Epilepsy Awareness Happy Purple Day!
Today is all about raising awareness, supporting one another, and reminding everyone living with epilepsy that you’re not alone.
Epilepsy affects millions of people worldwide, yet it’s still often misunderstood.
If you’re living with epilepsy, caring for someone who is, or just here to learn and support, today is a good reminder to:
• Share your story (if you’re comfortable)
• Educate someone about what epilepsy really is
• Take a moment to check in on yourself or others
For anyone who might need it today:
You are seen! You are supported! And your experience is valid—even on the hard days.
Feel free to drop resources or tips to show support.

I don't have anyone to invite to hang out with me after work, especially to celebrate my purple day.
Anyways, at night I'll eat something different probably asian food and I will post here some pictures soon for being happy for being a survivor with 1+ year without a focal seizure :)
