Hydrocephalus Awareness Month

It is the eighteenth day of Hydrocephalus Awareness Month and I thought I would share two photos I found on Google that I thought were important to show you. So here are the photos. These photos are the photos I thought were important to share with you this Month because this Month Matters to me and to those living with Hydrocephalus. I can't wait to share something different with you tomorrow. Now the first photo, is showing you what someone like me would like with Hydrocephalus and what someone who isn't me looks like without Hydrocephalus. Now in case you can't read the words for that photo it says, The Ventricular System of the Brain. When the spinal fluid does not circulate normally, the ventricles enlarge and hydrocephalus results. No Hydrocephalus. Cerebrum. Lateral Ventricles. Choroid Plexus. Fourth Ventricle. Cerebellum. Child with Hydrocephalus. Ventricles enlarged with fluid.  September is Hydrocephalus Awareness Month and It Matters. I'm spreading Awareness by posting things about Hydrocephalus, and I am hoping by me doing that it will help educate those who don't know what Hydrocephalus is, and help them learn more about it. Hydrocephalus doesn't have a cure yet, and the only treatment for it, is a shunt.
