One man's effort to make a difference;

http://www.epilepsy-ohio.org/EARTH_Ride/earth_ride.htm

I've been a lurker here for years.  My 35 year old brother, Todd,  has
both simple and complex partials.  His doctors' finally put him on
disability because of failure to control to a point where he was safe to
work and he moved in with my family in January of this year.  Our local
epilepsy foundation (http://www.epilepsyfoundation.org/westernohio/) has
support meetings once a month and he began attending (since he was
living with people who could get him there).  At these meetings we met
John O'Grady.  Read his story - it is inspiring.  

With John as a mentor, my brother is now volunteering hours and energy
to seizure awareness with our local chapter and with the state epilepsy
organization (the one he enjoyed most was being a counselor for a camp
this summer for children with epilepsy).  If we can get him a tri-bike,
Todd plans on riding with John on a future awareness campaign.
