I want to take a moment to share why I’m participating in the Toronto Epilepsy Walk this year and why your support means so much to me & everyone. Epilepsy is a condition that affects many lives, including mine! Growing up, I was introduced with epilepsy. My mom (Michelle) also had epilepsy so it’s something that we both have struggled with in our lives through many ups and downs. It impacted my life through school, driving, being an adult & making friendships! Participating in the walk is not just about raising funds, it's about raising awareness. Many people don’t understand epilepsy and the challenges those with the condition face daily. By walking, I hope to spark conversations and educate others about living with epilepsy.
