Shocked Patient/Family Ignorance

I have had Hydrocephalus(and Epilepsy) my whole life(45yrs.). So, When an online friend was diagnosed last week with both, Hydrocephalus(and Epilepsy), I was completely blown away.

The sad thing is, that, while my online friend's sister, has Epilepsy, she n' her fiance seem to think that this won't be a lifelong thing to deal with.

My friend is going to nursing school, starting in the fall. I just hope she doesn't have all the problems I had at the 'collegiate' level.

Has anyone ever encountered someone thinking your Hydrocephalus would 'just go away'?
