10. Sunglasses have become a permanent part of every outfit.
9. The kids no longer ask what color is your headache–they know Mama has “green” headaches(”my green” headaches- get it?)
8. Your 2-year-old goes around saying “My head is killing me!”
7. Your 12 year-old has made more dinners than you lately.
6. You forget what frozen peas are really for.
5. Contingency plans happen more often than original plans.
4. Every family prayer includes, “And help Mama’s head to feel better.”
3. When “Honey, I have a headache” NOW means “You have to go pick up the kids from school.”
2. Baby begs you, ”Please no sleep in the closet anymore, Mama!”
1. All the kisses in the world don’t make your “owie head” go away.
Unfortunatley, these are all too true in our house. If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry. If you too have migraines, my sympathies go out to you. If someone in your life suffers as I do, please be kind to them. It is because migraines were taking over my life that I weaned my baby so I could treat them. Nothing has helped so far. I keep asking the Lord what I am to learn from this thorn in my side (or rather in my head) but I guess lots of patience is the only answer I see so far. All prayers are appreciated–He may not remove the trial but He will always strengthen those who ask.

Get well soon. Heather says you need a root canal. After she got one her migraines almost disappeared entirely. Have you had your hips checked? I’ve talked to podiatrists and they say if your legs are uneven, or your hips are a little out of alignment it can cause lots of problems. I know you see a chiropractor, has he said anything? We love you and hope you feel better soon. Good luck on “coming out of the closet”.=-)
