My Name is Tommie: My Story of Hydrocephalus

By Julia Gressel-Murray

My Name is Tommie: My Story of Hydrocephalus is a simple teaching tool I used to support my son in his understanding of his hydrocephalus. I used it to expose him to different techniques to navigate through life, while embracing his uniqueness created by God in a simple story.

Here are some facts about children with hydrocephalus:

33% have visual impairments, 35% live with seizures, 27% have cerebral palsy. Hydrocephalus is the most common reason for brain surgery in children. (Hydrocephalus Association, February 2018)
