Wrestleview Live returns tomorrow night for our annual Christmas Party (aka the Chrimbus Craptacular) to help raise money for Lilliana Tedesco, the daughter of Mike and Victoria Tedesco, born with lipomyelomeningocele.
As we have done for nearly 10 years, the Wrestleview crew gathers to celebrate the Christmas season and take donations for the Tedesco family to help offset any expenses incurred by them as the baby goes in for spinal surgery.
Here is some brief information on what lipomyelomeningocele is:
Lipomyelomeningocele is a condition in which an abnormal growth of fat attaches to the spinal cord and its membranes.
Lipomyelomeningocele arises from an event very early in an embryo’s development. About the third week after conception, a sheet of cells called the neural plate folds to form a tube called the neural tube. The top of the neural tube becomes the brain, and the rest of the tube becomes the spinal cord. Lipomyelomeningocele occurs when an error in the closure of the neural tube allows a type of cell called mesenchyme to contact the inside of the neural tube. These cells prevent the tube from closing properly, disrupting the formation of meninges (membranes, or coverings) and bones around the spinal cord.
Disclaimer: We should note that this will be similar to an office Christmas party, meaning alcohol will be involved along with random discussion about wrestling, sports and more!
