Rasmussen's Encephalitis

Rasmussen's Encephalitis - The Search for a Cure

A good friend, and fellow Rasmussen's Dad is well underway in a concentrated effort to find a cure for Rasmussen's Encephalitis. Seth Wohlberg, whose daughter Grace had a hemispherectomy last year has created the RE Children's Project. Please check it out, and support this fine organization.

The RE Children's Project was founded in 2010 to increase awareness regarding Rasmussen's Encephalitis (RE) for the primary purpose of supporting scientific research directed towards a cure. The organization also supports research dedicated toward the recovery process following hemisphrectomy surgery, a life altering surgery that is the only known "cure" for the disease.
