My Story…
I’m excited to be participating in Miles for Migraine, an event that’s close to my heart. As someone who I’ve been suffering from migraines since middle school, but growing up without healthcare, I thought they were just bad headaches. As a Black Latin woman, it’s been even harder to find doctors who truly listen to me and take my pain seriously. I’ve paid for doctor visits out of pocket in adulthood, but even then, I feel overlooked because of the color of my skin. Despite trying everything, there’s still no cure, I know how challenging life with migraines can be.
I’m raising funds to support migraine research and treatment programs for those who battle this invisible but debilitating condition. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to better treatments and a cure. I’m also sharing this to raise awareness and to ask for your support as I participate in Miles for Migraine. This cause is about more than just funding research—it’s about fighting for a healthcare system that listens to all of us, especially women of color who are too often dismissed.Your contribution could help someone live without pain, without fear of their next migraine attack.
Please consider donating to my campaign and supporting this incredible cause. Lets make every mile count!
Thank you so much for your generosity and support! Together, we can make a difference.
