Hi there, my nephew, a 5 years old kid, was suffer from brain tumor surgery since a month ago. He is now suffer for Hydrocephalus.
He is still in the ICU. He has gone through 7 surgery since admitted to hospital on last month, to remove the brain tumor, and to put in the shunt. The shunt was failed at the first operation, hence doctor decided to remove it out at the 2nd operation. After the 2nd operation, he was suffer from Hydrocephalus, later on he has gone through few more surgery to drain the water out from the brain. Last week, doctor has try to put in the shunt for second time, but 3 days later, the shunting failed to drain the water out again. The neurology doctor explained that he could not find the reason why the shunting was failed. The entire family is very worried for him and pray hard for him. Is there any help we can get from here? Any experience to share with? Any info that we can refer to? Any doctor to recommend? Please help us to save his life. The kid has been suffered too much from the surgery.
