The Courage To Shine
"The Village"
I have written a book that has been sold all around the world.
I have spoken at the largest Epilepsy Event in the county.
I now have a job where I am educating people about epilepsy.
More and more people are being educated about epilepsy.
The CEO and Founder of "The Village, for Epilepsy Awareness. It has been his "passion" to educate people about epilepsy so that everyone will be treated equal.
The epilepsy community has a complicated relationship with the justice system. Police officers, often lacking the proper training needed to recognize and treat seizures, arrest people experiencing seizures believing them to be intoxicated. In the Epilepsy Foundation of Virginia's second panel event for its Epi Edu series, we talked to human services worker Dr. Linda Bright, epileptologist Dr. Firas Beitinjaneh, and epilepsy hero Lowell Evans to learn more about how epilepsy and the law can coexist.
