Im back.

It has been nine months since I last posted an article, nine months……

Usually, I apologise for not writing articles, but this time I won’t because I had to take some time to focus on myself.

The last time I wrote was in January and as you guys would know I was a final year IB student at the time, therefore all the exam prep, practise exams and final hand ins were all going on around that time.

Today I sit here at my desk, in my dorm, at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) with huge smile on my face, knowing I made another dream of mine come true and this was because of all the hard work and effort which I put in whilst taking some time to myself.

Although, I wasn’t posting anything, I still did a lot of work spreading my message and my story. I spoke at another TEDx event, in which the theme was, “Facing Fears”. I also co-Mc’d a student lead charity fashion show which was supporting The Children’s Heart Foundation.

On a personal level, I achieved a lot recently. I travelled for the first time in 2 years this summer. I spent a week in Singapore and it was possibly the most amazing thing ever (I will be writing a post about this later). I was also awarded a full scholarship at HKUST for community leadership and engagement. On top of this, I celebrated my second year having a defibrillator at the beginning of this month and am now looking forward to crossing the two mark line with my LVAD.

Its been 2 months since uni started and its been extremely stressful, but I don’t think that should be a reason for me not to write anymore. Therefore I just wanted to write this post, to update you guys on some of the stuff which has happened recently, and that I will be back to posting more often. I cannot wait to share some of my stories from the recent months and I can guarantee that even though we're close to the end of the year, I’ve got some pretty exciting stuff happening in the couple of months!

 The importance of being an organ donor! 

The fact that signing up to be an Organ donor you could save up to eight human beings from dying is a bigger positive than you can imagine. Saving a humans life is one of the things people can sometimes only imagine of doing. Through the act of Organ Donation, YOU can change this. 

 

Organ Donation gives everyone the ability to save a life. In fact, your eyes could help someone you’ve never met see the world. Your organs could make someone on the edge of dying get their breath back. Organ Donation mostly takes place after a signed up Organ Donor has passed. There is an extremely large gap between the number of registered donors compared to those awaiting Organ Donation world wide. 

 

The way I look at it is like this - when you were a child, you probably had the idea of one day wanting to be a Super-hero. Once you pass, you will no longer be needing those organs and they could be put to great use by saving another human beings life. When a person receives an Organ Transplant, not only do you become their hero, but you also become a hero to the many people involved in his/her life.
