The fastest-growing group for new #epilepsy diagnoses is adults aged 65+. Many caregivers are squeezed between raising families and caring for ageing parents. Do you have any advice for people caring for ageing parents? #EpilepsyAwareness
Seizures are involuntary neurological events, yet people with #epilepsy are still met with judgment, fear, or suspicion when one happens in public. Is it finally time to trade stares and judgment for basic empathy and proper first-aid training? #EpilepsyAwareness

We’ve all thought, "I'll just do it later." but procrastination procrastination can be even riskier for people with #epilepsy. When a seizure can hit unexpectedly, "later" might mean dealing with recovery fatigue. Are you good at tackling tasks early? #EpilepsyAwareness
Cognitive training for #epilepsy doesn't have to be intense. Reading, puzzles, travelling a new street, or listening to music can stimulate neural pathways without causing unnecessary fatigue or stress. How are you going to train on #TrainYourBrainDay? #EpilepsyAwareness
