This has been a fascinating thread to follow. I’m eager to read BD’s next chapter. Miss Kitty is gorgeous and I would like to request more updates from her. GG, thank you for sharing the Wave Rogue link. Although I don’t need one, it some how makes me feel better that this technology is available.

Thank you, BD for helping us to dream big.

I am also a grandparent living with pain. I was on this journey when my children were small and I don’t remember it being so difficult. I suppose I was younger and had more patience for the constant noise and such. I love my grandchildren more than life itself but there are days that the constant chatter and running around gets to me so badly. I…[Read more]

I have found that with my heat triggered migraines that coming directly out of heat into AC tends to make them go full blown fast.

If I have been in the heat and feel the twinge of the migraine beginning and can do a gradual cool down the migraine doesn’t seem to be as bad. If I am outside and one begins, I try…[Read more]
