'It was very scary, because you just can't imagine what your child will be like after such a dramatic brain surgery,' mother Shelly Mott told Ann Curry on NBC's Today Show.

Without surgery in the first few months of life, the child won't ever see well with that eye, even if he or she has surgery later in life.

I bought shoes, pens and mathematical instrument boxes that were needed to get children back to school and was also able to give out of this money financial help for a child who needed heart surgery.
