When Lucas’s parents learned at 20 weeks that their son had spina bifida, they were surprised and unsure what to expect. His mom, Viva, recalls those early days as overwhelming, but the family found support and guidance through the Texas Children’s Fetal Center®.

Lucas underwent fetal surgery and began his care journey with a team of specialists. “The specialists are not only experts but also compassionate people who truly care about our son and our family,” Viva shared.

They plan to remain connected to Texas Children’s Spina Bifida Program throughout his life, knowing he will always have a consistent team by his side. “To the team at Texas Children’s—thank you. Thank you for your expertise, for treating our son as more than just a diagnosis, and for walking with us during some of the hardest and most uncertain times of our lives.”

She also offers encouragement to other families: “It’s okay to grieve, it’s okay to be scared, and it’s okay to take things one day at a time. You’ll find a strength you didn’t know you had, and your child will surprise you with joy in ways you can’t imagine.” ❤️

For families affected by spina bifida, knowing where to turn for specialized care is critical from the very start.

Cruze and her husband learned at her 12-week appointment that their son, Captain, had spina bifida. They immediately focused on ensuring he would receive the best care and were referred to the Texas Children’s Fetal Center® for fetoscopic in-utero surgery.

Captain underwent the procedure with Dr. Whitehead, repairing his neural tube defect before birth. By a miracle, he was born with no symptoms, though his care continues closely. Recently, he developed hydrocephalus, and Dr. Whitehead performed an ETV/CPC procedure that they hope will be a one-and-done treatment.

The family plans to utilize Texas Children’s Spina Bifida Program throughout Captain’s life, knowing he will have a team by his side every step of the way.

Cruze shares a message for other families: “I know it is scary at first. However, once you find the place that treats your child like their own, you will feel at peace. Our son is perfect to us, and if you didn’t know any better, you’d think he was a perfectly healthy baby.” ❤️

Abigail and her husband first learned their daughter Scottie had spina bifida during a routine prenatal screening in October 2024, a diagnosis that brought many questions and uncertainties about her future. Determined to give Scottie the best care, they turned to Texas Children’s.

In December 2024, Scottie underwent fetoscopic in-utero surgery with Dr. Belfort and Dr. Whitehead. She spent a month in Houston receiving specialized care, and her treatment continues with weekly physical therapy to strengthen her lower legs and close monitoring of her brain due to a risk of hydrocephalus. Her monthly MRIs show a stable and healthy brain, giving her family confidence as she grows.

Abigail shares: “Scottie is truly a happy and thriving little baby—so much of this we attribute to the Texas Children’s team and the success of her procedure. For this, we will forever be grateful.”

She adds: “If there’s one thing I could tell other Spina Bifida families, it’s that their child is going to be the absolute light of their life… Spina Bifida does not define who Scottie is, rather, a small piece to her story.”

Scottie’s family plans to utilize Texas Children’s Spina Bifida Program throughout her life, knowing she will have a team by her side every step of the way.

This October, in honor of Spina Bifida Awareness Month, we share Scottie’s story and the ongoing support families receive at Texas Children’s. ❤️
