Grateful Patient Amelia Returns to Neuro ICU for the First Time Post-Surgery

Amelia was a young professional living her dream in New York City when she suddenly began experiencing debilitating seizures. She was diagnosed with New-Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus (NORSE), a life-threatening condition in which a person with no prior history of seizures develops persistent seizures. To control them, doctors implanted a vagus nerve stimulator, often called a "pacemaker for the brain," which sends mild electrical pulses to the brain through the vagus nerve. While the device successfully stopped her seizures, her recovery was slow, requiring a six-month stay at Mount Sinai, where she and her parents formed a special bond with the staff. In this video, Amelia returns to the neuro ICU for the first time since her ordeal. #WeFindAWay #neurosurgery #neuroicu #brainawareness #NewOnsetRefractoryStatusEpilepticus
