Default Nov Epilepsy Awareness Month

Hi Folks,
November is Epilepsy Awareness Month and this yr. I plan on speaking in public schools and I'm once again in a medical trial to help people with epilepsy. 3 million people in the U.S. are diagnosed with epilepsy every yr. and at least 5 million people in the world have epilepsy. Besides the Epilepsy Foundation of America they have now started a new group called CURE
Citizens United in Research for Epilepsy. This group is trying to get the public more involved and aware of epilepsy and also point out that a lot of our troops in the Middle East who have Post Tramatic Brain Disorders from injuries are now getting epilepsy just like all of us. If you are interested in CURE you can get involved by checking out their website at CURE for epilepsy and then see what they want you to do for your state or country. Here's wishing all of you well and May God Bless You!

Sue
