Epilepsy

Every year in March, it is Purple Day! For those of you who are unaware of what ‘Purple Day’ is, it is the international day for epilepsy. It is a day where people around the world come together to raise awareness of the condition and make a difference to those affected by epilepsy. When my son was diagnosed with epilepsy, I’m not going to lie. I instantly thought about him falling to the ground, soiling himself and foaming at the mouth. The characteristics that the media portray so often, but it’s been anything but that. This is the Truth about epilepsy.
