But not so long ago, Eric wasn’t | fs given much time by most doc- tors to enjoy Jupiter or other members of the household.

The surplus fluid was drained away, relieving the pressure on the brain caused by block- age, and a plastic tube was in- serted to keep the accumulating fluid flowing from the head to the blood stream near the heart.
