I wanted to share a short version of my story, and to tell you how thankful I am for what you are doing with Empowering Epilepsy. Thank you for educating the population of healthcare providers, teachers, family members and friends of those with epilepsy, and every other community member. Thank you for creating a safe space for all of those affected by epilepsy. I know when I was growing up, I had always wished I had someone who could truly understand how I was feeling as well.
