Even Small Steps Lead To Big Changes

This is going to be a smaller post, but I have a few things I want to say and something exciting that I want to share. So here we go!

I know that sometimes fighting something like epilepsy, whether you are a patient or a loved one of someone suffering from it can be overwhelming. And it can feel hopeless, like nothing we do is making a difference.

But today I’d just like to remind you that it’s not true. Every bit of kindness we show people, awareness for epilepsy that we share, and every small step we take can lead to big changes. 

That’s a big reason why I think epilepsy awareness month is so important! It hopefully teaches others about epilepsy and what it is to live with it, but also reminds us what we’re fighting for and how important the small steps are.

Which leads me to the thing I wanted to share, and I hope you’ll check out! The Ours Family has extended their $25,000 Matching Gift Challenge in honor of National Epilepsy Awareness Month. The match ends at midnight on the 26th. I just wanted to share this in case you have any money that you would like to donate. Just go to the Epilepsy Foundation before November 26, 2022 and give whatever you can.

The Epilepsy Foundation has already raised almost $70 million dollars for epilepsy over the course of its existence and they do great work!

But even if you can’t donate, by reading this article you showed an interest in epilepsy and for that I thank you!! Because remember, even the small steps make a big difference.
