Vibrantly colored skull with a purple and blue glow, featuring a blue heart on the forehead. The skull has a mustache and beard, and its eye sockets are filled with a cosmic, starry effect.

Craniosynostosis?

Craniosynostosis (cra· nio· syn· os· to· sis ˌkrā-nē-ō-ˌsi-ˌnä-ˈstō-səs) is a condition in which one or more of the sutures close too early, causing problems with normal brain and skull growth. Premature closure of the sutures may also cause the pressure inside of the head to increase and the skull or facial bones to change from a normal, symmetrical appearance.

My daughter was born with Bi-Coronal Craniosynostosis. This means that the sutures above her eye were fused at birth. They normally do not do so until you are in your 40's. This has made things a bit more difficult for her. She has had 7 different surgeries just on her skull, and more to come. But she, like all cranio kids, is stronger than most, filled with love, and all around amazing. I am honored to be her dad, she makes me a better person.

This is also where I get my moniker from. I decided that since there was not a lot of information coming from dads of kids with cranio, that I would want others to see me, and hear me, when they think of it.

Streaming

On Pause… for the moment. But you will again be able to find me on twitch, playing games, talking about life, and just taking the edge off the day… soon.

Charity

2025 is my 7th year raising money for VCU Children’s Hospital in Richmond, VA. Any money that I make from content ALWAYS goes back to charity.

YouTube channel page for Cranio Dad Gaming with playlists including Alan Wake, Twitch Rebroadcast, Quest Life, HearthCraft Season 4, Subnautica, and HearthCraft 2.

Content Creation

Sometimes I create things that ONLY go on YouTube. Build videos, specials, and clips. Like Dungeons and Dragons, check out my archive there as well!

Three dads found each other on the Sea of Thieves and a bond was formed. Tales filled with laughter, and a fair amount of dad jokes have carved the way. Established in 2019, the MG Crew joined their communities together. Then Cranio had his discord hacked, and now they rebuild. Join us for fun, giveaways, and community over on discord.
