Hello Oprah,
I watch your show when I get home early from work and I must say you are just a very great but also very kind woman .
The reason for my email is that I'm a cluster "headache" sufferer . I'll leave the details for you to find out at clusterheadaches.com .
I have suffered since the age of 17 and I'm 27 now . The past ten years of my life have been a suffering misery .
The pain in itself is bad , but not being recognised is ten times as bad . The feeling of knowing that you are doomed and all alone in this world of many people makes a cluster sufferer very suicidal .
With the power of the internet a lot of cluster sufferers have found solace in numbers and feel a little better .
We need to go one step further though .
We need YOUR help and through the power of television, we may be able to help others who are needlessly suffering away and not knowing what is wrong with them .
You would be doing a lot of us in this condition a great favor .
Thank you .
Sincerely ,
Manuel . http://members.wbs.net/homepages/y/a/z/yazzman/sitting3.jpg
