Dear Friend of CURE Epilepsy,

Over the past few weeks, we’ve held our collective breath awaiting the first COVID vaccines and we’ve watched them be administered in real time. Many have described this as the "beginning of the end" of the pandemic. 

Our hearts go out to the over 340,000 Americans and their loved ones who have been lost to this virus and to the many, many more whose lives have been turned upside down by its impact.   

This is the promise and the hope of research: to put an end to suffering. 

We are all desperate to return to "normal", or at least a re-defined "normal." At CURE Epilepsy, we are eager for our researchers to be back full-time in their labs and clinics so that we can move the needle closer to the beginning of the end of epilepsy.  

On this last day of 2020 I ask you to pause and reflect on the awesome power of science and research to transform and save lives. Our epilepsy researchers depend on your generous support to lead us to what the epilepsy community needs most: a cure. At CURE Epilepsy, we will not stop supporting their work until it is found.

I can't help but imagine what it will feel like to say that we are at the "beginning of the end" of the suffering and loss of life caused by epilepsy. Please help us get closer to that day with your donation now. 

On behalf of my daughter Lauren, my family and all of us at CURE Epilepsy, we wish you safety and good health in the year ahead. We are deeply grateful for your support. 

Susan Axelrod, Founder  

P.S. If you already made a year-end donation, please accept our sincerest gratitude. You are making a difference in our unrelenting search for a cure.
