For Canton 5-year-old Ishaan Kiran, not even his battle with tuberous sclerosis complex can stop him from learning new languages.

"He speaks Gujarati. He speaks Tamil. He speaks Telugu. He goes to Telugu school. He speaks Hindu and English," says Ishann's mother, Khushbu Patel."He doesn't even care what happened to him some time ago. He lives to the moment. Happy-go-lucky," says Kiran Mohan, Ishaan's dad.

"We were wondering why were so many doctors coming up and what was going on," Mohan said."When they first told us, I was in denial. I was crying. I was thinking maybe they made a mistake," his mom said. "I first met him when he was an infant. Came in with seizures. We tried very different medications. It was really hard to control. He started having lots of side effects. His development was being slowed by the seizures. He wasn't really talking very much," Nolan says.
