Most people with #epilepsy take anti-seizure medication (ASM) to stop their seizures from happening. However, there are other treatment options for people whose seizures are not controlled by ASMs, such as VNS and diet. Learn more bit.ly/2K6Kca2

We are sorry to learn of the death of Dr Charlotte Dravet, the leading epilepsy specialist who identified the severe myoclonic epilepsy of childhood which was later named Dravet syndrome. She trained many neurologists about the epileptic syndromes of infancy and childhood.

🌟 New research highlights transarterial embolization (TAE) as a promising alternative to hemispherectomy for infants <3 months with hemimegalencephaly and refractory seizures. This innovative approach could reshape epilepsy treatment strategies! 🧠✨ #EpilepsyResearch JNIS

Lakers fans, meet Ethan. At the age of 2, he was diagnosed with epilepsy due to a stroke. With help from UCLA Health, he underwent successful brain surgery and now enjoys a seizure-free life. To celebrate, Ethan was brought out to be a Laker For A Day 💜

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but it’s scary to be an American Jew right now. The heinous terrorist attack in Colorado is what happens when the left normalizes antisemitism, when they normalize hating America. People like me end up in the crosshairs simply for being Jewish.

From the Tree of Life massacre down the road from where we live, to Boulder yesterday, D.C. the week before, and so many more horrific accounts. We both see the way antisemitism has impacted communities across Pennsylvania, the country, and the world—and we must call it out.
