DETAILS: This year marks the 14th Annual Epilepsy Awareness Day Expo at Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA, which is billed as “the largest gathering of epilepsy patients and doctors on earth.” Patients, caregivers and their families are invited to attend the two-day educational expo, which will be followed on day 3 by a visit inside the Disneyland theme park. Epilepsy Awareness Day at Disneyland was founded by parents Brad and Candy Levy as a tribute to their daughter Sofie, who is now seizure free. The Levys now lead the nonprofit Sofie’s Journey, dedicated to making a difference in the epilepsy community.
