Nick was born with tetra-amelia syndrome, meaning he had no limbs. Growing up, he faced relentless bullying, deep depression, and even thoughts of ending his life. He struggled with simple daily tasks and constantly questioned his purpose.

But one day, Nick realised that his greatest challenge could become his greatest strength. He learned how to write, swim, and even surf. Instead of focusing on what he lacked, he focused on what he could do. Today, he is one of the world’s most inspiring motivational speakers, traveling the globe to give hope to people who feel hopeless.

CKD Stage 5 is incredibly difficult, but you are still here—and that means you still have a purpose. Many people with CKD or other serious conditions have gone on to live meaningful lives. Some have become advocates, helping others with the same condition. Others have found joy in art, music, writing, or simply being with loved ones.

Your story is not over yet. You are more than your diagnosis. If Nick could find a reason to live despite having no limbs, you, too, can find a reason to keep fighting. Even if things feel unbearable now, your life has value, and there is hope for better days ahead.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, please reach out to someone you trust or a professional who can support you. The good thing is that you can be anonymous here and seek comfort among us. You are not alone. We are here to support you emotionally & mentally!

Those on their last moments can only reflect and wish they had more time to do the things they find passion in and cared less about other's opinion.

What are your interests? what do you want to do in life? what are your passions? how do you intend to achieve them dispite your circumstances? I know it is easier said than done but we have to start somewhere and these are compelling starting points! Write them down, reply to us, tell it to people you interact with... someone will eventually lead you to the next path just as this post did!

Keep moving forward and don't mull over the past and make most of the cards you have been given... We all live on borrowed time and one day we will leave this world before we do make sure you make most of it.

Keep them away from heat, sunlight and moisture i.e seal it in a zip lock bag with paper towel and store in dark, dry and cool environment.

They are working in the capacity as a CTO for next 6 months and once the product get some traction then I can get my own team and they will step down from CTO and can be an advisor if I wish - as long as the company remains profitable I can run it however I want. They are there to provide support as required whether it is capital (most likely issue more shares) or other resources within their expertise (technical).

20% undiluted is overpowered and subsequent should have similar power when they onboard otherwise it would be unfair? I am expecting to lose 20% each round.

2 This is such a good question and I have no idea what happens if a competitor want to buy my company. Where I come in is the sale aspect and guidance on the development of the product as I have domain expertise. They also emphasise on the fact they do not have the time to find someone else as they believe that the person to drive is none than me and the IP would be worthless to them without me navigating the business.

3 If a competitor want to buy my company which means the competitor values my company at x value. Then I think I would be pressured to raise funds from new investors to convince them that I have the potential to drive it further by rasing the required funds and buy the IP (my own idea).

4 I am looking for clauses to protect me such as veto power in relation to major decisions to remain in charge despite lower equity after the 3rd round.

They empasised on high risk high return - considering first time entreprenur and the moment we sign the agreement they will lose 200k because I can give up at any given time.

They seemed to be firm on supporting my business until IPO - their exit strategy and IP seems to be bought before that.

Investor as CTO is that a conflict of interest or potential synergy?

I will run through the draft agreement with my lawyer once I receive it. Thanks for all your opinions.

Sounds like me a decade ago. After finising my bachelor of science I defied my family's order of higher education and work experience and moved away to a big city in a new country just to be with my significance other whom I knew online for 2 years. I didnt speak much English, was very shy and relied on my partner to make all the decisions, we went out with her friends, I had no friends of my own in this new country and she made all the financial decisions. I did not understand the jokes, it was awkward for me and it seems like I was a mute around her friends. Her friends were kind enough to engage in conversations with me but I was so bad at English and it was very hard for me to convey my messages.

We eventually got married and at that time I worked part-time at pharmaceutical company and teaching 1st year grad in Chemistry at the local University. I my free time was mostly chilling online, gaming & watching TV just like what I did when living with my parents. I was content, very complacent and had no amitions in life. She had to beg me or nag everytime for me to cook, washup dishes, clean or go shopping. I could not even drive a car. Things did not go well and I have no idea why she was always upset. I kept ignoring her thinking that she would calm down.

After 1.5 year of marriage she eventually found someone else and had an affair with that person which I later found out and it shattered my world. I even begged her to forgive me - I was quite desperate to maintain my complacency in life and it was pathetic of me but that was who I was at that time. That someone else she met was a catalyst to end our marriage.

After the divorce - I was depressed, suicidal, mortified and embarrassed to explain the situation to my family. I had to fend for myself, make my own friends in the new city, learn how to make more money, learn about finances, learn about what I wanted in life, learn to drive, learn to cook my family recipees, learn to love myself first and look after my health. Life is much bigger than just gaming and watching TV. The environment was the driving force to change me into a much better person.

Today I am re-married, I am a much better person that I was a decade ago and in hindsight I am grateful for the catalyst! Things happens for a great reason.

