I have a healthy interest in all things relating to intractable (med resistant) epilepsy and the (limited) treatment options available for those courageously battling persistent seizures. It comes with the territory of loving someone in that community.
Which is why I ate up the article a fellow Seizure Mommy and friend forwarded to me the other day. She knows me well!
The story is about a boy and his family’s journey to seizure freedom via a groundbreaking new lazar surgery. As in…only 5 kids have ever been candidates to date! Trevy’s brain malformation was much too extensive and the surgery Dr. Rockstar recommended was the best choice for us.
But for others…
If you have a healthy interest in brain surgery like I do…you’ve gotta click this link. You can read the text. But for what it’s worth, I found the video edition beautiful. Squeezed the tears right up from my sappy spot. And I’ve heard that crying is cleansing for the soul…

There's an early 20's girl from my hometown....teeny tiny rural AB.....who went to CA the week Bup had surgery....for her own lazer brain surgery. Her family was fundraising as of course it's super expensive and AB Health Care does not cover any of it. I haven't heard how she's making out yet.
