Summary

The council presented a certificate to Doris Amparo Morales Suarez on her 60th birthday, declared November 2025 Epilepsy Awareness Month and heard family remarks; a councilor stated (as a claim) that '30 percent of our residents' have epilepsy.

The Revere City Council presented a certificate of commendation to local resident Doris Amparo Morales Suarez on Dec. 15 in recognition of her 60th birthday and her life with epilepsy, and the council recorded a declaration naming November 2025 as Epilepsy Awareness Month for the city.

A councilor introduced the recognition, described Doris as 'the embodiment of resilience' and conveyed gratitude for her example to the epilepsy community. A family member spoke in the chamber, thanking the council and describing the personal importance of the recognition.

During remarks a councilor stated that '30 percent of our residents, have this condition.' That figure was given in the meeting as a speaker assertion and is reported here as such; the transcript and the meeting record do not provide supporting data for that percentage. The certificate and proclamation were placed on file by the council.

No city-level follow-up actions (such as funding or program announcements) were recorded in the transcript; the declaration is ceremonial and intended to raise awareness.
