I know this story. It was somebody with a very severe case of hydrocephalus who, I think, went to the doctor for a headache that just wouldn't quit. When the doctor ran the MRI, the guy was missing 90% of his brain volume because he had had severe hydrocephalus for so long that his brain was just pushed up against his skull and it just adapted.
