Dylan Catania was born with what his surgeon called “a big, bad brain.” Would severing half of it give him a chance at a normal life?

Times photographers Francine Orr and Don Kelsen spent months with Dylan Catania and his family, documenting his parents’ decision to go forward with surgery and the long weeks of recovery. Their video and photos give readers an intimate look at the journey. Read Molly Hennessy-Fiske’s story or view photo gallery.
