Please pray for my niece, Lisa's baby, Aiden. He has been having seizures since he was born.
The neurologists are going to remove the left temporal lobe, left occipital lobe and and part of the left parietal lobe. This is the area causing his seizures as this part of the brain did not finishing developing. Once the drs. do the surgery they will see if there is any more abnormal tissue that needs removed, etc.
The drs. told them all of his functions will transfer to the right side of his brain(!) and hopefully he will be seizure free. He will need a great deal of therapy and will be develpmentally delayed, but the idea is that with the therapy he will get caught up in development since he is so young. He will not have periphal vision on his right side, but they do not think he has it now anyway. He has another eye exam today at 2, another MRI that will assist the dr. in surgery, and a test later today determining how his brain processes energy. It was determined this was not genetic.
Thank you so much,
Carol
