Northview Student Doing Well After Brain Surgery Wednesday In Miami
November 19, 2008
We’ve received word from Miami that Nathan Therrell’s brain surgery Wenesday went well.
Nathan, a freshman at Northview High School, underwent surgery to remove a hypothalamic hamartoma, also called an “HH”. The HH is not a tumor, nor is it a cancer; it is a tissue growth. Nathan’s HH was about the size of a grain of rice.
Doctors believe they removed the entire HH.
“He still has a long way to go, but for now all is good,” his aunt Kelly Sims tells NorthEscambia.com. “Keep him and his family in your prayers.”
