It all makes sense. Hurley's dad was the smoke monster the whole time.

Same with me. I was born with hydro and had a shunt put in pretty much right away. Went 18 years without a problem and then my tubing broke in my neck and had an ETV done (basically laser a hole between 3rd and 4th ventricle to allow drainage). And I've now been shunt free (still there but not working) for 4 years.

Definitely take it for granted especially hearing/seeing people who have had surgeries into the 100s before they're even 18, and not being able to live normal lives
