Summary
Parents Bill and Meghan Longhenry share the deeply spiritual and scientific story of their daughter Millie, who was born with alobar holoprosencephaly (HPE), a fatal brain malformation. Defying all medical prognosis, Millie is thriving through faith, functional neurology, and regenerative medicine. The family recounts impossible miracles, including a spontaneous reversal of an intestinal malrotation and Millie's rapid neurological development, proving that "structure does not equal function.” This conversation highlights the power of neuroplasticity and hope over diagnosis.

Dr. Brandon Crawford sits down with Bill, Meghan, and Theo Longhenry to share the miraculous journey of their daughter, Millie, who was born with alobar holoprosencephaly (HPE)—a severe, often fatal brain malformation. Despite being placed on hospice and told she had no hope of development, Millie's life is a living testament to the convergence of faith, neuroplasticity, and regenerative medicine.
The Longhenry family offers a raw, faith-fueled perspective on confronting an impossible diagnosis. They recount the emotional trauma of being told by medical experts to "take her home and prepare for her to die" and the subsequent decision to reject a "comfort-only" path, choosing instead to pursue aggressive, unconventional healing methods. The conversation highlights the foundational role of faith, particularly the family's reliance on Psalm 23, which Millie visibly responds to with profound joy.
Key Takeaways
- Structure Does Not Equal Function: Millie's development (talking, seeing, interacting) is medically impossible based on her brain malformation (alobar HPE). This progress confirms the immense power of neuroplasticity and proves that structure does not determine function in the brain.
- The Gut Malrotation Miracle: A medically impossible, spontaneous reversal of a severe malrotation of the small intestine occurred between imaging sessions. The family attributes this healing, which defied surgical necessity, to prayer and faith.
- Healing the Genetic Code with Light: Recovery is influenced by controlling factors that govern the genes, specifically the mitochondrial DNA and the bio photon field (information transfer via light). Functional neurology and light therapy target these systems, suggesting a pathway for regenerative potential even in genetic conditions.
- Value of Cohesive Care: The family found success by choosing a single, intensive approach that utilizes a cohesive team of specialists (neurologists, OTs, PTs) working together daily on the child's developmental blueprint, minimizing the overstimulation and disorganization caused by fragmented therapy across multiple places.
