Sadie underwent brain surgery to remove a benign tumour at the age of 4 when she was a child.

She had a normal, happy and healthy childhood.

As a teenager, Sadie became sick and when she told her dad, who is a doctor, that she was “zoning out” and feeling confused, he recognized these signs as seizures.

Doctors determined that Sadie ’s hippocampus and amygdala were not working properly, as the tumour had impacted those sections of her brain.

They also discovered she had been having up to 100 seizures a day.
