According to Little People, Big World host Matt Roloff, Zach Roloff is getting ready for an “essential” operation.

The 61-year-old reality star posted a picture of Zach with his kids on Instagram and explained that Zach, 32, is changing his shunt.

According to John Hopkins Medicine, a shunt is a hollow tube surgically implanted in the brain or occasionally in the spine to help with cerebrospinal fluid drainage and redirection to another part of the body where it can be reabsorbed. The treatment of hydrocephalus might involve this procedure.

The family has not provided any information regarding the course of treatment. Still, a shunt revision may reduce pressure on the brain and address symptoms like trouble walking, mild dementia, and loss of bladder control.

“The family has maintained constant communication and conversation. We ask for your prayers as Zach has his shunt modified in such a significant way. Matt wrote the caption for this image. “Zach is in good hands because Tori is fighting bravely for what is best for him. Please join me in praying for Zach’s speedy and complete recovery. “.
Zach’s wife, Tori, also posted about the procedure on social media, pleading with followers to pray for the couple.

 

In a now-deleted Instagram Story, Tori, now 31, stated, “We discovered Zach’s shunt needs repair and will have surgery in the morning. ”.

The TLC show’s star claimed she “hesitated” in informing her fans, but she did so because “I believe in prayer and might need some tomorrow. ”.

Tori continued, “Even though they say it’s a routine procedure, I have no idea what to expect, and Zach and I are anxious. “.


Although it seems to be a severe problem, we have confidence in his doctors’ knowledge and skill. Anything you could pray for us would be greatly appreciated. “.
