Mum feared daughter, 6, 'wouldn't know who she was' after brain surgery

A mum feared her young daughter wouldn't know who she was anymore after she underwent complex brain surgery.

The ECHO previously spoke to the family of Emily Andrew, from St Helens, who suffered from seizure epileptic seizures. In September 2021, Emily had just started primary school, and her family were looking at possible surgery to help ease her debilitating seizures.

Emily's condition was first discovered when she had to be rushed to hospital after having a "funny turn" when she was just ten-months-old. Emily's mum Jess Page said she "wasn't really herself", and that her head was "slightly dropped, she was dribbling, her lips were smacking and her eyes were glazed over."
