Did you know that this week is National Epilepsy Week?

Its a week dedicated to raising awareness about Epilepsy.

I know a lot more about epilepsy than I wish and you know what?

 

Its as simple as that!

I have mentioned before on here that Livvy suffered from seizures. They constantly plagued her life. At times she would have over 100 seizures a day.  They effected everything she did. her balance, her ability to walk, even her eating. We nearly lost her numerous times to her seizures.

Today many of my friends children suffer with seizures, their lives are scarred by this illness.

Yet little is really known about epilepsy.

When asked many describe the image of a person shaking on the floor violently .This does happens but the thing is there are various types of seizures that are relatively unknown. Some are barely even visible.

Still they effect lives.

 

Crazy isn’t it.

So do me a favour today, pop over to the Epilepsy action site and learn more about this condition.
