A 37 year-old woman, Michelle Mack, who was born without half a brain, is able to speak normally, has a great memory when it comes to dates and successfully finished high school.”It was very hard for me,” Michelle said. “It was very hard for me growing up. No one knew the truth about my brain.”
At the age of 27, Michelle Mack and her family came to know that the right part of her brain which was damaged before her birth had repaired on its own. National Institute of Health’s Cognitive Neuroscience Department chief, Dr. Jordan Grafman was the first person to diagnose Ms. Mack’s problems.
He said that the language abilities of Michelle Mack was almost similar to that of any other person. She does not have any problem in understanding the instructions or in finding words while talking. Dr. Grafman also stated that Ms.
Mack could frame sentences on her own. Vision spatial processing was the only problem for Michelle Mack. She was also unable to control her emotions like the other people did.

Michelle has difficulties controlling her emotions and still struggles with abstract concepts and becomes easily lost in unfamiliar surroundings but she has improved a lot since she started recovery. Michelle works, does most household chores and is fairly independent.
