 March 2011
Dear Community Member,

February was short but action-packed.  In this issue of Pathways, we announce the date and location of our 12th National Conference. We also discuss the importance of understanding vision problems related to hydrocephalus and how changes in the latest extension of tax cuts might affect you if you receive SSI benefits. As March 14th nears, we will be celebrating Brain Awareness Week by featuring a series of articles on the brain.

As usual, we offer the Hydrocephalus WALK Tip of the Month and invite you to check our upcoming WALKs and Support Group meetings.

With warm regards,

The team at the Hydrocephalus Association
