Wow! Absolutely fascinating, thank you for sharing, I am totally amazed at what can be done with surgery, with the human body, especially the brain  I wonder how far they will have progressed and how much more they will know by the time my children grow up.
All the very best for the preparation, the surgery and your recovery, you'll be in my thoughts.
