Hello! I'm sitting here at Duke Hospital in North Carolina where we've been for 32 days now. My son, Warren, just turned one last week. He had an AVM rupture which led us to brain surgery one week ago today. He also was placed with a shunt just yesterday morning. I'm just looking for anyone's advice on anything, really. This is all brand new to me. I fear many things, but one is an complication with the shunt when my son isn't yet old enough to tell me what's wrong. Of course, at this point... he's still on so many meds that he's not himself at all. We hope to not be here more than another week and then we're off to a rehab center for a few weeks of therapy. If anyone has been down that road, I've love some information on what to expect. This is very new, as we're still in the hospital. I just found this website and thought it could offer some good support.

Thanks!
Amy (Warren's Mom)
