Love this. My son goes shark fishing with his friends on the weekends and instead of freaking out I’m mostly ok with it until someone in their crew thinks they need a bigger boat.

One flyer. Sixty houses. Twenty kids.
Now Friday nights in Bend, Oregon are full of capture the flag and laughter again.
📍It all started with boredom — and a spark of independence.

Really excited about our new awareness campaign. Parents deserve to know the life-saving facts about epilepsy surgery!
November is Epilepsy Awareness Month! We've launched a bold, new awareness campaign to help parents learn about the life-saving nature of epilepsy surgery. Join us and spread the word!

A stunning essay in the FT on the international decline in the ability to read, reason, focus, and learn new things.
It began or accelerated in the early 2010s.
It's hitting teens AND adults.
Self-report and objective scores.

Great research from our friend @SickKidsNews Mary Lou Smith PhD and @PukaKlajdi reveals distinct mental health trajectories for caregivers—especially around epilepsy surgery. (Psst - moms are not okay.)
