Purple for Teddy
Story
On 21st August 2015, after long and miserable fight, our daughter Teddy grew her wings. Living without her is not easy and remembering the good times is what gets us through the though days. She loved teddy bears, food and coffee dates.
We wish to honour her life by raising awareness for Epilepsy in these ways:
~ On 26th March, yearly, we will wear purple at work, paint our logos purple, post on our work social media outlets and engage as many people as possible.
~ By organising and running various local events and fundraisers
~ On 21st August we will have a cake, celebrating Teddy's life
I'm making a difference and quitting something important to me to raise money for a cause that's close to my heart. Please support my efforts by making a secure online donation and posting a message of support.
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice.
Thanks so much for your support!
Activity
Epilepsy Queensland Inc
For more than 50 years, Epilepsy Queensland has been assisting Queensland families touched by epilepsy. Services include education, counselling, information services, children’s and family support programs, specialised training programs, support groups and advocacy. Epilepsy directly affects around 2% (1 in 50) of the population and still remains one of the most misunderstood conditions in today’s society. 28,740 children and adults in Queensland with active epilepsy which is more than muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s disease, motor neurone disease, and several others combined. Anyone can be diagnosed at any age and Epilepsy Queensland helps to replace the fear and uncertainty with knowledge and empowerment. 60 people per week receive an epilepsy diagnosis. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), it is doubtful there is any other medical condition so universally neglected due to a combination of social stigma, low profile and lack of resources. WHO recognises epilepsy as the world’s most common serious brain disorder. Please help us to be the beacon of hope for people living with, and impacted by epilepsy in Queensland.
