It would be a dream come true if some day I could go abroad (I’m from Brazil 🇧🇷) for a research exchange program… I like dreaming, sometimes dreams do become real. Who knows, right? Anyways, Rare Disease Day is approaching and I just want to share how grateful I am for my journey so far. 🙏🏼👩🏻‍⚕️🦓

And every day I’m sure, if my body allows me to, I want to work on rare diseases research, specially autoinflammatory diseases and their complex genetics and immune regulation. My favourites subjects on my pre clinicals were Genetics and Immunology. 🤓 Yep, I’m a nerd. Guilty as charged. ✋🏼😅

I don’t know if anybody will read this but I just wanted to share I’m starting my 4th semester on med school. Being a person with multiple rare diseases myself, I’m amazed every time I realise how surreal this is. 🥹 The patient in me is learning about her own body and I’m so grateful for that! 🥹🥹

Estou ansiosa pra ver os vídeos do pessoal passando e me emocionar junto. Porque essa alegria de conquistar um sonho é universal e inesquecível. 🥹

Temporada de SiSU… Há 2 anos atrás era minha vez. No meu ano foram 8 dias de sisu, um caos na terra. Mas pense no alívio quando vi que tinha sido aprovada em Medicina. Fiz a prova em meio a uma crise inflamatória, à base de remédio mais forte que morfina. Às vezes nem eu acredito que deu certo! 🥹
