Drama

We're going through some tough times with Avery right now - she's pretty much been in the hospital since Saturday, and we still don't really know what's wrong. I've been texting updates to my facebook profile, so if any of you are on facebook, you can befriend me and keep up with Avery's status there. I'm also trying to update my other blog as often as possible, but that happens less frequently since I only have access to a computer when I'm at home.

How does a baby get hydrocepalus is there a casue or reason for it?

There are lots of possible causes, and sometimes it remains a mystery. In Avery's case it seems to have been a small cyst which blocked the flow of CSF and caused her hydrocephalus.
