Our friend June sent me a birthday package on Friday. She sure made me smile. Here is what she sent me. Notice the wonderful poodle card on the left!
As soon as I had mentioned to all of you in my last post that my headaches had finally become quite low and bearable, boom!, they are nasty. I called the neurologist's office this morning. I am not impressed with Imitrex. I thought it was supposed to knock these headaches out. I can only take three tablets a week. And only take tylenol 10 days a month. The heat is really, really messing me up. If I am outside for 2 minutes, the headache pain soars. I have a feeling I am headed to the medical college's headache clinic. The neurologist had said if we could not get these under control after trying things, then that is where I need to be. sigh.
So, I am able to garden by going out first thing in the morning before the sun and heat come.
Oh! One more thing! Take a look at us. :) I asked Madeleine to take an updated profile picture of me and all three poodles.

Happy Birthday to you, Vickie!!!! So nice to read that you could celebrate with your mom. Enjoy this wonderful gift from June, she is such a sweetie.
Not so good to hear that the headache has become worse again through the hot weather. But it seems that there is still hope when nothing helps so far and take the next step and go to this special clinic.
A wonderful picture that Madeleine took of you with your cute poodles.
Oh, Vickie! Happy belated birthday. The gifts from June are so thoughtful and so very sweet ....just like June....and just like you. I am sad to hear your pain has come back with a vengeance and hope the headache clinic can help. Is that Mayo Clinic? I love, LOVE your new profile picture. A pretty lady surrounded by a swarm of attentive admirers.
Sending many hugs, my dear friend

Happy Birthday! You look so much younger than your years. That's a lovely photo with your 'babies'.
So more headache woes. I get problems in hot weather too. Drink tons of water if you don't already do that. I think dehydration can exacerbate the problem. Hope the experts can figure this out if the Imitrex doesn't do it.
Happy birthday, Vickie! Your poodle picture is so sweet. : ) I'm so sorry about the increased headache activity. {Hugs} I pray that they will be able to calm them down soon!
Happy Brthday my Dear vicky and so happy you could spend this wonderful day with your Mom.
I'm very sorry that your headache has become so worse.

Ah--47... that sounds so very young to me! I wish you every happiness in your "new year"--and a special wish for those nasty headaches to just leave you alone. Love the photo of you and the poodles--you look very pretty and relaxed. I guess holding them is good therapy!!
Enjoy your day!

Your gifts of June are great, the image of Our Lady is so beautiful. Also you look very happy in the midst of your beloved animals. I very much hope that he will soon be feeling better.
From the heart of your Sandra
Happy birthday! Wonderful photo of you and the poodles.
You need some real answers about your headaches - maybe the clinic can help.
Happy Birthday TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you.
Hope you had a lovely day my sweet friend .
Love the photo with your babies .
How can we get rid of these headaches ?
This is worth trying
Try looking at your food intake ,when you get a bad head write down what food you had the day
before .
Do this over a month and just see if a pattern forms .
Thats when I found out about chocolate and cheese my headaches were so bad I was in bed 3 days out of 7. I read in a book once that women at 50 can have this happen .
I stayed away from cheese and chocolate for 10 yrs, now I can eat it again and I don't get headaches !
I had head scans and every thing but they could not find any thing wrong , so I found this out myself .
Worth trying .
Have a good week , always thinking of you hugs.
You received wonderful gifts from June.
Your iris looks gorgeous. It has a special color, beautiful!
And you're so pretty with the dogs.
Happy Birthday Vickie:) Chocolate cake at mom's sounds the ideal birthday treat.
It sounds like you are being put through a process of elimination with your headaches,I hope the answer is close by so that you get long term relief from pain.
Happy Birthday Vickie :) I completely understand the headache pain. Immitrex didn't work for me either, neither does Maxalt although it is a bit better at hiding the pain. Humidity is my worst enemy :( Take care sweet friend. I'm thinking of you and hoping the headaches ease.
Happy belated birthday! Sounds like you had a lovely day. I've been wanting something chocolate so your cake especially sounds great :). Madeleine's portrait is exquisite; I can't imagine how she got so much detail in a 2" square. Amazing! I'm sorry your headaches are worsening. Hopefully the clinic will have new and successful forms of treatment.
Hope your birthday was a great one! You are a wonderful friend! June gifted you with some lovely presents. And I am sure the celebration with your Mom was extra special! Hugs!
Happy Belated Birthday Vickie, hope your had a great day with your mom.
Hope you get well soon from the terrible headaches. Take care!
Happy Belated Birthday! I hope you had a wonderful day. Beautiful iris. Continued prayers going your way.
Belated birthday wishes Vickie!
Mine was on the 1st June :)
Happy birthday wishes, Vickie!!
What an unusual color of iris - I love it.
Always praying.
Happy Belated Birthday!!!!
A lovely photo of you and your dogs.
I do hope the headaches ease for you.
Happy Belated Birthday! Sounds like you had a wonderful day with your family.
Great gift from June, the perfect card too. I love the Official Portrait for your Birthday - Her Majesty with her Loyal Poodles!
Happy, happy, happy belated birthday from me!! 47? You are still a baby. Smile. I think it's great that you still go home for your birthday. Do you get cake AND ice cream? LOL Your flowers are beautiful as usual. You know how I feel about irises. LOL
