We reach out to you with a heartfelt request for your support in realizing a long-cherished dream – the publication of a children’s book, “Take Your Shot!” This project is more than just a book; it’s a beacon of hope designed to raise awareness, foster inspiration, and dismantle the stigma surrounding Epilepsy and seizures.
Chris, the author and Eric’s Corner participant, embarked on this journey after facing the challenges of epilepsy since his first tonic-clonic seizure in April 2012. Years of emergency room visits, medications, and diagnostic tests followed, leading to a decision for brain surgery in 2018. The surgery was successful in halting the seizures, but Chris continues to bravely face daily struggles.
His road to recovery, inspired by a newfound love for hockey, prompted him to empathize with children facing similar struggles. This led to the creation of “Take Your Shot!” – a motivational children’s book that aims to provide solace and encouragement to those on the epilepsy journey. Eric’s Corner will match all donations, up to $3500, to make this book a reality.
