Meet Leon, the ONE behind Leon`s Pride at this year’s Walk for the ONE💜
It was an ordinary morning, just weeks before Leon’s second birthday, when his parents received news that would forever change their lives. Leon was diagnosed with focal epilepsy with tonic-clonic seizures, and suddenly, they were facing a reality no parent ever wants to imagine.
Since then, his parents have struggled to balance the fear of another seizure with their desire to let Leon live a normal, happy life. Through his hospital stay, doctor’s visits, and daily medication, Leon continues to be their sweet, silly boy, showing them just how strong he is.
The uncertainty of epilepsy is one of the hardest parts of their journey. Through it all, they are incredibly grateful for the love and support of family and friends as they adjust to life after Leon’s diagnosis.
We’re excited to welcome Leon and his family to the ESNJ community at their first Walk for the ONE! On Sunday, they’ll walk not only for Leon, but for everyone living with epilepsy and those who love them, finding comfort and connection among others who understand.

Meet Alyssa Cerchio, the ONE behind Alyssa’s Purple Power💜
Diagnosed with epilepsy at 12, Alyssa is now 22 and has spent the past 10 years navigating life with epilepsy. While her journey has included difficult and uncertain moments, it has also shown her how strong and resilient she is. Through it all, her family and friends have stood beside her, reminding her that she never has to face epilepsy alone.
For Alyssa, Walk for the ONE is about celebrating how far she’s come while being part of something bigger than her own story.
“I walk for the 12-year-old girl who was first diagnosed and didn’t know what the years ahead would bring. I walk for the 22-year-old woman I am today and everything I have overcome along the way. And I walk for every person living with epilepsy who deserves to feel understood, supported, and hopeful about their future.”
We’re thrilled to have Alyssa’s Purple Power back for another Walk for the ONE!
