My Lola was diagnosed with a liver shunt when she was 11 months old. I was scared to death. I immediately started researching all of my options and had the surgery done a month later. Lola is now a little over 6 and is doing great! Don't despair, it's very treatable and sounds like you are right on top of it. Make sure you are going to a reputable surgeon and ask lots of questions. Sending prayers your way!
