"DO WE NEED OUR PAIN" Huh???????????????????
You must be prepared for an onslaught of mail with that question. I don't think it follows that just because depression seems to be a part of this disease, that we there-fore want the pain. I have only had 2 or 3 days of "No headache" in the past year. Some nights I have 20 or 30 of them. Please trust me when I tell you. I hate them!!!!! I cannot live a normal life because of them. I am embarrassed when I have one in public. As a woman, I have been known to brag about how many hours I was in labor with my children. Labor has a finite time period, however, & is very normal and natural. This kind of pain is ugly. Good luck reading all the mail you bound to recive on this subject. Linda
