An operation to control her epilepsy left Karen Byrne with no control of her left hand. The 55-year-old from New Jersey, now suffers from Alien Hand Syndrome.
Her left hand, and occasionally her left leg, behaves as if it were under the control of an alien intelligence.

Karen had emerged from the operation with a left hand that was out of control. Karen was unlucky. After the operation, the right side of her brain refused to be dominated by the left.
She has now suffered from Alien Hand Syndrome for 18 years, but fortunately for Karen her doctors have now found a medication that seems to have brought the right side of her brain back under some form of control.
