Docs put shunt in TV legend’s skull to drain excess fluid
BELOVED TV funnyman Tim Conway dropped out of showbiz six years ago because a severe brain condition left him so nauseous and dizzy he could barely walk.
Now sources reveal the 83-year-old comic, who starred as bumbling Ensign Parker on the 1960s sitcom McHale’s Navy and later kept Carol Burnett’s audiences in stitches, suffers from hydrocephalus — or water on the brain — and has a valve in his head to release fluid squishing his brain!
In 2009, a doctor secretly “implanted a shunt that drains it,” says Tim’s former publicist Roger Neal. “Two years ago, they put a new valve on the shunt to keep it working properly.”
Commonly triggered by a stroke, brain tumor, meningitis or serious head injury, the condition sends spinal fluid flooding into the skull, stressing the brain. The intense pressure causes severe headaches, vomiting, blurred vision, memory problems and difficulty walking.
