Title: hopefully not a stupid topic/question
Post by norma on Nov 1^st, 2002, 3:46am

hey guys just at the end of a lovely pain trip here, and been thinking.......which is difficult at times. i cant remember but i was thinking hows about we email oprah winfrey with our clusterhead troubles., maybe she would do a show, and maybe she could help get some drugs or funding for us??????

she does alot of different shows, and i think she is a down to earth person who might just be interested.

so what do you think??????? or have i truly lost my freaking mind?

It's been done. Some years back we did an e-mail campaign to her. Not a single response was received.

You can always give it another try though.

Norma,

While I am no fan of Oprah, I'm all for getting our message out to the mainstream media.

BTW, in my book, there are NO stupid questions when discussing what we must deal with!

I emailed Oprah a while back as well. The more requests she gets the more likely the producers are to look at the subject. Keep focus on the SUICIDE headache and CH with other aspects of life, that may help us more where producers are concerned.
