If you haven't seen it already, I was featured as one of the guest bloggers on the Invisible Illness Week Blog: should I claim the label to my illness as part of my identity?
Be sure to check out the other guest bloggers featured there.
Be well,

HI
I am Liz over at migrainecommunity on blogspot.
I posted a comment about how wonderful I thought your post was. I think you should not have your chronic pain define you, it is a small part of you. What makes you who you are is how you treat others. The pain is there, I believe to test us in some way!!!
I truly loved reading it.
If you do not mind I would love to put a link on my web page to that!
Wonderful Job and I hope you have a migraine free day!

I really liked your post! I think you address a really important issue about chronic illness and identity that is difficult for most of us.
MJ - What a great article! I love reading your writing - and you hit the nail on the head with this issue. You are so much more than your Migraines! Lovely picture, too.
