Every year CURE participates in Epilepsy Awareness Day at Disneyland in California, a 3-day conference with epilepsy organizations, patients, doctors, researchers and vendors from around the country sharing information, research and advancements in the field. We took this opportunity to get away from the kitchen table and explore some hot topics in the epilepsy community.
