Following an iatrogenic brain injury in 2017, he experiences difficulties with short‑term memory and complex executive functioning, alongside a compulsion to walk and occasional phonic tics. The severity of these symptoms fluctuates and is closely linked to stress levels and diet (he avoids sugar and caffeine). Importantly, his core cognition, personality, and sense of humour remain very much present beneath these challenges.
He is able to follow instructions, engage in card and video games, and participate in structured activities, though he may find extended or abstract conversations challenging. His interests include music (particularly rap — he wrote his own lyrics prior to his injury), dogs (he has grown up around German Shepherds), and activities such as snooker, archery, quad biking, and music festivals, although he rarely has the opportunity to enjoy these at present.
Once highly sociable, he continues to thrive in the company of others and gains confidence and motivation through positive social interaction with people close to his own age.
