Hello everyone As you may know, our son Rafael is dealing with hydrocephalus. Our sweet boy is 2 months old and has undergone two major surgeries in his lifetime already. Hydrocephalus is a life altering, life threatening condition, caused by an abnormal accumulation of cerebral spinal fluid, resulting in pressure on the brain. The most common treatment for this condition is brain surgery to implant a medical device called a shunt, which has a 50% failure rate in children within the first two years. A shunt is not a cure as many patients endure multiple brain surgeries throughout their lifetime, some more than 100. Imagine life knowing that the next brain surgery lurks around the corner because your shunt could fail at any moment. No one should have to live like this. This is why I have created this fundraiser and also why I need your support. Please donate and help my family reach this goal. Your donation is greatly appreciated and will go far in helping us find a more sustainable solution and improve the life of our son, Remy, living with hydrocephalus.
