Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running with some good friends who recently lost their beautiful, little girl under tragic circumstances.  She was only 18. 

Jessica had many years where she lived and struggled with epilepsy. However leading up to her death, she was having a lot of problems with her epilepsy and medication, causing her to be seriously unwell. She started to suffer mental illness as a result of her medication. This lead to her tragic death. They are now left with devastation around them, as she left behind so many people whose lives she touched. Especially her Mum and Dad and two little brothers.

Since losing Jessica the family have come across SUDEP action, and it is a fantastic charity. So we want to help raise awareness for SUDEP action and raise money to help other people living with or know someone that suffers with epilepsy.
