I personally try not to think about it.

Hi Liz,
Are you saying that the oldest people living with hyro now are in there early 50s? No older? Is that due to the fact that successful shunt surgeries never took place before then? I wonder how the older shunt receipiants health conditions are now compared to others in their age group. Thanks for the insight.
