How dare you tell me that I can't have CH because I have 20 or more h/a per day! How would you like to have that many?
How dare you tell me that if I'm having a KIP 6 or 7 or 8, then I couldn't possibly be using the computer, or even thinking for that matter!
How dare you tell me I have it easy because half of my headaches are less than 20 minutes?
Have you walked in my shoes? Do you really know me? Do you have any idea how cruel your remarks and emails are?
Yes, I can work with a KIP 6. When 10 hours of your day, every day, is spent at KIP 6 or above, you learn how to go through the motions. I never said I could do it well. I can't add 2 and 2 when it gets above a 6, much less do my very analytical job. Do I have a choice? Can I quit just because of my h/a? NO! I'm a single parent of two kids; I own a house; I need to work to keep my medical insurance; I refuse to give in.
So I say again, HOW DARE YOU? You know who you are. You're the one who emailed me with nasty remarks. You're the one who told me to get off the message board because I have no idea of what others are going through. You're the one who called me a fraud. You're the one using yahoo email so people won't know who you are.
I know who I am. I am a survivor. What are you, other than a cruel coward?
And to those of you who don't deserve this "rant", I apologize.
