Sadly, I'm struggling to shake off this strange skin allergy.
I've had food allergy tests and fortunately I'm not allergic to the main food groups but am still tolerating, hives, burning and itching on my hands and palms.
I managed to jump in a taxi last week and attend a social entrepreneur showcase at Middlesex University Dubai.
I've attached a photo with Senior lecturer Shanthi Raman.
The green and white traditional Pakistani party suit I'm wearing is not ethical but was purchased as a birthday present by my dear friends Sunita and Faiza.
The green scarf I've draped around me was a fairtrade gift from my friend Joanna who was visiting from Poland.

میری بہن نے مجھے عظیم دماغی صحت کے دن کے بارے میں ویبینرز کے لنکس بھیجے جو 26 جنوری 2024 کو ہوا تھا۔ میں ان تمام مہمان مقررین اور ٹرینرز کا مشکور ہوں جنہوں نے اپنے مصروف شیڈول میں سے وقت نکال کر خودکشی کی روک تھام، سوگ اور اپنی شاعری لکھنے کے بارے میں بات کی۔
Happy New Year to all my fair trade friends and family around the world.
