My lovely grandma passed away earlier this year. She was having seizures for around 3 years before she left us and it highlighted to us as a family just how little we actually know about epilepsy and how to help people live life to the fullest when it takes hold.

I'm so lucky to have the most beautiful memories of my kind, mischievous grandma who was our biggest cheerleader and told us time and time again that no dream is too big! 

This week my family will be going over to Ireland to scatter my grandma's ashes near her childhood home. Running this half marathon for her feels completely like the right thing to do.

We love you Grandma 💜
