Hey, Cheryl dont give up yet. One thing that you are absolutely right about is the fact that it can take up to a year for the brain to heal completely.
I just had my surgery on 11/12/2007 and the only seizures I have had were 4 tiny ones about 1 week after surgery (all in one night). I had forgotten to take my AED's the day before, anfd the brain was still healing. Nothing since though. So dont give up because you never know.
Good luck, Take care of your self and your son. I hope that the new year brings good things to you and your family. Scott
