My daughter has had seizures her entire life. [After] tons of medication, a VNS and everything under the sun, surgery was literally the best thing we decided to do. It took at least a year before we made the decision. The thought of putting my daughter through brain surgery [hemispherotomy] was scary. It's been 18 months since my daughter had surgery and so far no seizures.
Mia has been seizure free for over a year and a half after undergoing posterior quadrant disconnection. While she initially underwent temporal lobectomy, a second surgery was needed to make her seizure free.
Shanaya is doing fantastic ... and she is the happiest little girl ever! We are almost 32 months post-surgery [and] seizure-free since then. We are forever grateful for all the team who worked together on Shanaya. I don't have enough words to express my appreciation to Dr. Luke who is a very, highly skilled surgeon. [His] kindness, sincere caring, and concern make everything better and are a great encouragement.
Matthew's 3 year anniversary of his AVM was yesterday. He graduated from Michigan two weeks ago with degree in Mechanical Engineering. Thank you [Dr. Luke] for being such a great doctor and allowing him to reach this day.
Joham was having more than 200 seizures daily and constant seizure activity during sleep but underwent hemispherotomy several weeks ago and has been entirely seizure free since. Mom is thrilled that he is interactive and playful and speaking in full sentences. Excited to see what the future holds for this strong-willed and intelligent little boy.
Robert is doing well after a very complex craniotomy lasting several hours in which we removed a tumor filling his third ventricle. This is a deep seated area of the brain but complete removal is typically curative.
