Just over two years ago I was out for dinner with my son Roarke and daughter Lila, when Lila collapsed to the floor and had a series of massive seizures. It was the worst meal of my life. It’s completely changed our family’s life, as we grapple with what her life-changing diagnosis means. So, I’ve recently finished a TEDe Talk that Lila, Roarke, Sheridan, and I hope will raise awareness of how common epilepsy is, and raise much-needed funds for the amazing people at Epilepsy Action Australia. Lila is one of 250,000 Australians with epilepsy. That means 1% of our country has this disorder. 1 in 10 Aussies will have a seizure in their life. And 300 people a year die from their epilepsy. Epilepsy Action Australia has provided us with so much support, but last year their annual fundraiser Purple Day was cancelled by COVID. So, I want the country to open their hearts and make a tax-deductible donation and SHARE IN THE BEAR.

THANK YOU SO MUCH AUSTRALIA! The 99% have shown how much you care. Over $60,000 in just a night is absolutely incredible! Lila dyed her hair purple again for Purple Day. What a wonderful celebration and outpouring of love for the 250,000 Aussies with epilepsy. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !
