Doctors, could you help? Mbali's childhood-onset epilepsy

Seeking a second medical opinion on childhood-onset epilepsy; a 20-minute call or written review would help.

Mbali was diagnosed with childhood-onset epilepsy in December. The local team has recommended immediate surgery. We understand it's an important decision, and we'd like to be sure. We're asking if an oncologist - anywhere in the world - would be willing to review Mbali's reports and give a short opinion (a call of 20 minutes or a written summary). We'd gladly pay for any cost to your practice that we can afford. We have scans, lab reports and the doctor's notes ready to share securely. We understand that you can't give formal medical advice without an examination, and we're simply looking for guidance on questions to ask and options to explore. Thanks for even thinking about it. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

                    So sorry you're going through this, Pieter. This could happen to any of us. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
