𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘀 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀: 𝗡𝗙𝟭 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆…𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲 Living with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 has taught me a lot about resilience. There are times when NF1 limits my performance, my energy, or my ability to do certain things. I know I face additional challenges, even when others remind me of them. But I’ve never wanted to use NF1 as an excuse. If anything, I’m harder on myself because of it. I rarely feel proud of myself because I always feel like I could be doing more, pushing more, achieving more. That mindset isn’t always easy and maybe sometimes I should give myself more credit. But I never want NF1 to define what I can or can’t become. Awareness isn’t just about recognising the condition. It’s also about recognising the strength, determination and mindset of the people living with it every day. To anyone else living with NF1: your challenges are real, but so is your strength. You are allowed to push forward without minimising what you go through and you are just as capable of achieving more than you think possible. #nf1 #nfwarrior #nfawareness #gymgirlwithnf1 #fyp
