A Lesson in Slowing Down
Hiro Nishimura · Posted on February 19, 2016July 22, 2020

I am a huge proponent of the importance of “Listening to Your Body.” If it’s tired, I’ve told countless frustrated survivors, it’s not being “lazy” to stop and rest. It’s a necessity. This goes for neuro-, physical- or mental- fatigue. Since I began my recovery process from my craniotomy four years ago, I have become keenly aware …

What is Executive Function Disorder?
Hiro Nishimura · Posted on February 8, 2016July 22, 2020

After my last post, I was contacted by a few people who were interested in learning about Executive Function Disorder.

Hiro Nishimura · Posted on December 21, 2015July 22, 2020

One of the biggest improvements to my life is the new found outlook to life, which, until then, had been bound …

Brain Surgery Recovery
Hiro Nishimura · Posted on December 6, 2015July 23, 2020

On December 7th, I celebrate entering 5th year of recovery after my craniotomy to remove 3 Arteriovenous Malformations from my brain. My surgery was on December 7th, 2011. I was 22 years old, a college senior, and had closed my fall semester early after my 3rd and final Grand Mal Seizure. The fact that it has …

Living Small
Hiro Nishimura · Posted on November 27, 2015July 22, 2020

Living in New York City makes one contemplate many things. The people, the consumerism, the money, the culture, the diversity. But closest to the self, it makes one contemplate SPACE and way of daily living. The space you are allowed to take up in this city is merely a fraction of that allowed elsewhere. While I have …
