Little People Big World mom Tori Roloff is busy raising her kids, Jackson and Lilah. Just like their father, Zach, the two suffer from dwarfism. Tori has previously mentioned how difficult it is to rear children with dwarfism. Nevertheless, she’s trying her best to be the mom her children adore. Despite her efforts, she’s worried about Lilah’s medical condition. In the sneak peek of Tuesday’s episode, we see Tori in tears while discussing her Lilah’s serious health condition. Let’s dig in to know more.
Little People Big World: Tori Worried About Lilah’s Health
In the sneak peek of the latest LPBW’s episode, we see Tori talking about Lilah’s degrading health. She kickstarts by saying that her daughter hasn’t been keeping well. She has had to throw up quite a few times. While Tori is seated with Amy and Zach at their kitchen table, she explains how there’s something wrong with Lilah. Something doesn’t add up as I look at her, Tori added. On the other hand, Zach said in his confessional that such instances do not ring a bell for him. He has grown up dealing with such situations and so he remains relatively calm as compared to his wife.
Lilah Might Have Hydrocephalus, What It Is?
Tori admits that raising kids with dwarfism has made her hypersensitive. Every minute sign makes her raise her eyebrows in anxiety. She further explained how she is always too cautious of exposing her children to anything, such as heat. This could create some visible problems for the children, after all. Tori is more concerned for Lilah because she is not of the ‘average height.’ The probability of her daughter having hydrocephalus always stays at the back of his mind. Zach, too had it when he was younger. This one condition can draw a lot of possibilities for the little girl. And Tori is just worried about all those vague possibilities.
Later, Tori explains what does she mean by hydrocephalus. She revealed that it is a medical condition where the water from the brain is not properly drained. She further explained how it is not a good thing to have because the pressure on the brain can do so much damage. Although Zach remains optimistic about their daughter’s condition, Tori believes otherwise. According to her, she’s the mom and prone to worry all the time. Later, she broke into tears as her mother-in-law held her comforting her.
