Helen Butler donated paintings to the neurology department after undergoing brain surgery that has allowed her to live an independent life.

An artist who underwent a life-changing brain surgery has donated paintings to the neurology department at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

Helen said: “I cannot thank the neurology department at the QEUH enough for the treatment and care they provided for me. “Now I have managed to sell paintings around the world to help raise awareness and funding for epilepsy and brain surgery.” “I now act as mentor for other people looking at brain procedures and if it wasn’t for this group, I may not have decided to have the surgery. The operations sound really daunting but since I have been through that journey I can show other people through my art that it can be a good thing.

Dr Russell Hewett, Neurologist and Helen’s consultant, said: “I would like to share my thanks to Helen for the kind donations of these excellent art pieces that will look fantastic in the neurology department.
