"Even though are a person with epilepsy, you can choose to have a life of your own, be able to make decisions, know your limitations, but not let it affect you."
This is the overall message conveyed by members of the Caritas Malta Epilepsy Association for 8 February, which is International Epilepsy Day 2021.
(Prof. Janet Mifsud from the Department of Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, has been instrumental in setting up this organisation).
On this day, several buildings in Valletta will be lit up in purple.
If you can take a picture and put #epilepsyday to raise awareness on your feed, that would be great.
Let's Shine a Light on Epilepsy!
