Friends,

Finally yesterday on 8th Aug the surgery was performed and the shunt installed to my brother in law. He is stable and active till now. While sister says he is more active than before surgery. With all your wishes we are expecting a good recovery. I was very tensed. Sister was crying all through the day till he came back after the surgery. Now he is shifted to a room from post op ICU.

That's great news Sanju ; now you can all look forward to some gradual improvements. It's so touching actually seeing the person and knowing the challenges his poor brain has faced.

Hope your lovely brother-in-law will see better days now that the CSF is being safely diverted. Best wishes to you all.

Love Cat xx

Hurray, now things should be getting better for you day by day. Each little improvement is to be celebrated. It will be slow, but hopefully you will see a little improvement each time you visit. Sending all good wishes to you and your family.

Hello Sanju

So very pleased it went well and thank you for letter us see a photograph of your brother-in-aw. He looks very sad at the moment but it sounds like this procedure is eventually going to improve things.

Many many people here thinking of you all during these days which must be so horrid. But brighter things ahead.

Kind regards

Jules
