It sounds pretty exciting Melissa.  Hopefully, you'll be helping prevent a lot of pain in others.  I'll be watching.
You have a horde of supporters behind you.
Knock 'em dead!

YEAH, how about an AIRDATE and maybe a channel listing so we all know which affiliate stations in our areas will be showing it, or for some of us who have satellite.  A Title to teh show might be helpfull too.

Polish up those belly beads!!!  How about an OUCH tattoo above it?  Jonny probably can lead you to a tattoo artist ...

Are you going to be representing OUCH or are you going on as just a Cluster sufferer? I've seen the show and they can get pretty down and dirty. My worry is that they'll try to make us look like a bunch of dope heads or something.  Don't let that happen.

No, I'm going regarding the topic of anorexia.  If they get down and dirty, I'll walk off stage.  I can't imagine that even happening though.  It's too sensitive of an issue.

No, they told me to just use anti-bacterial soap and water.  Nothing else.

Oh, I had that one time (don't you just LOVE that line?) but I got over it.... I got CH. I was at 97 pounds for years, then I got Ch and they put me on steriods!!!! So much for the 97 pound weaklin'. Pretty soon I was looking for TENT material to make clothes. The door knob looked good enough to eat.  It's hell getting 'some' of it off again. Think I could use a little anorexia right now. Gotta get in that bathing suit for FL and the pink blow up thingy.....

Too bad I can't get "over it" with cluster headaches.  Anorexia is not a diet.  You can't just "use a little to get in that bathing suit".  That's not how eating disorders work.  Sorry, I'm stressed out and frustrated and sad.  This isn't a flame.  Just a clarification.
Title: Re: Going to New York!!!
Post by Margi on Sep 22nd, 2003, 4:43pm
Nope, haven't set the dog on fire for quite a few years now.  My gosh, woman, you have the memory of an elephant!  LOL

and, yes, I'll go pet my husband for you.  He likes that.  ;)

Jewel, I'm sure you know that Barb was just kidding.  We're really hoping you do get to at least mention that you are affiliated with cluster headaches - we need all the publicity we can get, if you get the chance.  Best of luck to you.
Title: Re: Going to New York!!!
Post by Jewel on Sep 23rd, 2003, 7:26am
I'm sorry about my last post to Barb.  I'm just really stressed out over this whole NY thing.  Anorexia is a very sensitive subject for me.  I apologize, I was just really upset.  Hope you can all forgive me.  
Title: Re: Going to New York!!!
Post by Jewel on Sep 23rd, 2003, 7:27am
Margi:  Don't worry, I'll be sure to bring up the subject of Clusterheadaches to the producer.   ;)
Title: Re: Going to New York!!!
Post by BarbaraD on Sep 23rd, 2003, 7:37am
No offense taken and I DID have it. I just make jokes. My family went through that with me. Then I got CH. I've just learned to make jokes to cope with things. I guess that goes with age. I'm OLD too. Can't do much about that one.

Post by Miss_Deleny on Sep 23rd, 2003, 7:40am
Wising you luck on your trip .. I agree, anorexia is a touchy subject and a horrible mental disease. :(

I had it when I was younger and went through years of getting over it. At times I still find myself going back to the "old" ways of eating and have to fight to get back on track again. Luckily though, I realize whats going on before letting it take control of me again and getting to the point I was at.

Let us know when the air date is .. I'm sure most if not all will be watching  :)

Wishing you a safe trip with loads of fun in NY!
~April~

Jewel,
I know how you feel, I suffered for years with the same disorder.  It took a toll on me and my family.  I almost died, I finally got the help I needed, it came together for me mind wise.  I wish you the best.  

Take care,
Cindra

I know.  And yes, now I know how it feels.  

I haven't actually overcome anorexia yet.  I'm still in recovery.  Still struggling from day to day, but improving.  I have a lot of family and friends that are excellent supporters.  I don't know what I'd do without them.

Too bad I didn't know this beforehand cause I would have liked to have been able to hook up and met you.  I met only one other person with CH briefly in my headache specialist office for 5 seconds.  I work in Manhattan and would have liked to have met you outside where they tape the show.  Well another time I guess.  Hope you enjoy the City and have a safe trip.  Peace.  Stuey

bah 400 songs isnt to bad. I lost everything about 3 years ago. EVERYTHING! No I dont think you understand, I mean E V E R Y T H I N G! (Got pretty stoned while backing up my drive b4 a FDISK and landed up FDISKing the backed up drive too!)
Moral of the story, if you are gonna partition pay real close attention to MenuItem 4 while you toke, or toke real good while you attention pay.
