    The surgeons who were able to help Parker are truly special, and I am in awe of how they helped Parker to continue to improve. He is indeed a special little boy.

    I’m a retired nurse five of my twenty year career we’re spent on an oncology unit ,however I would occasionally go to the NICU when the need arise.
    It was so difficult for me to see these little ones in pain I’ve been retired for 40 years now and I can still remember the beautiful babies that struggled to stay alive and the dedication of their amazing parents...thank you for this what an incredible story.

      I grew up being in the hospital a lot, recovering from major surgeries and I still remember the wonderful nurses. Rosie and Toni were two of them who went above and beyond, during every surgery they were involved in. I’ve had dozens of surgeries and countless hospital stays and more often than not, the nurses pretty much treated me almost as if I was their own child. In the OR, they often held my hand until I fell asleep, while the anesthesiologist told a story. I’m very appreciative of people like the both of you. Thank you.❤

    I didn't experience this birth defect but I did experience the loss of a baby girl at 3 weeks old due to severe HLHS and renal failure. Unfortunately she didn't make it home with me, just home with the Lord. I miss her everyday of my life. She would be 18 in 5 days.

      @mysticalbeeson ปีที่แล้ว

      I am going 2 assume that his brain grew normally after they released all the pressure and fluid from his skull. It takes alot of brain to walk, talk ect. I was thinking the same thing but obviously he has thrived and no seeming lasting effects.

    • @mysticalbeeson
      @mysticalbeeson ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MuhammadShayanSalman44 hydrocephalus is a hard diagnosis, it is fluid on the brain and will keep the brain from growing normally. Once the fluid is released there are high chances of brain development after but not sure if the child could have lasting affects or not. In the end only GOD knows and it's up to you if you want to take the chance or not. Everyone needs to do what they think is right for their children!

  • @Chaseatoonie
    @Chaseatoonie หลายเดือนก่อน

    I had an irrational fear of my (future) children being born with hydrocephalus. My gramma's oldest sister died shortly after child birth because her son was born with severe hydrocephalus back in 1940. Her baby died the following day. Compound that terrifying family history story my little southern gramma retold so many times with my mom being a nurse. She'd gone through nursing school in the late 70's & she'd kept all of the books. The pictures of babies with hydrocephalus were so graphic & so heartbreaking. I went through my first 2 pregnancies convinced they'd just missed it despite my babies being fine. So wonderful that medicine has come so far that little guys like Parker have a fighting chance for a normal life now ❤

    This video skirts around what brain development happened after the surgeries, and what mental skills and abilities Parker has now. I would not expect 5% of a brain to be able to generate much if any growth in a newborn, even after the fluid was drained and the skull was opened. If I'm wrong, I'd love to know. Yes, he looks much better, he can walk, and he smiles a lot.

Her head is still a bit bigger than normal, but she is doing well, at Kindergarten, she is a Brilliant child. When the Place that manufactures the helmets, My Daughter and her husband were informed it would be $3,000.00 eventually she had to have a second one, thanks to the Go Fund Me within 5 days my Grandaughter had her helmet.
