My sister was diagnosed with moyamoya in Dec 97 (41 years old). She had a big incident in Feb 01 which left her blind, on briefs, feeding tube, and a quadraplegic. She has come a long way but still a quad. She had the left side done in Dec 02, the right side Jan 03 at Mayo Clinic. I always wonder if she should have had the surgeries before the big incident. I would encourage anyone to have the surgeries. She was on her way home in 3 - 4 days.
