Campaign idea: Eric is walking unaided again

Eric lost mobility after decades of seizures and grief, but specialist gym training helped him walk unaided again.

This story

Eric was diagnosed with epilepsy following a major seizure at age one, which caused learning disabilities and later sight loss. After his mother died in 2024, the grief left him anxious and struggling with his mobility. In 2025, he began working out at a specialist gym, building his balance and regaining the ability to walk without aids.
