​Brianna Bodley has been suffering from an uncommon disease called Rasmussen's encephalitis, according to a GoFundMe page created by her mother.

A 6-year-old girl with a rare brain disease recently underwent a surgery in California in which half of her brain was disconnected in an effort to help stop her daily seizures.

On Sept. 28, doctors performed a functional hemispherotomy on the young girl after other treatments for her seizures were not successful. Since the surgery, Brianna ‘s left side of her body is"turned off due to disconnecting half of her brain" and she is going through intense rehab to learn to walk and move her left arm, her mother said. She will also be going through speech therapy.
