At the age of 17 my mom suffered from a head injury which resulted in post traumatic epilepsy. Although she has been lucky in finding medications and treatment to control her seizures, epilepsy has still impacted her life and my families life immensely. 

Millions currently live with epilepsy, and progress is slow, and many have not been as lucky as my mom. Cure Epilepsy promotes and funds patient-focused research to find cures for epilepsy. 

I am so excited to be running in the 2021 New York City Marathon, and am so excited to raise money to fund research for better treatments, and eventually cures for epilepsy!! 

Thank you for considering to donate and support the CURE Epilepsy foundation. Much love.
