Hello @rg46 and welcome to Connect. I can certainly understand your concern for your daughter's seizures and also for the surgery. It does sound like a difficult surgery to consider, especially for a youngster.

We have another member on Connect, @mmas, whose daughter had this surgery. Here is a link to her post explaining her daughter's experience,

Thank you for the connection. No our daughter was inly diagnosed with Epilepsy in May of 2020, however her seizure type, frequency and duration drastically changed for the worse on December 31st of 2021. With medication not working to manage and or control her seizures, we are left with the difficult conversation of surgery.
