Jay having been an RN I understand hyrocephalus and shunts and what you wrote is absolutely correct. The fluid is relieved from pressing on the brain by exiting into the shunt and entering the peritoneal cavity where the body reaborbs the fluid. Greg's Brother even with the rehab I have my doubts about him returning home. He seems quite happy there and safe. Phillipa
