I’m taking part in Walk for Epilepsy because I would like to show support for my dad and bring awareness to the realities of epilepsy.

For 25 years I have seen my dad oscillate between perfectly healthy and bed bound. From waking to falling thuds and guttural cries to the post-seizure clean up of bodily fluids and depression, I would like to bring more awareness to the realities of epilepsy. Participating in the Walk for Epilepsy in support of the Epilepsy Foundation is the least I can do for a man who, despite his suffering, has managed to provide for my family and inspire me daily to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Please help by giving whatever you can using the 'Donate' button. The more people that know about the walk, the greater the impact, so please also spread the word by sharing our page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
