Re: HELP.....Spina bifida and hydrocephalus
Sorry I only saw this now, how is your sis and baby doing? My little boy has hydrocephalus and Dandy Walker Syndrome which is a malformation of the brain.
We didn't know untill he was 14 months even though it was affected him since birth. He had an operaton last year an Endiscopically inserted ventriloscopy(sp) in his third ventricle. He has been attending Enable Ireland since January and has come on so much since. We aren't happy with him at the moment and are concerned about his head growth so will be going into Temple St in a few weeks for minor op, observation and specialist mri. I can't tell you abything about SB but hydro I know some about. Babies affected with hydro don't like certain textures, they are sensitive to light and VERY sensitive to sounds, well at least DS is. They work on all of these things in Enable by trying to de sensitise him to things he hates. DS never slept through untill his operation as the presure would build up at night and wake him. We use books to prop up his matress and think it helps, could also all be in our minds. It is very hard to come to terms with not having a "normal" child, we were very lucky as we managed to stay oblivious for his whole first year of life. The constant worry is very hard, not knowing when to start stressing about his head as a lot of the symptoms for hydro could be the symtoms for a million other things, like a virus, the terrible two's etc. I only recently came accross the SBHI and found them very good, I have been put in touch with a family supprt worker who is great and really knows her stuff. Let me know if your sister has any questions and I'll try to answer them for her.   Re: HELP.....Spina bifida and hydrocephalus
thanks so much DQ, theyre doing good, baby has had 2 operations, one to close her back, the 2nd to put a shunt in, she has recovered well from these, she has no movement in her legs, but shes the most beautiful little girl! she has had some seizures but theve dont tests and it isnt epilepsy, but it is a bit unnerving when she has one,.. other than that its just wait and see in terms of the brain to see how she is developing and she has to get physio for her legs but other than that shes quite like any other baby