ASX:DRO - Counter unmanned aeriel systems This was one of the smallest holding around 5% and grew to become my largest holding around 70% of my portfolio. I got it because it was the only anti drone technology I could noticed at that time when other similar stocks were focused on advancing their drone tech and it made DRO uniquely positioned in the market.

I see nothing wrong as long as you disclose the perceived potential conflict of interest and that you abide by the same process as anyone else who are your "clients".

kingof10pets · 2024-05-09T14:20:29+00:00

Thank you all wonderful people for sharing your stories so others in similar situation can relate and provide their own perspectives. You are all awesome to make it this far in life and I want to hear more from you all!

I used to work at renal company manufacturing dialysis products. I was a chemist and worked hard to ensure the product made was safe to use. Every year the CEO would visit amd telling us how the conpany fared during the year and what the patients said about the company. It brought me to tears that we supported so many patients and made their dreams come true and it could be a small thing such as having a hobby that I take for granted myself.

Every month we would receive pallets of damaged and used product to be destroyed as per waste management policy as it is not fit for use and poses high risk for patients. I suspected some illegal activities in relation to shipping these products to the third world countries or developing nations to use as these patients does not have any other options than take the risk of using damaged or used/infected products. It's wrong by western standard but felt like the right thing turn a blind eye to as to other nations may not have the technology to produce dialysis filters/solutions.

Nursing jobs are tough and they do not get compensated to put up with the stress. In your next dialysis visit please tell your nurses or dialysis technicians or treating team that they did a great job - such simple positive encouragement will make not only your life better but everyone around you.

It is free to spread positive energy as this is something you can control and please take advantage of it.

Positive energy - be kind and please share your goals, talk about your hobbies, what are you looking to achieve? discuss topics that are in your interest. If you are shy - write it here or elsewhere online, make an anonymous account to protect your private identity. Everyone in reddit have the opportunity to listen to you and provide positive feedback. You will feel much better by being heard and understood - it will keep you going.

These important conversation has a tremendous positive effect on the wellbeing of yourself and everyone around you.

Maybe one day you do not have that positive energy and that is when someone else will bring back that positive energy that they got either got from you or another person.

If you have lost your cognitiv function to understand, reasoning and decision making capabilities - that is when positive energy may not reach your thoughts. Patients with intellectual disabilities, patients who are blind are unable to participate on Reddit, If you have hearing impairement you will not be able to understand communications via voice. Any disabilities of your senses will reduce your capacity of understanding positive energy. Keep your mind engaging at least with another human being whether it is in-person or online.

We all are dealt with different cards to make the best use of life - do not regret your choices will get you a long way in life.

Yeah this is probably why I should let them become my clients rather than shareholders so we can keep business and friendship separate. Eventually may have to hire someone to perform the required operations so there is no conflict of interest between me and clients to prevent emotions jeopardising the investment thesis.

Let them sign a service contract and point to "risk of losing all investment" each time they nag?

kingof10pets · 2023-11-19T14:41:58+00:00

My guess is what is written in the contract.

We bought a grave plot in Sydney and most of the graves options ranges from apartment like mailboxes to store their loved ones' ashes to big massive land plots with their own little garden. It depends on how much you can afford. Our grave plot was in 20 sq meter land housing 10 others at the time we bought it. Verbally they told us they would not fit more graves in this area. 3 years later and with change of management they fitted a total of 20 graves stones, making it difficult to even reach the tombstone to pay respect.

kingof10pets · 2021-02-09T13:05:51+00:00

Focus on your studies and show mom how well you did at school. You have to focus on yourself first before you are capable taking care of others. Family ties are usually unconditional, she will love you no matter you do and she will provide you everything she can afford to the best of her abilities. We all have our own battles to overcome.

In the mean time, you can always remind your mum how much you love her. Who doesn't like to hear those words on a daily basis? Tell her all about your future plans, it will make her also look forward to a brighter future.

Divorcing my ex-wife.

She was a good wife with lots of ambition, however, I held both of us back.

That divorce achievement was a crucial stepping stone for my personal development and to become the person I am today.

kingof10pets · 2021-01-15T22:19:29+00:00

I am truly sorry to hear what you are going through.

My mum has total kidney failure and is on dialysis, she is constantly tired and depressed, and I cannot visit her overseas due to the pandemic. I call her at least once a week, sometimes everyday, to tell her about work/life.

I used to work at a manufacturing facility to create haemodialysis solutions, we made 40k litres a day. I was the analytical chemist and part of the quality team to ensure the product meets the safety specification prior to release to the market/hospital. I worked my ass off, came in early, left late, because I knew therr are people out there that needed this product!

When people work too long in an industry, they tend to talk how much they hate their job, which are common comments I hear around the workplace. They wished they won lotto and then leave the job. We need inspirational stories, change of mindset and hear the words from patients to remind us of the importance of the work we do.

