Are you a migraine sufferer? Do you know someone who is? I am, and they totally suck. There's absolutely no way of curing them except by sleeping them off -- if you can even get to sleep! I've thought a lot of things about my migraines before (all of which weren't very nice), but I sure haven't ever thought of them as inspirational! But these people were spurred to translate the pain they feel during a migraine into artwork -- and it's very cool! Who woulda' thought, huh? But, as they say, pain is one of the best catalysts behind creativity, whether it be emotional or physical. If you would like to read the story behind it, you can find it here.

Thank you, Sister, for sending this to me! :)

I take zomig for my migraines... it helps. Hope you are feeling better today. Love you, Leigh!

Aside from these people's pain, that is some great artwork. Thanks for sharing.

I used to get numerous migraines every month until I started seeing a chiropractor. I now only get them when I eat too much chocolate (allergy)or when I am in the sun too long. You should try going to a chiropractor. Mine helped my daughter get over enuresis (bed wetting) and ear infections as well.
