Throughout Spain and in charge of the associative movement that moves around this disease, numerous events were held to make it visible.<\/p>\n

Numerous public buildings and monuments, such as the Cibeles, the Congress of Deputies, the Assembly of Madrid, the city councils of Barcelona, Tarragona, Lleida and Girona, the Senate and many more, were illuminated in orange, the color of Epilepsy in Spain.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][image_with_animation image_url=”28639″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”left-right” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]There have been events around epilepsy, such as concerts, information tables, interviews…<\/strong> but all with the push of the Associations. The government has not received any support, except for the lighting that was requested, and only the \u201cCiudadanos party\u201d has launched a viral campaign in support of people with this disease.<\/p>\n

Governments must become more involved in following the guidelines set by the WHO. The Global Intersectoral Action Plan (IGAP) for Epilepsy and other neurological diseases has been approved, a 10-year plan for countries to implement in their health and social policies. It includes 10 global targets for the next 10 years. Global target 5.1: to achieve a 50% increase in the coverage of epilepsy services by 2031 compared to the current level of coverage in 2021<\/strong>. Let’s see if they get down to work.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][split_line_heading animation_type=”default”]\n

These are the real measures that we want our governments to take seriously.<\/p>\n

I have to tell you that on this day I have been interviewed twice: one on a local radio, which I have been interviewed for at least 3 years for these dates, in which I tell a little about my day to day, and another one, an Instagram live, which was made by an Argentine girl, with epilepsy, who started by herself through the networks and now she even organizes congresses. So, I\u2019m already international. I just hope that these interviews will help someone to live their epilepsy with more optimism and a positive attitude<\/strong>, because, as an athlete with epilepsy who has just written a book told me, we have no choice but to move forward.<\/p>\n

The hot weather is coming, and the truth is that I tolerate it quite badly. But well, we will look for “tricks” to spend less heat and enjoy the summer.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”3%” bottom_padding=”0″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”center”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”]
