Review for Epilepsy Foundation of Minnesota Inc, St Paul, MN, USA
In 2003 I suffered a aseizure at age 30. One year later I had another and was diganosed with Epilepsy. Around this time my little girl was having 50 to 100 seizures per day. I knew I wanted to be her voice. So I went to EFMN to get more info and to give back. Thru EFMN's many programs like the Stroll for Epilepsy or Family Fun events we have met people who have gone thru the same thing. And being a Volunteer Educator has allowed me to give back. It has allowed me to break the myths about epilpesy and teach other on the proper techinques about seizure responses. More importantly EFMN has allowed me to be a voice for my little girl.
