Brain problem

I don’t know how to write generally to everyone in this site so just chose one of my regular groups which is this. Anyway my brother and his wife found out a few days ago that their son has an illness called Chiari Malformation. When we were told we thought what on Earth is that because we’d never heard of such a thing. Doc explained alittleto his parents but have an appointment with them soon. I feel so sorry for the poor little thing and it’s really worrying. Has anybody ever heard of this or know anybody who has this?

It is more common in people that have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, so you might find people in that community that know more about it.
