I've met a few CHeads on Myspace who for one reason or another don't frequent this site. I talk a bit about it on my page and in some blogs, so anyone who searches for the words cluster headache can find me easily enough. That is how I met a cool dude from Texas named Martin who, was here for a bit but didn't like the vibe of whatever was going on at the time. He is part of one of the Myspace CH groups but - those are all lame and basically inactive, so I steer people this way.
This was just happenstance though:
I got a friend request from a rapper the other day. I accepted his invite, and he decided to check out my show last night. Well, not sure at what point I mentioned clusters during the show, but apparently made some mention of them because today, this was in my Inbox from the guy:
Quote:
I wrote him back a paragraph or so, and told him to go check out clusters on YouTube and check this place out (not knowing if maybe he or someone he knows has CH) but shortly afterwards I did a search on YouTube (as I do on occasion just to see how it's grown) and this was the first video I watched.
THIS GUY NAILED TO A T the perfect PSA for CH.

After seeing the Goadsby vids and other vids... it just thrills me to see what I envisioned and knew was possible 3 years ago grow to help educate others about CH, and possibly even help some people get properly diagnosed by a medium like YouTube that holds potential for more than just cute cats, or idiots riding skateboards off of garage-tops.
Just wanted to share this with you guys. I thought the roundabout way I found this video was pretty cool, and lets me know that when I talk about CH on the show, people are listening.
Peace,
