The Shared Pain Project! @geek_gifted #chronicpain

[The Gifted Geek - Sebastian Gordon @geek_gifted]

I spent 2 years battling Nutcracker Syndrome & had an 11-hour kidney surgery

The worst part wasn’t the pain, it was feeling alone

That’s why I started The Shared Pain Project: to connect, inspire & make sure no one fights alone

Throwback to February 11th 2025, walking to the hospital unit for pre-admission before my kidney autotransplant on February 12th. I was nervous, but also relieved that the day had finally come!!

My left kidney was transplanted into my lower abdomen because my veins were being crushed, it’s called #NutcrackerSyndrome.
This is my post-surgery scar
3 incisions, 1 drain.

Watching my son go from exploring the da Vinci robot to having surgery with it is surreal.

One year. One journey. Future doctor, unstoppable spirit!

Feb 8, 2024: I tried the da Vinci surgical robot
Feb 12, 2025: I was on the OR table, my kidney removed with that same robot and autotransplanted to stop the pain #NutcrackerSyndrome

Observer to patient in a year!

As a father, there are no words for the relief of seeing your child pain-free after years of suffering. Thank you, Dr. Lorenzo and @SickKids for giving Sebastian his life back. #NutcrackerSyndrome #IB #MedicalMiracle

[The Gifted Geek - Sebastian Gordon @geek_gifted]

This is Dr. Armando Lorenzo, the incredible surgeon who performed my kidney autotransplant at SickKids to stop the unbearable pain from #NutcrackerSyndrome.
No more pain!!

Love seeing the #TCDSB promote mental & physical health!

But let's ensure everyone feels included in this message!

Let’s add diverse representations, including those with disabilities, to show ALL students can enjoy the benefits of nature.

"worst recession since the Great Depression" 🤣

If you actually believe that, you need to review if who you're voting for works for you. Because I don't personally know who anyone who isn't having a better than forecasted year, because of all of the corporate handouts.

Q2 employment income declined ~$21B in Canada from Q1. Govt transfers to households increased $54B, plus another $18B reduction in household transfers to govt. So a $72B swing in net transfers to fill a $21B hole in lost income. No wonder retail sales are back at records
