The Migraine Mafia

On paper, Viive McBroom has it all; a loving husband, a key position in a fast-paced, technical field--one promotion away from real success. But that's only if you ignore one little problem.

 

Sandwiched between one migraine and the next, Viive's life is like those choose-your-own-adventure books you read as a kid, only less fun and with a lot more drugs. Faced with frustration from her loved ones and the dark machinations of a new colleague, Viive feels herself getting pulled under by guilt, apologies, and workplace shenanigans. But then she meets the Migraine Mafia, a quirky, vibrant support group, and she discovers that a room full of strangers just might be able to change the way she views her illness--and realizes that if she doesn't learn to ask for help, her health isn't the only thing she stands to lose.

 

Sometimes painful, frequently hilarious, always entertaining, The Migraine Mafia is the story of one woman's quest to thrive in the face of chronic illness.
