Peggy worked as an attorney for 12 years until her occasional migraines became a chronic, everyday occurrence. In 2013, this disabling disease caused Peggy to stop working. Peggy has encouraged others with chronic pain through her blog, ChronicHopeBlog.com, and has recently begun sharing her story as a patient advocate. Through her battle with chronic migraine, Peggy is learning to find her value in who she is rather than in her job or her accomplishments.
