How To Improve The Quality Of Life In A Half Brain Dead Person?

I ma wondering about the quality of life for someone with half a brain? My youner brother had a stroke at the age of 15 months, (many years ago) and he recently found out he only has half of his brain, the other half is completely dead , and he was devastated, as he has always wanted to learn to read, go to scholl, etc... He is an amazing person, with all he has been through.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your brother, but the clinical symptoms that you have described here does not make any clear sense, half dead brain is not the right term to described the clinical condition, you should be more specify and clear in description, if you mean this is kind of neurological condition like dyslexia, then this would be no problem and with proper treatment patient can have the better life, hope this information helps.
