Michelle Mack, a 37 year old woman has lived a fairly normal life. Michelle’s parents say that they knew something was wrong with their daughter but until 10 years ago doctor’s hadn’t diagnosed Michelle.

At the age of 27, Michelle and her parents were informed that the entire left-side of Michelle’s brain was missing. “Michelle has fairly normal language abilities, certainly basic language abilities, she can construct a sentence, she can understand instructions, she can find words when she’s talking, but actually she has some trouble in some aspects of visual-spatial processing,” said Dr. Jordan Grafman, chief of the Cognitive Neuroscience Section at the National Institutes of Health.

While Michelle does have daily challenges that she is faced with, she works and is able to take care of herself and daily tasks.

What an inspiration!
