Name: Sean
Age: 6
State: New Orleans, LA
Facility: Tulane Hospital for Children

Sean started having headaches and blurred visions when he was about five years old. His parents took him to numerous doctors who could find nothing wrong. Sean finely had an MRI which showed that he had an arachnoids cyst. These results brought Sean to us at Tulane. Unfortunately Sean’s results could not be read properly so Sean had to go through a second MRI. Sean was truly one of the bravest six year olds I have ever met. Sean remained brave throughout the diagnosis that he would have to have surgery to remove the cyst.
