I am now 38 and hoping for another 38 yrs. at least, have 5 shunts, they say that they can always find a spot. Oh the hair, it sucks but does come back. Hang in there.

I had my VP Shunt revision on May 12, 2010 this way my fourth revision and I'm 28. We can do anything. Personally my recovery is almost a year in and I'm still inproving my motor skills that. I somewhat lost after the surgery but the doctor said that normal for the amount of surgery's I had in total which is 4

@Cartoonsoldier83 I'm happy to see you are doing fine. This is why I like going online to network with others with a VP Shunt. it gives hope to all the little ones going through what we have to. Many blessings to you and I hope you have many many years to go with fewer surgeries. :)
