Hi, I have Glen Doman's book about what to do for the brain injured as it was recommended when my son was little. It is great. I would also like to recommend for your friend to do some homework on hyperbaric oxygen therapy for her child. This stimulates the child's own stem cells to move in and do repair work where the damage is, as does the taking of glyconutrients at a young age especially. (Ref to Mannatech's ambrotose).
If your friend is near a "Gymbaroo" center this also would be good for her to take her little one.
All the best. Each child is a special treasure, made in the image of God. Ref: Genesis., The Bible.
Kindly,

PS: One last thing, Probiotics help big time as opportunistic 'bad bugs' play a role in damaged tissue, the "good" probiotics help to turn things around.
