In some cases, brain surgery can provide permanent relief when other treatments fail.
In the fall of 2018, 21-year-old Isabel Gascue was riding along in a car when suddenly everything went black.
“I was thankful that I crashed into two parked cars; that, thankfully, nobody was injured,” she said.
That first episode was not the last and she was ultimately diagnosed with epilepsy.
“It was ‘wow’, it was shocking, it was weird, it was ‘Like me? I have epilepsy?’” Gascue said.
She was among the 30% of epilepsy patients who did not respond well to medication making her a potential candidate for surgery.
