I WAS JUST WONDERING IF ANY OF YOU CLUSTERHEADS WERE ALSO TEACHERS. I'VE BEEN TEACHING FOR 7 YEARS NOW AND HAVE BEEN "LUCKY" ENOUGH TO HAVE MY WORST CYCLES DURING SUMMER BREAK OR WINTER HOLIDAYS. I HAD A DOOZY IN CLASS A FEW WEEKS AGO AND KEPT THINKING I COULD WILL IT AWAY. I ENDED UP ALMOST LOSING CONTROL IN FRONT OF MY EIGHTH GRADERS. WHEN I CAME BACK FROM INJECTING MY IMITREX , IT TOOK ME QUITE A WHILE TO CONVINCE THEM I WASN'T DYING OR CRAZY. THAT WAS PROBABLY MY WORSE EXPERIENCE WITH CH. I HATE IT. IT MADE ME FEEL SO DEFEATED IN FRONT OF THOSE KIDS. WELL, I'M SURE YOU'VE ALL HAD SIMILAR EXPERIENCES. PEOPLE OFTEN ASK ME WHERE I GET THE STRENGTH AND PATIENCE TO DEAL WITH TEENAGERS ALL DAY. IF THEY ONLY KNEW.
THANX, LEIGH
