Considering Left Temporal Lobectomy for 5 yr old son

Tue, 12/16/2014 - 11:20

Our son Joseph has a "Congenital Migratory Anomaly" which makes his left temporal lobe non-functional.  He has learning delays and 4-5 seizures per day while on medication.  We are seeking references from people with similar conditions who have undergone removal of the entire left temporal lobe. 

Did it work? Good experience/bad experience? Any recommendations?

Thank you!
