I often find it difficult to write posts about bringing awareness to epilepsy. On one hand, I think it's super important to help stop the stigma around seizures and to help people understand what epilepsy is really like. On the other hand, I often wish that we were not aware of epilepsy.
An epilepsy mom friend of mine posted an article the other day that really hit home to me. It seemed to perfectly sum up exactly how I feel about epilepsy. "Because An Entire Month Is Dedicated To My Nemesis" spoke to me on a lot of different levels and I hope you take the time to read it for yourself.
I will leave you with a little paragraph from the article...
I hate epilepsy. I want it gone. I want my sweet daughter, her precious little friends and every person in this battle to be victorious for good. But because it is here for now, I will do my best to spread awareness of the brave warriors heroically fighting a battle they don’t deserve to be in.
And some pictures of our sweet warrior, the reason we are aware...
