The quest for a cure for epilepsy and other debilitating diseases has been dealt a severe blow due to President Trump's freeze on health spending. Experts warn that federal spending cuts will lead to a rise in healthcare costs, making the country sicker and poorer without access to new treatments and medical breakthroughs, including those related to neurological disorders and chronic illness management. This move is expected to have far-reaching consequences on the healthcare system, affecting the development of innovative therapies and patient outcomes, ultimately impacting the overall quality of life for millions of Americans.
