International
Epilepsy Day falls on the second Monday of February. This year, it was on
February 11, 2019. I happened to come across an article just now about a bridge
in Istanbul, Turkey that was lit in purple to raise awareness about epilepsy.
This kind of symbolic action is meaningful and is a first step in removing the
stigma of epilepsy, especially in those countries with less access to
healthcare and education.
