⚡Hefka⚡I am an anomaly. Behind my smile and my chiptune, lies the story of a autist who is both lucid and immature. My backstory was all about blood and losses, so what? My backstory is made with tears, perseverance and no love, so what? Yeah I still have venom raging in my veins, yeah I still have wrath in my blood, but my inner electricity brings sparks of hope without even trying. So blame what you want, say what you will, even without my nekomimi I am leaving my mark. Hefka passes and disappears and reappears. Everyone wants to accomplish something, I screw your codes from the system and inject my own rules. Tomorrow you'll sell your soul to get nothing. The day after tomorrow I'll still be standing.

olena<p>Seeing a lot of posts lately talking about parents not telling their kids about their <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autism</span></a> or <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADHD</span></a> diagnosis. The thing is, it’s not only with <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/neurodivergency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodivergency</span></a>, the trend is much wider. </p><p>I went to rheumatologist recently because of joint pain. Mentioned that to my mom, and she’s like “Oh, you’ve been a frequent visitor of a rheumatologist when you were kid because of heart murmurs and some other things, until we moved and changed the clinic”. <br>I’m over forty. I have an adult kid who suffers joint pain. I have been diagnosed with valve insufficiency just a few years ago, and knowing that I had heart murmurs could have helped with my diagnosis.<br>Why am I only being told about these things now? How much more medical information I don’t have about myself? </p><p>I know, many people are opposed to the idea of some universal health info system because of privacy issues and the fear that the state or corporations being able to use it against them. But I feel that it’s incorrect approach. <br>We need to develop mechanisms against misuse of our data, but there should be some way for us ourselves to be able to access the info about our health. <br>It’s so fucked up that there are numerous people around us - parents, school personal, doctors, nurses - who have the info about us, about our mental and physical health, that we have no idea about, and that is left for their(!) judgment what to give us and what not. <br>It strikes me as absolutely absurd when I see doctors or some “patient’s rights groups” saying sone info should not be shown to people because they can “misinterpret” it. WTH? As long as I am legally considered mentally capable to take my own decisions: to vote, to manage my property, etc - I should be entitled to any info on me, and should be given indisputable right to make my own decisions based on that. No one should take decisions concerning my health on my regard. <br>I don’t understand why people in general are ok with that. It scares me actually to see how widely acceptable that is in the society.</p>
