This blog is about school nurse, Christine, at the Margarita School. She is a wonderful school nurse in the Alhambra Unified School District. She went out of her way to contact Nathan Jones at our Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Los Angeles to invite the Love Your Brain Now Bus and the “Big Brain” to come to her school to educate almost 700 students and their teachers about the importance of caring for the brain, preventing brain trauma, and about epilepsy and seizure first aid.
Chris was an enthusiastic participant the entire day – from welcoming us in the morning to providing us with pizza and homemade cookies at lunch to helping take-down the “Big Brain” in the afternoon. She really cared about her students receiving these important messages. You are a wonderful school nurse, Ms. Christine.
We thank you and your fellow school nurses in California. All of you have such an important role in caring for students with epilepsy and helping all students to be more informed about epilepsy and to be more accepting and understanding of their classmates with epilepsy.
This is a shout-out to Ms. Christine and to all school nurses who go the extra distance.
