Our MISSION

My Epilepsy Story is an organization that serves as a forum to bridge the gap for women and young adolescent girls diagnosed with epilepsy, as well as the children impacted by their mother’s epilepsy by sharing their stories, increasing awareness, and to lead toward cutting-edge research.

EDUCATE

Epilepsy impacts more lives than you think.

ADVOCATE

Awareness is crucial. We want you to be empowered.

RESEARCH

Epilepsy is not beyond treatment, or a cure.

About My Epilepsy Story

Brandy Parker-McFadden
Founder

Founder, Wife, Mother and Woman with Epilepsy

My goal is to help other mothers and girls suffering from epilepsy.

I have had epilepsy for over 20 years. I have generalized tonic-clonic seizures. While I am in the group of people with epilepsy that is controlled, I realize the importance of epilepsy research. Epilepsy research falls further behind other neurological diseases. My hope is for better treatment and a cure for epilepsy.
