A 9-year-old Tauranga boy who spent five weeks in Starship hospital for two brain surgeries is home and back to his “normal, cheeky little happy self again”, his mother says.
Maverick Marshall was airlifted to Starship children’s hospital on March 5 after several seizures.
He was monitored for one night in the High Dependency Unit before being transferred back to the neurology ward.
Marshall said the type of aneurysm was “not common in children” and Maverick needed to be tested and monitored for a couple of weeks before being discharged.
