Why do I talk about Epilepsy and SUDEP?
To shatter stigmas, educate and to let others know worldwide that they are not alone.
Grateful to EpilepsyHu for publishing.

This week, @GovPritzker signed my bill, SB2762, into law, extending insurance coverage for life-saving seizure detection devices and capping patient costs at $50 per year. (1/3)

I was diagnosed with epilepsy at 18, during my first year of college. Those early days were scary and overwhelming, but I learned to take life one day at a time, lean on support, and find strength I didn’t know I had. Living with epilepsy is hard, but you are not alone.

We're incredibly grateful to the advocacy partners, families, clinicians, and community members who helped make this possible. In addition, we celebrate the chief sponsors of this legislation: Senator @SenatorMorrison and @RepBobMorgan, for their tireless efforts. (2 of 3)
