Happy Thanksgiving!


It is that time of the year again, when we give thanks for the things we have, and soon we will be in the gift-giving season. In general, this is a time of good cheer and connections with family and friends. However, for people with epilepsy, it can be difficult at times. The hustle and bustle of the holiday is often stressful, which can cause seizures.

In order to regulate yourself and try to have as few seizures as possible, try to eliminate as many seizure triggers as you can.

Wishing you all a very Safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
