Hello, dear friends, fellow moms, and everyone in our compassionate community—it’s Jill Swing here in Charleston, South Carolina, reaching out with an open heart. For those who know me, or if this is your first time hearing from me, I’m the mom to my beautiful daughter Mary Louise, who’s faced severe epilepsy since she was so little. As president and co-founder of the SC Compassionate Care Alliance, I’ve spent over a decade advocating gently but persistently for the tools that bring relief and peace to families like ours.
