THE WORST MEAL OF MY LIFE FOR EPILEPSY ACTION
The day my daughter Lila had her first tonic clonic seizure was the scariest moment of my life. Not knowing much about epilepsy when you see your first seizure is so confronting it’s almost imposible to put in to words. But I tried with this piece that The Project turned into a feature story, which was able to reach millions of people, be shared tens of thousands of times, and raise almost $100,000 for the incredible people at Epilepsy Action Australia.
Years later, Lila is their youngest ambassador and owns her diagnosis like a champion, and is always looking for ways to help the 250,000 other people living with this condition.
