Doctors STILL can’t treat 2-week-old baby with a never-before-seen brain tumor
A two-week-old premature baby is a complete puzzle to doctors after being born 17 weeks early with a significant and mysterious tumor on her brain stem.

Addison Faith Richburg was born in a hospital in Manning, South Carolina on August 12, just 33 weeks into her mother’s pregnancy.

But before she was delivered doctors noticed her head had already grown to the size it should be at 39 weeks into pregnancy.

Suspecting fluid reservoir on the brain, doctors did scans and realized that Addison had hydrocephalus, meaning a buildup of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain.
