This year Migraine Day of Action will be held on September 12th and EMHA has created an initiative called #MigraineBrighterFuture ¿What is #MigraineBrighterFuture? It´s an online campaign which involves patients all around the globe and everybody who would like to help on raising awareness about Migraine. ¿How to participate? September 12th participants will need to upload a photo on social media with a caption including the hashtag #MigraineBrighterFuture and a sentence which starts with the followings words: "For the chance to...". This sentence needs to be some kind of action that sounds completely normal and easy to accomplish for anyone who reads it but a complete challenge for someone suffering from migraine. An example of this will be “For The Chance To get back to work”. Everyone goes to work every day but someone who suffers from migraine can have a crisis during their work but no one in the workspace will notice or really understand that is not a simple headache. We would love everyone to participate in this project so save the date and help us spread the word!
