Turn the White House Purple for Epilepsy Awareness!!

Created by H.J. on September 14, 2012

Epilepsy affects over 3 million Americans of all ages more than autism, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and Parkinson's disease combined.

Almost 500 new cases of epilepsy are diagnosed every day in the United States. That means every 2.8 minutes someone is hearing "It's Epilepsy." 1 in 10 will have a seizure in their life, and 1 in 26 will develop epilepsy.

The White House illuminates pink in October for breast cancer awareness. Did you know that more people die a seizure related death than from breast cancer annually? Approximately 50,000. White House, WE WILL NOT stop until you send over 65 million worldwide a signal of {HOPE}!

November is Epilepsy Awareness Month, and March 26th is Purple Day!
