Story

Join Nico the GRAND MARSHALL for the
10th Annual Walk to END EPILEPSY
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16 @ 9 AM - EISENHOWER PARK, PARKING FIELD 1

As many of you know Nico was diagnosed with epilepsy about 10 years ago, although he has been having seizures since he was a baby. He has been through ups and downs, times with a lot of seizures and times with two-year gaps in between seizures. Nico was getting ready to get his permit recently and unfortunately a seizure peeked its ugly head out again and put that to a hault. This condition is very unpredictable and unreliable. You just never know. Through it all Nico has kept his head high and continued to have a great disposition and a love for life. We owe it to him and all the others who battle this condition to rally together and show our support. This year he will join other grand marshals and lead the pack together. one more time. 💜💟

For more than 65 years, the Epilepsy Foundation Long Island has been the premier resource for advocacy, support, information and referral, and outreach for children, adults, and families living with epilepsy as well as offering education and training to the broader community.

Each year, we look forward to our Walk to END EPILEPSY.

We walk to raise epilepsy awareness, to take action, and to raise funds for the education programs and outreach services of the Epilepsy Foundation Long Island. We walk for NICO!

💜💪💜 GO TEAM NICO’S WAY 💜💪💜
