Gibson Huston faces rare hemispherectomy to curb seizures
The Huston family seeks a radical cure for Gibson, a child with hemimegalencephaly causing frequent seizures. Doctors at UCLA Medical Center plan to remove and disconnect most of his left brain, hoping to preserve cognition at the cost of physical impairments. The procedure carries risks, but experts say cognitive outcomes may improve while children retain better brain plasticity. A fund supports Gibson’s roughly one million dollar surgery and post op therapy as his school community rallies with hugs and hope.
