Hi, My name is Cassidy. I have Epilepsy and in 2008, I started Purple Day for Epilepsy on March 26th to let people know that they aren't alone and how much they can learn about other people with Epilepsy and also about Epilepsy.

I started Purple Day because I want people to know that they are not the only ones with Epilepsy. When I first got Epilepsy I thought I was the only kid with it. I learned that there were a lot of other kids and big people with Epilepsy from all over the world. I also want people to know that there are different types of seizures and not to be afraid of seizures. I am so happy that last year Purple Day for Epilepsy went really good because so many people supported me and other people with Epilepsy. This year I hope to have more support and people involved because I want to make Purple Day for Epilepsy known all over the world. I am hoping that you will help me and wear purple or lavender on March 26th for Purple Day.

Thank you,
Cassidy
