In Support of International Epilepsy Awareness Day
Purple Day, founded by a young woman by the name of Megan Cassidy, is an international grassroots effort dedicated to increasing awareness about epilepsy worldwide. On March 26th annually, people in countries around the world are invited to wear purple and host events in support of epilepsy awareness.
Fifty Million people have epilepsy worldwide. It is estimated that one in one-hundred people have epilepsy. In 50% of cases, the cause is unknown.
Epilepsy doesn’t just affect people it affects animals too. With treatment, it can be managed. Follow the blog hop links below to learn more about this condition and support this cause.
My handsome boys are wearing purple bowties in support of #PurpleDay2016. Post your photos using the # on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
This Blog Hop is hosted by FiveSibes and Confessions of a Rescue Mom blog
Thank you for supporting this cause,
