🌟 Shining a Light on Trigeminal Neuralgia with Jessica Smiles and Sparky!🌟
Meet Jessica Smiles, a true friend of Sparky’s and a dedicated advocate for the Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) community. Jessica has been instrumental in raising awareness and sharing her journey, reminding us all of the importance of Sparky’s mission.
Sparky isn’t just a companion; he’s a movement! By hosting Sparky for a few days, you can help spread the word about TN and the challenges we face. Every story shared makes a difference, and together we can create a supportive network for those affected.
As a TN Warrior myself, I’ve been navigating this journey for 14 years while on disability. Despite the challenges, I still find joy in teaching part-time at Three Minneapolis schools for adult community education and learning disabled classes. Here I am at Edison High School and Northeast Middle School, putting in a couple of hours each day to make a difference in my students’ lives.
Sparky joined me on the first Saturday in May, just as I was heading out for the annual “Walk for Animals” fundraiser in the Twin Cities, MN. Before that, we made a trip to the neurology department at the University of Minnesota for a skin biopsy to test for small fiber neuropathy. It’s been a long road—my TN diagnosis came in November 2024, a whopping 12 years after my first flare. Yowza!
Let’s keep the conversation going and support each other. You can make a big impact by sharing your story and hosting Sparky. Together, we can uplift the TN community and create a brighter future for all warriors out there. 💪❤️

⚡️Trigeminal Neuralgia Warriors⚡️
The day you are diagnosised with Trigeminal Neuralgia, you should be handed resources for support. I found myself relying on Google and joining various social media groups to seek information and community. Every diagnosis should come with guidance, not just the heavy news of an incurable condition and a prescription. TN can flip your world upside down, let’s ensure no one feels alone in this journey. 💪 The Facial Pain Association The Facial Pain Research Foundation .

Instead of getting lost in the "what ifs," focus on small, manageable goals each day. Celebrate the little victories, and allow yourself grace on tougher days. You’re not alone on this journey!
