Sad post but I just saw this :( Nikhil moved to Australia from Fiji and was diagnosed with leukaemia at just 17. He went through so much - chemo, heart surgery, chronic illness - but still was so brave and strong enough to finish university where he studied medicine

He was such an amazing inspiration to me and so many others. He was such a smart, innovative person and had so many ideas to make navigating health care so much easier for those living with illness and disabilities :(

My heart is a little broken today. RIP Nikhil who was such a brave, strong person, and an inspiration to so many ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

there is local museum in my area that i really want to volunteer at. the way it works is you reach out to them with an email which i did, and then they send out a google form which i filled out, and then i heard nothing for a whole month.

i reached out and got nothing, and then i just called today and couldn't even speak to someone directly and had to leave a voicemail.

they legit put a linkedin post up advertising for volunteers which is how i found out about it all. it just sucks because it's pretty close by and i can't drive right now, so it would be nice to go somewhere local, but now i just feel like giving up

i'll wait a bit to see if they reply to my voice mail, if not then oh well i guess. is it always this hard to work for free lol

this symptom is honestly more annoying than the seizures. I have temporal lobe seizures that are controlled with meds so my neurosurgeon doesnt to touch my tumour just yet. it’s also pretty deep in my brain (glioneuronal)

so right now we’re doing a watch and wait thing. I’m gonna see him next year, but in the meantime I’m dealing with vertigo. I was just wondering how everyone else handles it? I hate feeling like I’m gonna hit the floor. It makes me scared to be on my own. idk how else here deals with it and would appreciate any advice ❤️

i had three doctors tell me that everything i was experiencing was just health anxiety. i was on a waiting list to see a neurologist for a year before finally seeing one, and then we went from there to do some tests, and that's how we found out about my tumor.
