Hi
welcome to HCM
cerebral atrophy means decrease of brain size( less cells , neurons etc) . Cerebral atrophy can not be reversed .Your baby needs developmental, rehabilitative, neurologic care, and early intervention services so that the best possible outcome can be achieved , how much can be achieved depends upon degree of damage to child. Normal development as on a normal child can not be achieved, best possible development for your child should be tried.
thanks
