Support your artists while they’re MIA. Update with what’s been going on with me will come later. ✍🏾 . Check out my book, model/advocacy features. Hydrocephalus Awareness Month is upcoming so these features are also a tribute to the cause. I may not raise thousands of dollars but more people in creative spaces know about it because of my passion for art. #workinprogress #fashionmodel #artist #linktree #model #features #htx #chronicillness #chronicles (at United States) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSxR_Mqni8_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Thinking positive won’t erase my diagnoses, my chronic illnesses, or the pain. Maybe a heating pad but that’s temporary. This type of suggestion is a low key micro aggression toward neuro-adaptive patients; patients that have to adapt to their surroundings while suffering neurologically. I , unfortunately, live in Houston - have been for four years and the weather is soggy af. Climate drives me bonkers with occasional migraines and anxiety cause it flash floods down here! . There is a plan to eventually move away FOR GOOD once my health is stable… How do you deal with people that perpetuate toxic positivity toward your illness? #symptoms #patient #medicine #selfportrait https://www.instagram.com/p/CQt0511HY5-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Congrats to my friend and mentor Dr. Wright for beginning her Neurologist Residency in Washington! She is a brain surgery survivor and activist herself. As well as a major inspiration for many hydrowarriors.💙 #hydrocephalus #chronicillnesslife #doctor #medicine #neurology #neuroscience (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO6Im3WnYAz/?igshid=e9n2owtl40c5

Starting to think I’m in a committed relationship with my specialists but it’s for a good cause! I’m having cranial nerve issues. The facial numbness and tingling is alarming but it’s happened several times before. . How many of you relate! I need neuro-normal ppl to understand that you guys have it MADE. While you guys get to go out or just wake up to play with your phone, ppl with chronic pain have to balance a plethora of doctor appointments along with regular life. It’s a contributing factor to my anxiety. #chronicpain #chronic #illness #pain #doctors (at United States of America) https://www.instagram.com/p/COybVu8H8ij/?igshid=9wuv5juctly3
