We are a family that happens to have a child born with an encephalocele. By the grace of God we are living life to the fullest as best we can.

Surgery update
Well, we finally made the BIG decision to have the bladder surgery. On Friday we went in and saw Dr. Julius Teague and had our surgery for the vesicostomy. We stayed over one night and came home about 3pm on Saturday. The surgery went well, things are definitely flowing. We will probably have to change diapers more often, but Daniel should be much more comfortable after the surgery pain is gone. We were told that Daniel being able to urinate for 10 years on his own was pretty good. Many kids like him that are born with a neural tube defect (encephalocele) have problems with their bladders.
