We are radically advancing research to achieve a life free from epilepsy

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A lot of you will already know that my youngest brother Lee has suffered from Epilepsy his whole life and I mean whole life as in from the 1st day of his life (he will be 29 in March).

It also seems he is in the 30% of sufferers where drugs do not control the condition so he gets and always have had regular seizures.

Whilst a seizure is happening there is nothing you can do to stop it.  All you can do is make sure he doesn't hurt himself until it stops.

So basically this is the only way I can think of helping by raising some money to help research drugs that maybe in the future will stop the seizures for my brother and others

It's going to be hard.  I have no background in running.  I am not built for running.  It's going to hurt!!!!!

One thing is for sure thou, I am 100% going to get round because no matter how much pain I feel before the day, on the day, and in the days after.  It's nowhere near the rubbish he has had to put up with.

Thanks for reading, roll on BRIGHTON!!!

John
