FukLife Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Hey M2AF, Sorry i know i haven't been on much my sister recently got sent into the hospital. She has spinobifida. And well now they have to replace her shunt on her brain that has malfunctioned. For those who do not know what spinobifida is: Its when you are born with your spine split into two. They have to connected the spine back together, Then from that happening it causes fluid to build up on the spine witch drains to there brain. It can kill them obviously over time. So they add what they call a Shunt in Witch is a pump on the brain to drain the fluid into there stomach so they either can piss or shit it out. Well the shunt has malfunctioned so They will operate and replace it with a new. So i might not be on for a few more days or so. Sorry guys i hope i am missed =]. If any questions feel free to message me or email me at [email protected] Thanks. See you all soon =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
