This is an udpate on Kaci Caves' Story in 1999, a couple of years after her Hemispherectomy Brain Surgery. Kaci suffered from a rare Neurological Disease called Rasmussen's Encephalitis. The treatment to stop intractible seizures was a Hemispherectomy. Kaci had a left hemispherectomy. The left side of the brain is usually responsible for speech as in this case.

  • We saw Kaci on the set of The Doctors in 2008. She is very smart and attractive young lady. There is a Youtube video (4 parts of that show on Youtube) Search under Hemispherectomy.
