FROM JEFF'S FAMILY:
April 30, 2019 would have been Jeff's 50th birthday. Jeff will not get to enjoy his birthday on earth since he died of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) - a fatal complication of Epilepsy - over 7 years ago. SUDEP is not talked about on a regular basis with patients that experience seizures. Jeff and his family were never educated on this threat to his life, nor were we given any information in order to mitigate the threat. This lack of awareness, that if we had known, may have saved his life, is the driving force behind The 50/50/50 Challenge.
100% of the collected funds will be donated to the Danny Did Foundation, whose mission is to prevent deaths caused by seizures. Their programs advance public awareness of epilepsy and the risk of SUDEP, as well as providing grants for epilepsy alarms and devices designed to help prevent the sudden loss of life from a seizure. Your birthday gift to Danny Did will be a great honor and tribute to Jeff. You can learn more about Danny Did by viewing this video.
Please consider supporting Jeff and his family as we raise money to help others who are fighting epilepsy in Jeff's name, during this year when we should have been celebrating his 50th birthday.
With Gratitude,
The Beaupre Family
