The frequent headaches that Sequoyah suffers both represent and manifest the virtually constant stress he is under, as a result of his being abandoned by his parents, somewhat lost within the foster care system (until he arrives at the home of the Troutts) and, to a significant degree, lost in terms of his sense of self. They are a literal, physical manifestation of his inner, emotional pain.
