    🔴 • Why you should make us... 🔴
    I said a lot more than just my name. Plus there's a great photo of me as a teenager so you should really go watch it.

      That's a weird combo of US/UK spelling!
      TumorHumor or TumourHumour I could understand, but TumorHumour?
      I think you need to take a break from the intarwebz Simon, it's mangling your native (correct) spelling ;-)
      To totally add to the confusion, being a Swede, Simone would have a Swedish Tumour, which is spelt Tumör. So TumörHumör (No, not making this up!).
      That's some pretty good multilinqual word play she's got going on there!
      Get well soon Simone, the world needs more terrible puns!

      when she said that i was like... that's what i do... i always sleep more than 8h and feel good, 12h is not uncommon but over that is only happening when i'm really tired, i think my record is like 27h or so? i slept 12h and found myself still very tired so i just doubled it, after which it felt weird but good... funnily i can't say that to anyone, as they would complain about me "oversleeping" if it's over 8h... unsure, if never feel bad then why... i also seem to deal with stress such way... i don't know, just nice alone time and such... and i need lot of time for myself... addionally, people should not try to disturb my sleep unless they want to know what this quiet boy can turn into

    When they put you under anesthesia, you should sing "Daisy" in voices that keep changing pitch. Then do it again when they wake you up.
    The young doctors will just think you're weird, but the older ones will laugh themselves into comas. Also, just before you go into surgery, say "What do you think you're doing, Dave?" in a strangely flat voice.
    Or maybe not.
    Best wishes and prayers for a successful surgery that leaves all your important parts intact.

Honestly made my day, and how awesome you have Adam Savage supporting you! All the best with the coming months, sending you good vibes and strength.

    I'm in love with your googley eye shirt, but I am also crying after watching your TED talk. ♥ Perfect advice for a perfectionist; I hope your surgery goes well, and will be praying with you on the 30th!

    Yeah, yeah. The TED talk was awesome and amazing and all that and you did a really great job not having shaky hands during it and not forgetting the words and being an inspiration and standing ovation and blah blah blah but can we talk about THAT GOOGLEY EYE SHIRT?!!!! Thoroughly amazing. Just like you!

    Simone, your Ted talk was excellent! Especially enjoyed the Googlie Eye shirt.
    Be strong, be yourself on surgery day. Fall asleep thinking of the most awesome happy place.
    The great meds will keep you in your happy place until it's over.
    My son had a brain tumor which was considered inoperable but a fine surgeon disagreed
    and so glad he was a champion much like yourself. The world is a better place with people
    like you! Safe journey....until you're back on TH-cam!

      Are you trying to say she pronounced Simone's name incorrectly? It is not pronounced how it looks. Simone has talked about that in her videos. They got it right, or close to it.

      Mycel the ted announcer clearly said “geerts”. Her name is pronounced “yetch”.

    I wish I could give this more than just one thumbs up. And as someone else mentioned, someone needs to make googley eye badges so we can all buy one and then meet random Simone supporters.
    Sending as much scientific positive thoughts or vibrations or wishes or random acts of kindness your way Simone.

  • @flajeepgirl6
    @flajeepgirl6 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The TED Talk was great and very inspiring. I think a lot of us never realize that fear is one of the biggest influences in our lives, causing us to change direction and often not in the right direction...well said Simone....thanks and Best Wishes!!!

    Prayers, good thoughts, and all the best to you. I started watching TH-cam videos when I was recovering from a motorcycle accident. Engineering note, never whether on purpose, or accident shift from third to first, and let the clutch out at 40 mph. Bad things happen. Anyway I’ve come to love, and appreciate the talent, and energy many put into their videos. You’ve now become my favorite. It is your genuineness, and honesty that make you the star you are. I’ll be following your progress.
