I'm raising money for this event: Danny Did Chicago Marathon Team 2016
 My Message
When my cousin Dan asked me to run the Chicago Marathon with him I thought, "Hmmmm...that would be a cool race..." Then when Dan, who suffered from seizures much of his adult life, told me about the Danny Did Charity team he joined to run the Chicago Marathon, I knew I had to join the team and run with him. After years of suffering from seizures, my cousin Dan was able to undergo brain surgery to remove the part of his brain causing his seizures. His surgery was successful and he's been seizure free for 3 years and is training for his first marathon! Too many families are not as lucky as Dan, including the founders of Danny Did who lost their young son. Your donation in any amount is greatly appreciated and will be put to use doing amazing things for families with epilepsy, like providing a seizure detection device. Thank you so much for supporting me, my cousin Dan, and the Danny Did foundation.
 
My Goal:
$1,000.00
Amount Raised:
$1,160.00

About my cause:
Founded by Chicagoans Mike and Mariann Stanton in January 2010 after the sudden death of their four-year-old son Danny, the Danny Did Foundation’s primary mission is to prevent deaths caused by seizures. The Foundation is dedicated to advancing public awareness of epilepsy and Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP), enhancing the SUDEP communication model between medical professionals and families impacted by seizures, and gaining mainstream acceptance and use of seizure detection and prediction devices that may assist in preventing seizure-related deaths. Epilepsy affects nearly 3 million people in the United States and 65 million people worldwide. One in 26 Americans will develop epilepsy during their lifetime. The name of the Danny Did Foundation originates from the last line of Danny Stanton’s obituary, written by his dad: “Please go and enjoy your life. Danny did.”

Our 2015 Team raised over $60k last year and those funds were used to help place seizure detection devices in homes across the country. These devices alarm a caregiver during a seizure which can reduce the safety risks often associated with seizures. Parents appreciate this peace of mind and are thankful for the chance to address a seizure and keep their loved ones safe. We plan to beat that team fundraising number in 2016, and we hope you will be part of reaching this goal. Thank you for your support! To learn more, please visit www.dannydid.org.
