My daughter, Abby, is having brain surgery on Monday. She's 4. She was born with a condition called toxoplasmosis, and from my understanding it's an infection in the brain that occurs before birth. She has had one brain surgery in the past ( when she was a few months old) and had a shunt placed in her brain to drain extra fluid. She also has hydrocephalus, which means that spinal fluid builds up on her brain and it doesn't filter properly like a normal brain does. She's having a new shunt put in since the one she has now keeps getting clogs for some reason... and when that happens she gets very sick. I'm worried to near death. Please keep her in your prayers!!
