Epilepsy Advocate Radio is one of the many resources offered by Epilepsy Advocate—a community of people and their families living with epilepsy. Epilepsy Advocate Radio provides inspirational stories and commentary from people living with epilepsy in a series of individual interviews, led by Epilepsy Advocate Chris Maxwell. The second season of Epilepsy Advocate Radio will focus on an important theme, “OK is Not Good Enough!” meaning that people living with epilepsy should feel like they are working with their doctor to do everything possible, and get the best support, to reach epilepsy independence and achieve their goals.
