Hey there! I'm Sean, age 38. I was shunted at 3 months of age. I was
married in 1999 and my daughter was born in 2000. My last shunt revision
was in 2002 and fortunately the only thing little Zophie seemed to inherit
from me is my poor eyesight (she started wearing glasses when she was 10
months old). Still, depression also runs in my family so we shall see. :-(
