Just thought I would share this here as well. Two links that explain how migraine is a disease that affects your whole body and life. Remember also that this is an invisible disease. So be kind to everyone, you don’t know what they may be dealing with day to day❤️

I have decided to add a border to my granny square quilt that shows different shades of migraine days. I only used black, different shades of grey, light blue and white for the different intensity of pain for the granny squares. In the border I decided I would use black for the worst days where I function only due to pharmaceuticals, a dark grey for days where I am still impaired but can function, light blue for better days and different colours of the rainbow for days with no migraine pain. One row of single crochet a day. You can see what January 2026 has been like so far.
