My Deni. You can see the head is quite a bit wider at the top and his fore head protrudes out a bit. Unfixed his head will never be able to grow wider only longer.
The back of Deni's head (which is the first bit I notices when he was a baby) You can see that it just kinda sticks out and is not smooth. And that the middle of his head is a bit wider than the rest. When you rub the back of his head you can feel that your hand goes over a bump and you can nearly grab onto the bit that sticks out.
Side view of Deni's head. You can see the lumps and bumps it is not smooth. His fore head sticks out further that the rest of his face and then the head dips down after the fore head. And at the back you can see that it goes out quite far and then at the bottom it goes out further. Unfixed his head will continue to grow out the front and the back.
Deni's pressure monitor on his brain showed that there is significant pressure being placed on his brain. His eye test have shown that the optical nerve is raised and swollen and so are the disks at the back of his eyes. If left untreated Denver will go blind, suffer more headaches, behavioural problems, loss of speech and eventually his brain will have too much pressure. His brain is currently trying to grow anyway it can but is fast running out of room.
First day at kinder. If you know what you are looking for you can see his head is just not the right shape.
My beautiful amazing boy. We are so proud of you.
