This is my first article since the day of my accident December 17,2025: it really speaks to the on-going lack of education that persists regarding chronic migraine: see if you relate:

@LAWhalen13 Cont. We knew she didn’t like her picture taken, but the chair of the my department asked if she’d be willing to have one with my golden retriever at the park; it was “Her Grave” that saved me after losing my first golden. It was a very spiritual moment she shared.

@LAWhalen13 Obviously, as an enormous lover of Mary Oliver’s work, I anxiously await your biography. My greatest thrill came to be back in 2005, when my college brought her to do a reading, and I was able to introduce her, pick her up from the airport, etc.

I lost my beloved golden retriever, Gretta, two weeks ago, and the migraines have been daily. However, I do give credit to Trudhesa (with an anti-nausea pill, too), Cefaly, and Ubrelvy, and Emgality for keeping me out of a long cycle-at least so far.
