Awareness this month

Fri, 11/01/2013 - 18:18

Hello Everyone!

In honor of Epilepsy Awareness Month, I have created a facebook page strictly dedicated to epilepsy awareness. It is called "Seize My Epilepsy". I don't have much experience with this type of thing. So, PLEASE feel free to join, add other helpful links, share your story, and even share pictures. On this page, I have shared pictures of some of the damage done by seizures and the medicine side effects for the non-believers. Please feel free to write and share. https://www.facebook.com/seizemyepilepsy  Thank you!

I shared so much of myself, especially pictures, in hope that people will realize how serious epilepsy and seizures are. Many people believe a person just has a seizure, gets up, and is fine. That is not the case and we are definitely lacking in awareness.
