At 10 months old, Sebastian contracted bacterial meningitis. It led to encephalitis and a 15-day coma. When he woke up, he had a tracheotomy and a feeding tube.
The damage was extensive. He lost his hearing completely and got bilateral cochlear implants at 18 months. He had to relearn everything from scratch. How to eat. How to crawl. How to walk.
By age 3, he still wasn’t speaking. His vestibular system was damaged, so he’d touch walls to keep his balance. And then came the seizures! 8 to 15 tonic seizures every. single. day.
He was on multiple anti-epileptic medications with minimal improvement.
His parents said the worst part wasn’t just the seizures. After each one, he’d become so dysregulated: angry, aggressive and he’d scratch them. They had to physically hold him just to keep him calm and safe.
He’d stopped laughing. Stopped dancing and the happy kid they knew was gone.
Doctors kept saying “let’s try another medication.”
We asked a different question: what if we address the neurological injury at its source instead of just managing symptoms?
After an intensive here (including SONG laser activated VSELs, EVs,
and a personalized home care protocol) Sebastian went from 15 seizures a day to less than 3.
And some days, zero.
His parents recently sent us this video from Costa Rica.
“He is now a more active, attentive, and happy little boy.”
His nervous system and brain are healing. 🩵
