Happy 15th Birthday to the strongest person I know.
Fifteen years ago, you changed my life forever. Watching you grow into the incredible young man you are has been one of the greatest blessings of my life.
This morning, on your birthday of all days, epilepsy tried to steal another moment from you. You faced multiple seizures before most people had even started their day. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned from watching you over the years, it’s that epilepsy has never defined you. It has challenged you, tested you, and knocked you down more times than anyone should ever have to endure—but it has never taken your spirit.
Your strength isn’t measured by the battles people see. It’s measured by the ones you fight every single day with courage, determination, and a smile that somehow still shines through. You continue to inspire everyone around you, especially me.
I wish I could take this disease away from you, but since I can’t, I promise I’ll never stop fighting alongside you. You are loved beyond words, admired beyond measure, and stronger than you’ll probably ever realize.
Happy 15th Birthday, Bryson. I pray this year brings more joy than challenges, more victories than setbacks, and more moments where you get to simply be a kid. You deserve every good thing this world has to offer.
We love you more than words could ever say. Keep fighting, because your story is already changing lives.
💜 Happy Birthday, buddy. 💜 #FightLikeBryson #EpilepsyWarrior #Happy15thBirthday
Had a great time yesterday at the Irish Invasion camp got some great work in and thank you to @CoachJoeRudolph for having me out. Also had a great time at the grill and chill and won the grilling completion with my team. Was a great day yesterday and cannot wait to be back!
From kindergarten dreams to 8th grade graduation. Epilepsy has never defined him—his courage, determination, and heart do. So proud of you, Bryson. Keep showing the world what strength looks like. 💜 #FightLikeBryson
Groundbreaking legislation for Illinois families living with #epilepsy has passed the IL General Assembly & awaits the Governor's signature! Once signed, it will expand access to FDA-cleared seizure detection devices through both IL Medicaid & private insurance coverage (1 of 3)
Would you recognize a seizure if you witnessed one? Before you answer, just know that a majority of seizures do not look like the ones depicted in film or videos. #EpilepsyAwareness

Throwback to our Papa’s draft day. He was picked in the 1st round, 12th pick in 1980 draft. No cell phones, no call waiting, no pageantry. A dial up phone in student married housing. He played in 224 in his 16 year career, starting in 219 of those games! @Stan_Brock67@Saints
I could literally see this seizure coming all day yesterday. We were at his sister’s volleyball tournament all day and I could just see it in his face. Had a massive tonic clonic seizure when we got home and had to give nose spray rescue meds to get it to stop 😢 #epielpsywarrior
