Not all seizures are epilepsy.

Functional (non-epileptic) seizures are real and not caused by abnormal brain activity. Some people experience both types.

Awareness matters for better diagnosis and care.

Honoured Mayor Carolyn Parrish joined Aloha Vegas supporting epilepsy awareness and volunteers making a difference. Grateful to all who showed up and gave back ✨ #AlohaVegas

[Epilepsy South Central Ontario @EpilepsySCO]

“Epilepsy is often misunderstood… but knowledge changes everything.”

At Aloha Vegas with MPP @RudyCuzzetto, we were reminded: no one should face epilepsy alone. Understanding reduces fear, talking removes stigma, and support builds community.
