We wanted to let you how much fun we had celebrating Epilepsy Awareness Month this year. Like all things in 2020, this November was different. Our goal at Brain Ablaze was to get the word out about Epilepsy and seizures using every tool we had available.
Support
Our biggest contribution to Epilepsy Awareness Month was how we spent our November hosting eight different Epilepsy Awareness Sessions catered to both PST and GMT timezones.
Memorable Motto Challenge
This year we partnered with Novela Neurotech to bring a bit of fun to our Epilepsy Awareness Month with our Memorable Motto Challenge. Novela Neurotech then used the motto “The Patients are the Experts!” in a wonderfully designed T-shirt hosted in our store.
Blog
We introduced two new contributors to the Brain Ablaze Blog. Yarrow Rubin and Katie Nunn. Their wonderful posts covered everything Epilepsy including dealing with Puberty to the language we speak. We are so happy to have them both on board.
Podcast
We continued to release new podcast episodes until the middle of November. They included one on seizure first aid and the review of the podcast’s first season. We also archived three different videos to our YouTube channel. We tweeted the first 30 episodes in order once per day during the length of the month. We have now accumulated more than seven hours of podcast media on our site.
Community
We absolutely love our Purple Family on Twitter. There were plenty of great discussions and celebrations. Here are some of our favorite tweets from #EpilepsyAwarenessMonth:
Store
Along with the t-shirts for the Memorable Motto Challenge, we also partnered with Novela Neuro to design iPhone cases that feature seizure first aid.
