A new children’s book, launched by Spina Bifida Hydrocephalus Ireland (SBHI), has a dual aim – to highlight the importance of not letting a disability define you, while also promoting understanding and awareness of two very serious conditions.

Meet Mylo focuses on the unique relationship between dog Mylo and his two friends Michael and Mary who live with SB/H. The book is the first in a series of short stories supporting children living with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus to better communicate key aspects of their conditions to those around them.
