HIGHLIGHTS by Emma Hall
EPILEPSY ACTION
Student Lisa Hardie (and
classmates!) raised funds for
Epilepsy Action on behalf of
her partner John Davidson.
Over a year ago, John suffered a
major seizure and was scheduled
for his first diagnosis appointment
at the local seizure clinic 12
weeks later. Six weeks after his
initial seizure, John had a second
seizure where his heart stopped
for 19 minutes which has left him
severely brain damaged.
John’s partner Lisa Hardie (and
their beautiful daughter Laila,
born the day before John’s first
seizure) organised an event at
Ayrshire College’s Ayr Campus
to raise funds and awareness for
Epilepsy Action. Lisa feels that
if the diagnosis waiting time had
been shorter, John’s life could be
a lot different now. Lisa plans to
continue campaigning for this
incredibly worthwhile cause.
Lisa and her classmates raised an
incredible £709.42 for Epilepsy
Action – well done everyone!
