My Story…
I hate asking for donations, so let me tell you 3 reasons why I’m stepping out, becoming uncomfortable, and asking you to donate to Migraine research and education.
1. MIGRAINE HAS IMPACTED EVERY SINGLE ASPECT OF MY LIFE.
It has impacted my work, my friends and relationships, and even my freedom to move and travel as I’d like.
2. WE NEED BETTER, TARGETED TREATMENT OPTIONS.
I have a form of Migraine that is resistant to treatments. Unfortunately, there are very few targeted treatments for Migraine on the market, with most treatments being borrowed from other diseases such as epilepsy.
3. WE NEED AWARENESS
When I tell people I have Migraine, one of the first things they always say is “Oh I get bad headaches too.” I appreciate the heart behind the statement, but there’s such little awareness of how all-encompassing the disease can be. Awareness would mean better accommodations for Migraine-related disability and the ability to live a fuller, more independent life.
