I am running with Team Danny Did for the 2025 Chicago Marathon! I am so excited to be a member of this team. I’ve partnered with the Danny Did Foundation for many years, and I’m honored to support their important work!
As a person with epilepsy for almost 20 years, I’ve been directly impacted by their work and see how their programs improve the lives of those in the community. I'm running to share my journey and inspire others who face epilepsy. Also, I've dedicated my career to raising awareness about epilepsy mortality and supporting those who have lost loved ones to epilepsy. I'm running to honor their loved ones and the work of this incredible organization in closing the gaps in epilepsy care.
Every mile I run is for the 1 in 26 Americans who will be diagnosed with epilepsy and for the 1 in 1000 who will be lost to SUDEP. Thank you for considering a donation to support my run dedicated to those facing epilepsy and honoring those we have lost to epilepsy. I appreciate your support!

About Danny Did Foundation
Founded by Chicago parents Mike and Mariann Stanton in 2010 after the sudden death of their four-year-old son Danny, the Danny Did Foundation’s primary mission is to prevent deaths caused by seizures. The Foundation advances public awareness of epilepsy and Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP), strives to improve communication about SUDEP between medical professionals and families affected by seizures, and advocates for the mainstream acceptance and use of seizure detection and prediction devices that may assist in preventing seizure-related deaths.
Epilepsy affects 3.4 million people in the United States and 65 million people worldwide. One in 26 Americans will develop epilepsy during their lifetime. But what few people understand, including many people with epilepsy, is that seizures can be fatal. More people die as a result of seizures than from fires and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) combined. In addition to deaths caused by drowning, other accidents, and status epilepticus (prolonged seizures), thousands of deaths occur annually from SUDEP, a fact that is little known and too rarely addressed by medical professionals and in public discussions of epilepsy. Danny Did Foundation takes its name from the last line of Danny Stanton’s obituary, written by his dad: “Please go and enjoy your life. Danny did.” We celebrate Danny’s spirit in every child and family we reach.
