NOVEMEBER:  EPILEPSY AWARENESS 
​MONTH 7 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

Picture
It's that time of year again! Epilepsy Awareness Month! Here are 7 things you need to know when someone or you have epilepsy.

1. KNOW SEIZURE SAFETY.
Knowing what NOT to do is important for keeping a person safe during or after a seizure. Do not hold the person down or try to stop his or her movements. Do not put anything in the person's mouth. ... A person having a seizure cannot swallow his or her tongue.
​

2. KNOW SEIZURE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS:
-TEMPORARY CONFUSION
-STARING SPELL
-UNCONTROLLABLE JERKING MOVEMENTS OF ARMS & LEGS
-LOSS OF CONSCIOUSNESS OR AWARESSNESS
-PSYCHIC SYMPTOMS OF FEAR, ANXEITY, OR DEJA VU

3.   WEAR PURPLE!!
This month, whenever you can WEAR PURPLE to support the cause.

Keep up with my daily instagram and twitter as I'll be discussing seizure topics and day to day life.
