Story

March this year Albie was diagnosed with Epilepsy. This has meant a few things for him have had to change: Albie now takes medication daily in attempt to prevent his seizures; he can no longer climb trees/climbing frames; he can’t swim in unattended water; he’s been prodded and poked and had wires attached to his head; he puts up with us constantly nagging, panicked and our overprotective behaviour. As a family we are forever educating ourselves on the vast and complicated subject of Epilepsy, but one thing we want to do is to turn this into a positive and Albie is up to the challenge. As soon as he found out that there was a run to raise money for Epilepsy, he was in! This Saturday Albie will be running alongside his family to raise money for Young Epilepsy!!
