💙 February 7th is PACS1 Awareness Day 💙

Today we’re shining a light on PACS1 Syndrome, a very rare genetic condition that affects development, communication and often comes with complex needs, including epilepsy.
For our family, PACS1 isn’t just a cause we support… it’s personal.
Our daughter Lara has PACS1, and she is the reason we founded Seizure Alert Australia.
Lara is full of personality, joy, and determination and if you know her, you’ll know one of her absolute favourite things in the world is the water park. Seeing her light up in moments like this reminds us why awareness matters so much.
“Lara brings so much joy to our lives, but PACS1 also comes with challenges most people never see. We’ve learnt to celebrate the beautiful moments, while navigating the hard ones and we hope by sharing Lara’s story we can help others feel less alone.” - Wendy (Lara's mum)
Today, we stand with every PACS1 family and every rare disease community.
You’re not alone. 💙

Epilepsy ≠ Just Shaking

❌ Myth: “Epilepsy always means shaking fits.”
✅ Fact: Not all seizures look the same. Some may involve blank stares, lip smacking, confusion, or brief lapses in awareness.
👀 Awareness of ALL seizure types means more people can help when it matters.

“Always an Emergency”

❌ Myth: “Every seizure means you must call an ambulance.”
✅ Fact: Most seizures stop on their own within minutes.

📞 Call emergency services if:
- Seizure lasts 5+ minutes
- Seizures repeat without recovery
- It’s their first seizure
- The person is injured or has trouble breathing

We are pleased to announce that we are launching NightWatch+ within the next several weeks. This is the successor to the original NightWatch, which has been on the market since 2018. Once NightWatch+ is launched, the original NightWatch will no longer be available. Spare parts will of course, remain available.

NightWatch+ brings the same high level of seizure detection, but meets the requirements of a higher safety class, registered with the TGA as a class IIa.

It also offers a number of improvements that benefit both wearers and healthcare providers. In the images, we outline the changes so you can assess the product and determine its suitability.

Let’s talk about SUDEP | Because awareness empowers action.

SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy) is rare, but understanding the risk factors can help people living with epilepsy stay safer.

👉 It’s most likely to occur during or after a seizure, particularly at night
👉 Those with frequent tonic-clonic seizures may be more at risk
👉 Tools like seizure alert devices, medication routines, and safety plans can make a difference

By sharing knowledge and encouraging open conversations, we can support safer outcomes for people with epilepsy and their families.

💜 Stay informed. Stay prepared. Stay connected.
