"Those who suffer with migraine will readily identify with this documentary.  It shows what life is like for sufferers of this disease and how it can rob them of the joy of daily living. 

Losing time from work, missing out on family celebrations, and putting hobbies on the back burner are often routine for migraine sufferers. 

This program will educate those who think a migraine is just another headache and provide a reason for those with this disease to be optimistic that there is life with migraine."
