Rencontrez Marylee, 7 ans, l'une de nos courageuses #FacesOfEpilepsy. Mary a reçu un diagnostic d'épilepsie à l'âge de trois ans. Ses parents sont déterminés à ne pas laisser la condition de Mary régner sur sa vie. Avant que COVID ne frappe, elle suivait des cours de ballet pendant l'année scolaire et de football en été. Elle a également pris des cours de natation. Maintenant, elle veut jouer de la batterie et pratiquer le patinage artistique. Elle adore la cuisine et la pâtisserie, et c'est une grande artiste!

My name is Aurora and I am a 14-years old. Since being diagnosed with epilepsy I have read a lot about this disorder and feel it is important for people to know more about it. I want to fund raise to help people like me who are struggling with epilepsy and to help find a cure.

SUDEP took my sister Kim, suddenly at the age of 24. It left a hole in our family and a mark that endures, all these years later.

On March 28th, 2016, our lives changed forever. Our baby, did not wake up that morning and this was the worst day of our lives. He was found in his crib having a major seizure, fortunately, the paramedics were fast and fantastic. 4 days later, Aiden was diagnosed with epilepsy, a neurological disorder without a cure.

Michelle was diagnosed with epilepsy when she was 16, and her life completely changed after that day. She had many struggles every day dealing with this new disease. It was a battle that most of us couldn't see, but greatly effected Michelle's life in every way.
