Epilepsy Awareness bows and pins

Epilepsy Awareness Month is in November , and what better way to show your support for people who suffer from Epilepsy by wearing a Custom made pin or a fun hair accessory ?
I'm currently making custom bottle cap images for Epilepsy Awareness Month . I can incorporate any symbol, any type of phrase or anything your heart desires! The bottle cap will have an Epilepsy awareness ribbon and/or a variation of the phrase Epilepsy Awareness. And on some of the bottle cap images there will a Swarovski Crystal in the image.
I think this would be great foryour place of employment ,church, schools, friends , family and lists go on and on!
I can also incorporate the bottle cap in a hair now for the little Princess in your life.

The Pins will be ONLY $1.00 each and I sell these in batches of 10 (all the same image.) Only $2.00 shipping #elianasfight

As a supporter and a Mother of a Child who suffers from Epilepsy I would like to announce I'm donating 100% of the Proceeds to the Epilepsy Foundation!!!

So help Us in the fight and in the hopes of a CURE! #elianasfight

Eliana's Journey With Epilepsy


ABOUT FACTS:
Epilepsy is a medical condition that produces seizures affecting a variety of mental and physical functions. It is also called a seizure disorder. When a person has two or more unprovoked seizures, they are considered to have epilepsy. Seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells in the brain signal abnormally, which may briefly alter a person's consciousness, movements or actions.

FACTS:
Epilepsy kills more people annually than breast cancer.

Epilepsy affects over 3 million Americans of all ages – more than multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and Parkinson’s disease combined. Almost 500 new cases of epilepsy are diagnosed every day in the United States. Epilepsy affects 50,000,000 people worldwide.

Anyone can develop epilepsy at any age

The mortality rate among people with epilepsy is two to three times higher than the general population and the risk of sudden death is twenty-four times greater.

It is estimated that up to 50,000 deaths occur annually in the U.S. from status epilepticus (prolonged seizures), Sudden Unexplained Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP), and other seizure-related causes such as drowning and other accidents
