How to abort a hit if you are 4.
I thought you might enjoy Jasper's definition of how clusters work.
Mummy: So what do you think makes your head hurt?
Jasper: There is a monster and it gets into my head. It eats my inside of my head and thats why it hurts
Mummy: How does that beast get into your head?
Jasper: It's not a beast, it's a monster like the one that chases Harry Potter.
Mummy: Well how does the monster get into your head then.
Jasper: It gets in through my mouth when I have dinner's I don't like and then it hides. (nice try huh? he thinks he can get away with chocolate and chips for the rest of his life!!)
Mummy: So how do you make the monster go away.
Jasper: I get my magic mask and breathe and that blows the monster out of my nose and then it can't hurt me anymore.
So there you have it, get a clustermasx, its a monster blow job!!! 
I'm just over the moon I have something that works, that Jasper is willing (and eager) to use and that won't do him any harm as he grows which, with the other meds available, I can't be so sure of.
Cheers Ben! I'm going to post this on the masx thread too to make sure Ben see's it as he doesn't often wander onto the general board I know.

Hugs for that brave little Man are certainly in order...
Huge ones for Mum as well...what a big heart she has.
This only goes to show that more agressive investigation and research into methods of cycle cessation and prevention is needed.
This disease does NOT discriminate, and for Jasper, Megan and Dylan, Julia, Chickabiddy and all the other cluster touched children out there who now or may in the future develop this horror, I will not end my work on this cause until there is reliable pain ending treatment, and not simply pain management.

You know what I've learned most from Jasper?
How to just get on with it. He doesn't whine, he gets hit, he gets on with it and he goes back to playing. Over simplification as I'm sure you realise but he has never ever once whined about his head hurting (as I have) he has never cried knowing another one is coming even when I'm PF (as I have) He loves life, he enjoys every minute he can and he has fun (as I'm trying to emulate)
I know he is my son and I'm naturally prejudiced but I really admire him and think he is a remarkable child.
Proud mother? you bet your boots.

What an awesome little guy he is Helen. You deserve a ton of credit because it's through your wise words to him that he does just get on with it.
Good job Mom! Brave boy Jasper!

You're not the only one who thinks he's a remarkable child, luv. We all do. Give him (and Brid and Barney) huge nani hugs from me, OK?
And, I'm sorry...I gotta go with Jabs and Rex... it probably is the vegetables. He needs chocolate, lots of chocolate.

Shit, that made me cry.
It hit me especially hard since I am beginning to realize that my daughter may also be developing clusters. She's 13, and I know PMS brings on headaches too, but she has these headaches that look way to familiar to me. I keep trying to deny the possibility, but it's there.
Anyway, it sounds like he is a real trooper, as my daughter is too. She doesn't even complain about them very much. She amazes me.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

I'm no doctor, and this isn't happening enough yet to make a doctor visit useful, but it's starting in her the exact same way it started in me. She described it to me in detail, in the same uneducated way that a person would who doesn't know what they just had.
For me, it started with one bad headache at a time, several months/weeks/days apart, but very distinctive. What I mean is, they had a signature that could not be mistaken, but they only happened one at a time, infrequently. The headache would be an instant-on excrutiating pain behind my right eye, with no warning that I was aware of. It would make my eye turn beet red and my sinuses would instantly be stuffy to the point of not being able to breath from my nose at all. I would be paralysed with pain, but only for a few short minutes, followed by an almost instant relief to the pain and then complete exhaustion.
My daughter is describing the exact same thing, and it scares me. I am still pretty sure that the odds are way against her having it too, but the thing is I've never described this to my daughter so she didn't learn it from me, she must have experienced it. I am hoping against hope it does not get worse and become the beast that I know so well now. If she starts to have multiple of these at a time, or starts having them more than the 2 she has described, I will get her to my neuro and see what we can do.
