Today, I got to witness a spinal tap being performed. About 27ccs of spinal fluid was successfully removed from mom. We should be seeing signs of improvement over the next 24-48 hours. Although these improvements will be temporary, they will indicate that doing the full surgery of installing a shunt will be beneficial. Did you know that spinal fluid is clear... like water? I guess thats why hydrocephalus is often referred to as water on the brain.
