I can now tell you ....

About an exciting development for all of us clusterheads!!

National Geographic is going to do a show about Cluster Headaches! Yup! It is true! I was interviewed, Thursday, and they were very excited about the whole show.

They have been filming for a while, now, in all parts of the world. They plan on airing the show in October. As soon as I have the date, I will let everyone know.

This is a GREAT project, from what I hear, and will do a lot to get the information out there about our condition. I am very excited!

I want to thank PinkFloyd for helping to get this project going.

Just had to tell all y'all about this project!

Thanks Chuck. You be da man!!

There have been many of us involved and Clusterbusters has been working on this for more than a couple months.

Great people at National Geographic that have become very much interested in learning about us and our condition.
One never knows though what ends up on the cutting room floor or how things will end up being edited, but the producers do have our best interests in mind IMHO. Been though this a few times before and that wasn't always the case.

They've been filming our work in the states and over in Germany, interviewing our members, clinical trial participants and our researchers.
Besides wanting to portray what cluster headaches really are, they will be reporting some rather impressive (if I may say so myself) news.

As Chuck stated, the show is scheduled to air in October which is perfect timing considering we'll be breaking this news at our conference in September. (Ahem...come one come all Wink

Thanks again to Chuck and everyone involved.
Bobw

LOL They'll be no talking to him now Jimi! I can see it now. He's gonna show up with those Elton John shades and a fedora with a huge feather! Grin

Seriously, thanks to all involved. NatGeo is exactly the kind of outlet we need to be working with.

Where there is life, there is hope.
Where there is Oxygen, you must use proper caution.
So be safe, don't smoke while using O2. Kill the pain and not yourself.
