Epilepsy has been a topic of high concern for me personally over the past 5 years. My wife, Catherine, was diagnosed with Epilepsy after experiencing a grand mal seizure only months before our wedding date. I made the commitment to care for her and do everything I can to support her over the past 5 years. This effort to raise awareness and money for treating people with Epilepsy hits home for us.

We have saught treatment from experienced epileptologists at Stanford's advanced medical center, including trials with different medications and even overnight clinical procedures to search for possible cures. Though we've experienced many trials along the way, Cat's seizures have been under control as of late. We are thankful for the advancement in research that has provided us with the care Cat needs in order to live a healthy, normal life.

Please consider donating to the Danny Did Foundation, who strives to bring similar care that my wife has received over the past five years to others in need. Your contribution will help make a difference.

I will be running this marathon in honor of my wife, and for all people living with Epilepsy. Together, we can bring hope to many in need and make a greater effort towards treating those who suffer from seizures.

Thank you in advance for your support!
