WASHINGTON, DC-April 30th, 2008; T. S. Eliot wrote, "April is the cruelest month." As the W.H.O.* calls Migraine one of the cruelest diseases, MAGNUM thinks it is only fitting to end the month with the announcement of this years winners of the HealthCentral Network and HelpForHeadaches.com sponsored 2008 Putting Our Heads Together Poetry Contest. After all, would not T.S. Eliot himself, though not a Migraineur, appreciate our effort? He deeply loved his wife, Vivien Haigh, an adventurous and vivacious British subject, who sadly suffered horribly from intractable Migraines.
So with T.S. & Vivien watching over us MAGNUM would like to get right to announcing this years winners. We are thrilled to advise readers that this year, even though we gave very short notice, we were honored with many excellent entries that with poetically speak to the Migraine experience. We selected four placing awards, First, Second, Third, & Forth Place. In addition we issued six honorable mentions of merit. Please take time to read ALL of the winning entries, and when you have time, visit and peruse the other entries, as some many are well written and deserve attention.
