Learning how my muscles work
Have you ever known you were doing something wrong, but no one has been able to tell you how to do it right? I have, especially with exercise and posture. Last year I went to a migraine clinic that worked a multiple prong approach. Parts of it worked, but one part didn’t, and that was…

Too Many Glass Balls
To reuse Amelia’s metaphor, I’ve dropped the plastic balls, which includes this blog. My slow down in posting started by me living in the moment and enjoying life and my family. I wanted to soak the good in not try to process it in words. I had the energy to participate fully in life, which…

A Day in the Life of a Neurodivergent Family
I’m taking a brief interlude from explaining my migraine treatment to tell you about the day I had last week. It started like any normal day. I woke up around 7:15, but had a hard time getting out of bed until 8 or 8:30. I went upstairs to work on the large amount of dishes…

Migraine treatment plan
After getting all my test results in my doctor came up with a 4-6 month treatment plan depending on how I react. The first prong of my treatment plan is doing a diet that first came about to treat seizures, keto. The keto diet I am on is more restrictive in some ways and less…
