November brings so many things to so many people.  It brings the 30 days of things we are thankful to on facebook.  It brings a houseful of family around the end of the month where they are suddenly thankful for all of us, even if you don’t talk the rest of the year.  It brings cooler temperatures, changing leaves and for some it bring a time of remembrance.  It bring Veteran’s the time we make sure to let those that have and are currently serving our country how much we appreciate them.  It also bring Epilepsy Awareness month.  A time that people with Epilepsy focus on bringing more awareness.  It also brings a time when those of us that have lost someone to Epilepsy are reminded of the evil ways of this illness. 

Epilepsy affects nearly 2 million Americans.  Despite this alarming number, most Americans do now know how to properly recognize and respond when someone is having a seizure.  If you saw someone having a seizure, would you know what to do?

One in every ten Americans have had, or will have, a seizure at some point in their lives.  Learning about the condition could help save a life or prevent serious injury to someone having a seizure.

Did you know that more people die each year from a seizure related incident than die from breast cancer?  My son was one of those people.  Andrew went to sleep and never woke up.

Each November we make a donation to a reputable Seizure Awareness charity.  This year we would like to include you.

For a $5.00 donation you will get an Andrew’s Wing’s T-shirt, please state your size.  We have S, M, L, XL and XXL.  This includes your shipping, or you can choose our Andrew’s Wing’s Cookbook, written by a very popular recipe contributor for Gooseberry Patch and Taste of Woman among other publications.  If you would like to donate $10.00 you will get one of each plus a bracelet.

We are not stopping there.  If we are able to donate at least $100.00 with your support,  we will put your name into a drawing for a wonderful surprise.  What does this have to do with this industry?  Each $5.00 you donate puts your name into the drawing for yet another exciting item.  How about a full case of Pacfic Acrylic Double Wall 16 oz tumblers.  This is a $68.40 value.  This is a win, win for you.  This is a win, win for Epilepsy awareness.

Please send donations via paypal to lcanon@swbell.net (marked as gift/friends/family).  In the subject line please put Epilepsy Awareness.  In the message section please give us your mailing address and your preference of cookbook or t-shirt and what size you need.  Thank you for your support.  We will let you know how much we donate in December.  WE plan to donate the first week.
