Epilepsy Blog Relay Recap: Thank you everyone

Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the first ever Epilepsy Blog Relay. Together we have increased awareness of epilepsy stigma around the world.

In addition to the 30 bloggers who agreed to lead the charge (see their smiling faces above) there are many who have amplified the message by sharing on social media and spreading the word through their own networks. So, I’d like to take this opportunity to invite all the other supporters to get a little pat on the back.

Below you will find a Linky. This is a way for you to upload a thumbnail and a link to your own page, post or timeline. I encourage you to participate in the linky especially if you promoted the blog relay in any way.
