Long post🚨 Yesterday, a milestone that once felt uncertain became reality.

Tyla officially got her driver’s license. 🥹💜

There was a time when seizures put so many things on pause. Milestones that many families expect at 16 or 17 looked different for us. There were doctor’s appointments, waiting periods, questions, and moments when we simply didn’t know what the future would hold.

While I definitely have several mixed emotions; Yesterday reminded us that delays are not denials.

Watching her smile while holding that license filled my heart in ways I can’t explain. As her mom, I still carry the emotions that come with epilepsy. I know the responsibility, the caution, and the importance of continuing to prioritize her health.

But I also know this:

Epilepsy may have delayed this moment…
It did not steal it!!!!

To every epilepsy warrior and every caregiver wondering if your loved one will reach their milestones—keep believing. They may arrive on a different timeline, but they are still worth celebrating.

Today, we’re celebrating freedom, resilience, and God’s faithfulness.

💜 One milestone at a time.

Health care costs are skyrocketing. If Congress does not extend health care tax credits, costs could double or even increase further for millions of patients and families. You can help! Call your members of Congress at 202-224-3121 and ask them to extend health care tax credits.
