== History ==
The Hemispherectomy Foundation was founded in 2008, when a six-year-old girl, Jessie Hall,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hopkinschildrens.org/tpl_news.aspx?id=4950 )〕 was hospitalized with Rasmussen's Encephalitis at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Jessie was undergoing hemispherectomy surgery (removal or disconnection of one-half of the brain) to control continuous seizures.
Although The Hemispherectomy Foundation is based in the United States of America,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sgvtribune.com/ci_12549505 )〕 it provides support globally.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.weatherforddemocrat.com/local/local_story_133152906.html )〕
Ben Carson, M.D., Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery, at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland is the Honorary Chair of the foundation's Medical Advisory Board. He assumed this position in January, 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.star-telegram.com/health/story/1190249.html ) 〕
