Lora, I am very happy to hear your good news. And, while I don't know your nsg, I am very impressed with his behavior and attitude towards your son. Family can be so very important to the recovery process. I wish you well. And, while the hospital seems to be a bit of a distance from your home, keep in mind those wonderful quarterly meetings that Dr. Williams coordinates for adults living with hydrocephalus. Very imformative on post opporative concerns like employment, driving, etc. Good luck!
