Migraine Awareness Month #2: Tea for Two. If you could invite someone (any living person) to your home for tea for the purpose of explaining Migraine disease to them so they would truly understand it, who would it be and why?
This is an interesting question. I don't know for sure who I would pick. I guess that I can't name a specific person...I would like to sit down with a family member of a person who has recently been diagnosed with chronic migraines--a family member who isn't as understanding as my family is. I would like to be able to educate that person about what life is like for a migraineur...and to help him/her understand how different we wish life could be. Then I would leave and let my husband speak with that migraineur's family member so that he can give him/her the perspective of a family member who has adjusted to living with a migraineur. Perhaps my supportive husband could give that family member hints to help make that family's life a little easier. Not that it is ever easy, but Wayne does what he can to make it bearable.
