Dear Friend of CURE Epilepsy,
Many milestones mark the journey through fatherhood—for parents of children with epilepsy, a specific diagnosis can be an important benchmark. The day my son, Silas, received his diagnosis of Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) coincided with the groundbreaking discovery of the particular genetic mutation that causes SWS. A quarter century of research developments led to this discovery—and a day of hope for all with this diagnosis.
That day signaled to my family that we had to help invest in research that could one day lead to a cure. That is why we have supported CURE Epilepsy for the past five years.