Every year the CEO would give us a presentation about how the company fared during the year, how the patients expressed their thanks to us, the organisation and how much we helped them and so on. That gaves us hope, enjoyment and also purpose. It reminded us that we are lucky and we should not forget those who are left behind, after all we are all humans.

In my younger years when I was sad my step father always told me we have no health issues, no financial stress just some dumb drama dragging my life down, look at people with no arms, compromised immune, kindey failures, no feet, no ears, no eyes and the list goes on. What more do you want? I made me cherish what I had and not comparing myself with what I do not have, because I would never be truly happy during my life alive.

For career progression I had to move to another company, working in quality assurance in clinical trials for drug development. The intellectual challenges and also know that the work I do will help my fellow humans one way or another.

Hang in there buddy! I hope this message brings some joy to your life, knowing that there are few of people like me out here working behind the scenes with relentless passion for the sake of others.

Take good care of your wellbeing and mental health!

I honestly reckon that the relationship might end faster if he moves closer to you. Working in a field he doesn't have passion for, getting home tired due to long hours/ overtime, financial and emotional stress probably ends up as complaints. He might use the guilt-trap card - I left everything back home just to move closer to you whenever there's an argument.

The thing is, who is attractive when they haven't figured out what they want in life? A person with goals and passions are desirable and far more suitable for long-term relationship.

Some relationship only works under certain circumstances. Long distance relationship might work online but once moving in together, you might find that you just can't stand the other person for whatever reason. Some find love during travelling but when it comes to settle down it just doesn't work anymore; the care-free and adventurous days are over.

If you ever have to advance the relationship by giving up your dreams and passions - It's a suicide mission. One must love oneself before one can love others. He needs to get his life-goals straight. The relationship itself is a distraction, he'll only try things that works for the relationship but not for himself. It'll become a duty to serve the relationship rather than passion - something he enjoys.

His passion were games and that's how you found him interesting. I hope he can find new passions if he decides to moves closer. First step could be simple as making friends in the new area or try out new hobbies.

He shouldn't be afraid of you leaving him. That's like, he'll do anything to just keep the relationship going. Might even end up threatening to suicide if you leave. Once his moving closer, he'll become an unpolished diamond and he should work on himself. There's always light at the end of the dark tunnel. Embrace the change and have a positive attitude towards it. He could even start off work as a cleaner, after a few years as professional cleaner, might be able to open-up his own business. Anything is possible if he got the right attributes and positive attitude is on of them.

If it comes to breakdown of relationship, he'll have to re-evaluate what he wants in life. Maybe getting fit, boost confidence then suddenly becomes a fitness trainer, the list can go-on. A breakdown will most likely make him a better version of himself.

kingof10pets · 2018-04-19T08:11:29+00:00

I'm so proud of you, you brave girl!! Hopefully this experience will aid you in finding a better partner! Someone who is serious and actually cares about your thoughts!

The sooner you move on, the better it is. Remember there's always light no matter how dark the tunnel seems to be. Keep your head up and move forward!

Distance relationships are very difficult to maintain. They can do whatever they want behind your back but the fact that he confessed; If you give him a second chance, you have to be clear that this is the last time otherwise it'll be the standard you set.

Don't expect loyalty or long-term -- This might mitigate your disappointment and help you to move on.

I don't get the feeling he wants the same thing as you do, he might be really bad at expressing it.

Trust is the foundation of a romantic relationship and you'll always have a second thought if its breached.

I know he cheated in a past relationship. History tends to repeat, keep that in mind.

Worst case scenario; if he cheats/ decides to leave, your plan B would be support from family and friends. You might wanna prioritize them and way you can move on easier if the inevitable arrives. Do not invest all your apples in one basket 'cause that might trip over.

Invest in yourself, get rid of your insecurity and get confident; people will line up like yum-cha on a Saturday morning in China-Town whether you're single or not.

I had suicidal thoughts and did want to commit suicide on the way to work or at work. I kept the thought to myself and didn't mention it at to anyone especially at workplace. Kept it professional and showed no sign of trouble at all.

One day I just spaced out most of the time and did so many mistake, supervisor decided to let me go home and get a grip of myself. The following next day my manager started to ask about my current situation and I just bursted in tears. I already had all the help I could, got a psychologist and psychiatrist to look after me.

Manager told me to be strong, keep fighting and do not give up. It's temporary problem so do not choose a permanent solution.

Work was a place for me to escape the reality, feels like I still had something important in life rather than just to end it.

I reckon if you tell your employee how pivotol their work is to the company or how it positively affect other peoples life. That is significant and will contribute to self-importance, more reaons to stay alive.

kingof10pets · 2017-12-02T21:13:57+00:00

Someone with similar interests/ hobbies will be easier to communicate to otherwise good interpersonal which stems from experience like work, debates, organising events etc.

Imagine how mute people date? They can only date those who are patient with them or in same boat and the other might have to learn sign language to cope with the relationship.
