I have not found any indication that one hemisphere is typically larger.

I don't understand your question. Until emptiness? Are you talking about hydrocephalus or some other disease state?\n\nEDIT: Hmm. Now I better understand your question, but I have to admit I don't know the answer, it's not my area. It does sound rather severe. A Neurosurgeon is the best person to ask, if you have not already had an appointment with one. Is this congenital (child was born with this)?

I have known a few people who have had head injuries. It basically depends on what part of the brain is injured. I would suggest finding a book or website that shows you the different areas of the brain to see what functions could be impaired. You can also ask his doctor or his family to try to get the answer. Good luck, and I hope he's ok.

well\nit depends on for how many days and how frequent are you gettign teh symptom.\nthe best doctor for this is to consult is a  neurologist, many times there is no need of treatment.

Funny you should ask.  I have been answering a lot of questions here, but two years ago I was in exactly the same situation as you are now.  My wife (28 at the time) was in a car accident and ended up with TBI.  I was desperate to hear some stories, since I knew the neurosurgeons would never commit to any prognosis.  My wife stayed in a coma for 9 days and then slowly started waking up.  Initially, she had difficult talking, concentrating, walking etc, but over the course of six weeks, her physical therapists got her back to a great shape.  She continued her recovery and today the accident is just a memory. She is back to herself 100% and we just had a baby boy.  So I want to give you some hope.  The thing with TBI is that it is very unpredictible.  Her MRI looked quite bad apparently (she had the dreaded diffuse axonal injury) and yet she recovered fully.  I'd say she was back to 90% at six months and has been at 100% since then.  In retrospect, there were two important things.  She had excellent neurosurgical care that made sure the intracranial pressure never got too high.  I don't know how recent your daughter's accident was, but if it is days, that is absolutely the key thing.  Inquire about those pressures if you can.  The second thing was a comprehensive physical, speech and occupational therapy program.  Make sure your daughter gets the best.  \n\nAll the best to you and your daughter and never loose any hope!

Follow up with a neurologist.  They specialize in this matter.

I have had the same thing and was not given an explanation. The onset of stroke is accompanied by slurred speech and loss of balance.

Every case is different.  It can depend on several things, like the total health of the individual.  The biggest issue can be blood clots or clotting period.  The Spinal fluid that flows through our brain has to have a path for it to flow freely or it will clot.  The condition can get worst, yes, but with proper care and diagnosis early the person can live with little problems. I pray that you will be fine.

I was once told if you are left handed you use the right side of your brain and if you are right handed you use the left side.  So, I guess it would depend.

A stroke or TIA might be accompanied by other signs as well, such as slurred speech, vision loss, numbness, that sort of thing.  Halting speech like you describe is evidence of a number of other mental conditions.

Cerebral palsy though not curable has a much better prognosis now than before. From your question your child appears to have hemiplegic cerebral palsy which has a better prognosis.\n\nYou have to see a Physiatrist/physiotherapist and watch the exercises being done and train your child at home. The exercises will be changed in a step by step manner depending on the progress your child is making. She also needs to see lots of colors, hear lots of sound and music.,made to feel different objects and textures. This will require a lot of patience and effort on your part but I'm sure that eventually the outcome will be good.

YOUR LEFT SIDE OF YOUR BRAIN IS TRYING TO TAKE OVER THE RIGHT SIDE....

Usually about 6 months from the time of diagnosis, but it can vary anywhere from a few days to 12 months.  It depends on the person, how long they have had it, where it has spread from, where it might have originated, etc.

It is determined by which hemisphere of your brain is most dominent.  By the way, left handed--dominent right brain individual, right handed--dominent left brain individual.  Some people can learn to use the other hand (such as the case of amputee victims) but they can never use it as well.

Actually that sounds like it could be aphasia (if you are able to prounounce sounds correctly).\n\nAphasia is a broad category of disorders, but one type is where your words come out all wrong and you get "toung tied".\n\nTreatment depends on what caused it. Sometimes people have had head injuries, and their treatment can differ than someone with out a brain injury.\n\n... so you might want to look into it more.\nHope this helps!
