SDR Surgery

Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy surgery for patients with spastic cerebral palsy.   Anyone heard of it?

A friend, of a friend, told my friend about it and she told me last week.  The friend's 9 yr old daughter had this surgery and I  guess it improved her life quite a bit. 

I haven't done any research on it but thought I'd pass the info on by posting it here:
