Jakey had Hydrocephalus when he was born, and it somehow began to correct itself, so I really never got into the DEEP research, but i know it can be a very scary diagnosis.... where do you live? If anywhere near Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD....GET IN THERE...they're AMAZING!!! Has there been any mention of a shunt to drain the fluid? Thoughts are w/ you..... keep strong! :) xoxo
