    The aftermath of having a seizure is sometimes described as experiencing post-workout pains and can cause sufferers to feel muscle aches. So, to replicate that feeling, we are challenging you to participate in our “100 miles to stop 100 seizures” campaign. Take on the challenge of completing 100 miles on foot or by cycling over a two months period. You can participate individually or as a team by recording your progress through an app. Set up a fundraising page and encourage friends, family, and colleagues to sponsor your efforts. Together, we can stop 100 seizures and create a brighter future for children with intractable epilepsy. #PurpleDay2024 #epilepsy #intractableepilepsy #100milestostop100seizures #medicinalcannabis #TeamIntractable https://lnkd.in/dxBxqhn3

On this special day, let's recognize these mothers as the true superheroes they are, facing challenges with unwavering strength and resilience. To all the mums who tirelessly advocate for their children, who provide comfort in times of uncertainty, and who work tirelessly to ensure their child's well-being, I salute you. Your selflessness and determination inspire us all.
