We received an update from Ben's Mom. She said the surgeries were very successful, but still a long way to go of course -
"There was talk about other surgeries in the future that he will need, but for now he is only having a few seizures a day which is a huge improvement compared to seizures everything 30 minutes. We are making some med adjustments and going off one med. we saw Ben off the seizure meds briefly in between surgeries and it was quite amazing, he was a whole new person. So we hope to get him off some of his bad meds.
He is recovering really good, his left side is very weak but it was weak before just going to take some time. We have lots of follow up test, MRI, erg eye test and more VEEG in the next 3 months. All in all the surgery was a huge success!! He seems much more aware now and seems to be seeing better.
We can't tell you enough thank you and to all those donating items for Ben how greatly we appreciate it. The trip was a lot more costly then we anticipated and everything you guys have done has helped tremendously."
