Good morning, everyone!


I'll probably be in the car on my way to Philadelphia by the time most of you read this. Nancy and I are headed to Philly to attend the International Headache Congress (IHC).


This is the first time either of us has attended the IHC. It was last held in the United States in 2001. Since it is being held in the US, it will combine the meetings of the American Headache Society (AHS) and the International Headache Society (IHS).


As you may have read, Mrs. Cindy McCain will be delivering the keynote address Thursday afternoon. (See Migraines, Cindy McCain, and the International Headache Congress for more on this.) To bring you a bit more information about Mrs. McCain, her life with Migraine disease, and her thoughts about the needs of Migraineurs, I'm very pleased to tell you that I've been able to get an interview with her on Thursday. I promise to get the interview written up and posted here for you as soon as possible.


This is a great learning experience for Nancy and me and, by extension, for you. We'll be posting about the conference from our hotel room in the evenings, and when we get back, we'll have lots of research and other new information to share with you.


Keep watching for updates!


Have a good week,
