About this campaign
Mickie has recently signed a contract to receive a seizure response dog. But these dogs cost approx $10,000 so we are working on raising funds to support this! To read more on Mickie please visit www.facebook.com/mickie1inamillion and www.gofundme.com/money4mickie
Mickie was diagnosed in June 2013 with Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy after her seizures started out of nowhere. She's had nosebleeds for over 3 years now, and her seizures have slowly increased in frequency. She has up to 12 seizures a month, and while her seizures are only focal (staring spells), just one of these episodes can put her out for up to 24 hours. Her seizures have gotten to the point where on 6/24/14, Mickie had a VNS implanted in her chest with a wire running up into her neck in an attempt to control her seizures. Every couple of minutes, she receives shocks in her brain to try to control her seizures. Mickie's seizure dog is a blessing in the wait. This dog will be trained to retrieve her medications, bring her out of her seizure faster, turn her over during a seizure so she doesn't aspirate, etc. Mickie will know she's not alone if anything happens, and this is very important for us to be able to raise the money for her!
Please PLEASE share this with your family and friends so that they may support Mickie as well!

I have seen this little girl go through so much over the past two years....she has bounced back and gotten up every day to keep doing what she's doing! Living life and loving herself! This motto was made for her!
My granddaughter, half her childhood has been robbed due to illness, the other fear, fear from her peers looking at her differently, fear of a seizure out somewhere or if they get worse falling and hurting herself,love u good luck!
We love Mickie and she is an inspiration. Her smile should never fade so we want to help her have something to smile about. Love from your mates who come from the land Downunder xox
My son suffered from epilepsy until the age of nine. I know what a struggle this is. I wish you all the best Mickie!
