Understanding Trigeminal Neuralgia: A Journey of Courage and Understanding
David Klein
At FaceForward, our commitment extends beyond fashion; it's about embracing challenges and celebrating resilience. Today, we shed light on a condition that epitomizes unwavering strength amidst adversity: Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN).
Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN), often referred to as the "Suicide Disease," is a neurological disorder characterized by excruciated facial pain. For many, the pain is relentless, described as electric shocks or stabbing sensations affecting the trigeminal nerve, one of the largest cranial nerves that carries sensaton from the face to the brain.
We recognize the journey of those battling this agonizing affliction. It's a journey marked by unwavering courage and resilience, as portrayed by individuals like our founder, Kathleen Klein. Kathleen's own experience with TN for over 10 years has been a testament to the human spirit's ability to endure.
The pain not only inflicts physical agony but also impacts mental and emotional well-being. It's a condition that tests one's resilience daily, challenging the very essence of endurance.
Despite the hurdles, those facing TN embody remarkable strength. Their courage shines through in their daily battles, their determination evident in their unwavering spirit to FaceForward.
At FaceForward, our mission resonates deeply with these stories of triumph over adversity. We are committed to creating a community that celebrates resilience, spreads awareness and fosters acceptance. Our fashion isn't just about style; it's a platform to amplifying voices, break stigmas and stand in solidarity with those facing challenges like TN.
To everyone enduring this pain, we stand with you. Your courage is inspiring, your resilience awe-inspiring.
