Ramping it up

This week has been especially discouraging for me as I read other's stories and their battle against epilepsy. Each time I read about a child struggling because of seizures and a mother or father who is simply frustrated by the unknown, my heart breaks a little more.

As you may know November is Epilepsy Awareness Month. Kaitlin's Cauze will be ramping things up for the entire month with daily blog entries from Kaitlin, her dad, and me. We will write honest entries about our fears, struggles, concerns, hopes, and dreams. We would also like to share stories about others who live with epilepsy and are asking that you email your story to kaitlinscauze@comcast.net As individuals faced with the daily obstacles, we truly need to come together in support and encouragement as well as bring this beast out of the shadows. We need to be a voice that is heard and not ignored.

Kaitlin's Cauze would also like to do a slide show of heroes around the world and we are asking that if you don't want to share your personal story maybe you'd like to share a photo to be included in the slide show. Please mail those to kaitlinscauze@comcast.net as well.

Today is a new day my friends. Help us bring epilepsy out of the shadows.



Kim
