Chasey's second Purple Day 💜

Our little warrior's second Purple Day is on Thursday March 26th 2026!

In October of 2024 Chase was diagnosed with nocturnal epilepsy and then shortly after, generalized epilepsy when his seizures started happening during the day too. Before his diagnosis he endured months of countless seizures and hospital admissions. His longest seizure free period is three months. The amount of times he has been hospitalized is heartbreaking but Epilepsy NZ have been with us every step of the way.

Every year, Epilepsy New Zealand takes part in Purple Day. Purple Day is dedicated to increasing awareness about epilepsy by asking people to wear purple.

Purple Day aims to encourage people to talk about epilepsy, remind those who live with seizures that they are not alone and to raise funds for people living with epilepsy.

All funds raised goes towards:

Education: Funds are used to educate people about epilepsy and promote diversity and inclusion

Support: Funds are used to support people with epilepsy through services like personal training

Advocacy: Funds are used to advocate for people with epilepsy

If you are willing and able to support Chase and all the other epilepsy warriors worldwide, please donate below or share and spread the word.

It would mean the world to Chase and our whānau who live with the brutal realities of epilepsy ♾️

100% of donations will go to Epilepsy New Zealand and the Purple Day campaign.

Thank you!!!
