WILLOWDALE â€" Willowdale Epilepsy, a social club and parents‘ group now in its 14th year of operation. will again be holding monthly social evenings for victims of the disease, their parents and friends. Kay Stowe, founder of the group, said the socials, which will be held at St. Gabriel Centre, 672 Shep- pard. east of Bayview Avenue, will include dancing, games, dinner and other entertainment. Membership is open to those in their teens, right up to 70. She said the evenings are mainly for those epileptics whose seizures can‘t be brought under control by drugs. The evenings give them a chance to participate in a way they would not always be able to. There is stilll a great stigma attached to the af- fliction, she said. However, she wasn't blaming the public, which hadn‘t been properly educated in the subject. “Until they learn the three categories of epilepsy. they won't understand,“ she said. C-2 â€" THE LIBERAL. Wednesday. November 24. 1976 She said that these were: that which could be controlled by drugs; that which could be partially controlled by drugs; and that which couldn‘t be controlled. People with the latter, also suffered side effects. Mrs. Stowe got the idea for the evenings, because of her son, an epileptic, who suffered an injury at birth and has a} malformation leading to the brain. A member of the third categofy, Mrs. Stowe‘s son, now 31 suffers seizures of 36 to 48 hours at a time. “an theye‘s nqthing we can do about it.“ She said that her §on was unable to work, but had become involved with citizen band radios lately and it had opened up a new world to him. Mrs. Stowe said that the group is both interested in getting new members and volunteers. the latter being especially important. with the big Christmas dinner not far away. Those intérested in learning more about the group can call Mrs. Stowe at 221-9912.
