Since last Summer, I have been on a journey. Both mentally and physically. Symptoms haven't really changed much but my confidence grew. The balance issue remained but through the right exercise and learning new techniques, I began trusting my body again. Plus, spending more time around people with similar mobility difficulties, encourage me to venture … Continue reading Two weeks at physio hospital
Honest opinion on the COVID pandemic
I have been thinking how best to write about my thoughts but it seems the topic is still very divisive and I will never be 100% satisfied with my work. So any comments, I am very happy to hear them. Let me tell you a story. I first heard about Wuhan end of November, 2019. … Continue reading Honest opinion on the COVID pandemic
What do I fear?
There are things I don't like. Heights for example. I wouldn't go swimming in a deep sea either. I worry about falling. I fell many times. It is uncomfortable, painful and dumps your confidence. But, I do believe, my past experience changed the way I perceive threads. I still worry how is my condition affecting … Continue reading What do I fear?
Founding a brain tumour organisation

Why I no longer do keto?
I don't like the word DIET. I have never been on any to loose weight and I'm not planning to do so. However, I did try a number of different things to control the diagnosis. Long story short, I came across keto, and started doing it properly in January 2019. I significantly reduced carbs, cut … Continue reading Why I no longer do keto?
