This post has a dual purpose… I’m still smiling 
1st: I received an email from MyMigraineConnection.com informing me that my blog is one of 10 Top Site Award Recipients! Here is what their page with all the honored sites says:
“Our 2007 Top Site winners include small websites and individual blogs and were chosen based on their candid and informative content. In giving these awards, we hope to recognize the individuals and organizations who share our vision in providing comprehensive, interactive and vital information on living with head pain disorders. MyMigraineConnection and HealthCentral.com would like to congratulate our 2007 winners and sincerely thank them for producing high-quality, influential sites in the Migraine community!”
I never realized that my page would be recognized in this way I feel very honored, and thank the two sites and people involved for selecting my page.
2nd – The THANK YOUs go out to everyone who has visited my page and has given me words of encouragement. I also thank those whose headache pages that I visit regularly – the fact that we all do our best to keep up with our pages is helping so many people, and most importantly, ourselves. It really has helped me to deal with the emotional aspect of my “headache journey”. For that, I thank you.
The CONGRATULATIONS go out to everyone who also had their sites honored!

So, basically, you should make sure to visit these other GREAT headache/migraine blogs and sites. I am very new to the world of blogging, but have really enjoyed it so far, and plan to continue it as long as I need to. Hopefully, together as a headache and migraine community, we will all be able to post positive final entries on our pages someday soon.
And with that, I shall attempt to sleep after a long headache day.

Wow! Way to go with being one of the Top 10 Site Awards and thanks for posting the other Top sites as well. Everytime I come to your site and read your blogs I can’t help but nod my head and agree with what you write. It really hits close to home. As a mom of a daughter who has had daily headaches for 4 and a half years now I too like your parents wish that I could take on my daughter’s headaches and give her some relief. And I keep hoping and checking for something that has helped others and worked in the hopes that it will help her. So know that your sharing helps so many who can relate. I hope the future will bring relief for you, my daughter and all who suffer these daily headaches. So keep up the great work!
