Brothers seizures and upcoming craniotomy

Wed, 07/09/2014 - 15:23

My younger brother has been an epileptic for the last 8 years. He was jumped at 16 and has suffered seizures since. He's had them all, grand and petite mals, focal, and tremors. Now we just found out they want to do a craniotomy. Has anyone had a loved one or friend go through this? And if so is there anything you can tell me about it?
