Rachel's Story - Living with Epilepsy
Meet Rachel, a courageous individual who was diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of 29. In this heartfelt video, Rachel shares her journey of living with epilepsy, the challenges she faced, and the support she received from her family, neurologist, and the Epilepsy Association of Calgary (EAC).
Rachel's story is one of resilience and hope. Despite the fear and isolation caused by her uncontrolled seizures, she found strength in the support of her loved ones and the EAC. Through numerous medications, brain surgery, and participation in programs like HOBSCOTCH and UPLIFT, Rachel's seizures have decreased dramatically, and she has found a community that understands and supports her.
Join Rachel as she talks about the impact of epilepsy on her life, the importance of support networks, and her hope for the future. This video is a testament to the power of perseverance and the difference that organizations like the EAC can make in the lives of those living with epilepsy.
Support those like Rachel during our Year-End Spark Change Fundraising Campaign. www.epilepsycalgary.com

    Derek was such a bright light in some of our darkest hours. He shared his story with my daughter and me and he provided insight and tremendous comfort and reassurance to us. We feel very fortunate to have had Derek come into our lives. 1:34
