    Two things:

    1. I’ve known multiple hemispherectomy patients. In all cases, the hemispherectomy caused severe and profound defects, but none were done as early as described in the article. In every case, it was the only option. For one patient, the need was because of trauma, and the skull could not be properly repaired. The result was, if you imagine the skull as a sphere as seen face-on, the upper R quadrant was removed and skin grafted on to cover the wound. There was this overwhelming urge to stare and to run away. I did neither, but I had to struggle.

Rudy, a young lady in whom you could feel the Holy Spirit at work, used dance to highlight certain passages, reinforcing overtones of meaning and get the congregation to resonate with what the singer intended. At the end, as she reached out to the congregation with a sincere, glowing smile, you could see what God’s offer of rest meant to her and what it could mean to you. This use of liturgical dance was not a gimmick, time filler room decoration, but part and parcel of the worship of God and the proclamation of His Word. I wish my friend F.D. could have been there to see that liturgical dance can be the antithesis of lame. [...]
