Let's learn from seizure survivor and brain surgery survivor Ann Gillie  tonight as she helps us leanr to look at seizure disorder with a positive mindset. Positive - Intuitive - Inspiring - Motivator - Integrity These are the words describing Ann. If you are ready to walk away from the negativity, fear, and general complaints in the Epilepsy community globally, this is the right show for you. Ann will use her time helping us understand how we can appraoch Epilepsy/seizure disorder with a more open and positive mindset. In her own words: "I have always believed that positive thinking can take us to places we usually only dream of; I went through neuro surgery and its complex recovery, but I did it! With support and a strong positive attitude you can accomplish your biggest dreams and goals. I am a motivational speaker/writer and advocate for Epilepsy, but that is just the start of what I am hoping to accomplish. I believe when one door closes another opens!"

Two weeks before she passed away by SUDEP ( SUdden Unexpected Death in Epileptic Patients) Jesy shared three wishes she had for her work through NSDF. One week later, we celebrated her accomplishments in creating plan for these wishes while we enjoyed the first Thanksgiving Dinner she cooked all by herself for the entire family. One week later she was found, dead and alone. after putting her 7 yr old daughter on the school bus and kissing her fiance goodbye as he left for work. SUDEP had taken her while she was alone. Tonight we honor her by sharing Jesy's Wish. Tonight is not about SUDEP or Awareness. Tonight is a personal hour shared with the public about my daughter, a young mother, and a good friend. Tonight is about Jesy and her Wish for National Seizure Disorders Foundation. Come along with me and share in honoring Jesyka Collins, 27 gone from the pain and stress of seizure disorder into the Peace and Freedom of Gods Love. What were her wishes for NSDF? To provide Hope and Love for the families left to gireve after SUDEP strikesTo provide life saving seizure alert canines to seizure survivorsTo provide scolarships to young single adult seizure survivors or caregivers wanting to further thier education. I still see the Joy in her face and hear the excitement in her voice as she relives every moment of creating Thanksgiving dinner for the family and as she spills out plans for her future with National Seizure Disorders Foundation. Her life will forever be honored at National Seizure Disorders Foundation and twice a year, firneds, family, and members of National Seizure Disorders Foundation will pause in memory for Jesyka Collins and in honor of Jesys Wish.

Terrific Tonya Heathco's Seizure Journey. Join us as NSDF Secretary Kerri Croake interviews Terrific Tonya as she shares her story with you. Terrific Tonya's bio: Originally from California I’ve enjoyed most of my life in Tennessee. Believe it or not, our first home in Tennessee had no and no indoor bathroom, just an outhouse!! Life as a teen in Tennessee in the 70′s was a treat. I loved the experience. As a young adult, life changed. Not for better or worse, it just changed. A chronic brain abnormality, Periventricular Heterotopia, became active in my life producing up to 150 seizures a month. Now I have hope. The National Foundation raises awareness and support for all who live with seizure disorders, (patients and their caregivers). For all who wish to help, support, or are in need of information, please contact me. As a young adult I was blessed with three precious jewels, Jesyka, Cory, and Zack. Later in life , I married my life partner, Scott. We now enjoy the company of our dog, Tiny,our kids and our grand-babies, Ana and Colton. Life in Tennessee is good. I love who I am, where I am, and what I do 00:30:00TerrificTonyanoNSDF,Terrific Tonya,seizure disorders,doggy dollars,seizure awarenessTerrific Tonya Heathco's Seizure Journey.
