2023 Stigma Maze!
Beat the Myths About Epilepsy!
Welcome to the 2023 Halloween Awareness Campaign for Epilepsy, by the Edmonton Epilepsy Association, EEA. Explore with us the myths about epilepsy and seizures, and walk with us, through a spooky maze of false facts, wrongly held beliefs about seizures and epilepsy.
Let our friendly neurons walk with you, each day, to discover truthful facts about epilepsy and seizures, the brain and life with a seizure disorder. Each day we will add a new truths to bust a myth that stigmatizes people impacted by epilepsy. Play the daily games and challenges with us and send us your entries. We will draw a lucky name at the end of October, for a special prize.Â
Each day click on the new piece of the maze below, learn a myth about epilepsy and the truth to bust it!Â
The winner of this year’s draw is Keira!
She shared with us (with the help of mom) that she learned that:Â
- adults who are seizure free for a certain period of time can drive
- unfortunately there is no cure for epilepsy, but seizures can be managed with medication
