A few weeks ago I was crossing the road with my friend, I didn’t know when I started shouting “please hold my hand”. She was puzzled and told me to calm down that she was watching too. I didn’t doubt anything of what she said, it was when we got to the other side of … Continue reading Free

When my dad suffered a stroke in 2016, while he was in a coma after his surgery, I remember my mum having several meetings with the neurosurgeons and cardiologists so often.

A few months ago now, while I was home, I had a strong craving for pepper soup, I got my ingredients out, cooked my soup and was fortunate to have my friend and her sister around to eat with me.
