This is the last day of #MigraineAwarenessMonth 2017 (and I can hear many of you cheering – “Hooray! Donna’s stupid woe-is-me posts will FINALLY end for at least a little while! Dang, I wish she would SHUT UP!”😂)

I do apologize for the copious amounts of migraine awareness I pile on; it’s true that I’m not looking for pity… Just hoping to raise awareness of the multitudes suffering an invisible illness in silence. Of course everyone – EVERYONE – has their “thing,” their struggle, their burden to bear. Mine is no more or less… And struggles should never be compared (because there never is a comparison – everyone is an amazing individual).

I love to start each day with hope and a grateful heart. My life is rich with blessings: amazing friends, wonderful children, etc. I am full of Hope that migraine treatment will advance in the coming years – my episodic migraineur son will have options not available to me now. And I look at all the treatment I have access to that my parents and grandparents did not. Triptans only made their way into the pharma world in 1992! Now there are so many to choose from!

With a grateful heart full of hope, I wish you all a beautiful day full of precious moments to cherish!💜❤️💜
“Hope is the thing with feathers

That perches in the soul,

And sings the tune – without the words,

And never stop is at all…”
