This is an amazing step forward and potential alternative for people who’s only option might have been to remove part of the brain.

Especially for those who have epilepsy in their cortex because previously the neurologist might say ‘there’s nothing we can do’

Nice one

"Daisy didn't have an epilepsy monitor nor were we aware, 21 years ago, that such a thing even existed. Daisy died in her sleep from SUDEP (sudden unexpected death in epilepsy). Daisy was just 6 years old... Had we had a monitor, it's possible The Daisy Garland charity would never have existed... " Sara Garland, Daisy's mum, Founder and CEO at The Daisy Garland

We have 50+ babies and children on our growing epilepsy monitor waiting list, whose families are desperate for these life-saving pieces of equipment. But we are a small charity and demand presently outweighs resources.

If you would like to help fund a monitor for a child on our waiting list, PLEASE click on the link NOW and sponsor Team Walk4Daisy:
