French man with tiny brain
« on: July 20, 2007, 03:51:46 pm »
Hi everyone

I have just seen quite an unbelievable story with MRI images to back it up about a frenchman who had lead a reasonably normal life with a tiny brain which had adjusted to his hydrocephalous over the years . It just goes to show how adaptable and soft the brain can be ! You should be able to get the story by doing a search on yahoo for : Reuters ,french man with tiny brain . Maybe someone
more computer literate would be able to make a link of it to this site to enable all of us to see it . I am afraid that it is more than my tiny brain can manage to do . I know it is not An related but made me a lot more confident about my brains ability to adjust to my AN .

Oh my!  I wasn't sure what to expect when I clicked on this one.  Simply amazing.  I wonder what became of him?  The article is written in the past tense.
