My name is Cole. I'm an addict, or at least I was one labeled as one. I am now grateful to say I am a recovering addict. I have a rare brain disease called Chiari Malformation, which is incurable but manageable. After years of pretending to accept my diagnosis, I am proud to say I not only accept it but am grateful for it. Being ill has changed my perspective on life and the importance of it. I wanted to share these things because they may make up a part of me, even though I'm not defined by them. I also will not be only speaking on those topics. I plan on letting it all out from fear, anger, and resentment to acceptance, self love, and allowing anything, hell everything to happen and find the beauty... Even when it looks as if there is none. I made this blog because I want to talk about life on life's terms; acceptance, pain, and rising above when life pushes you. I plan on talking about a variety of issues that I moved past and currently overcame. This blog will be REAL, RAW, AND, UNFILTERED. All I write will be my truth. Cold and hard yet necessary. Welcome to COLESHARDTRUTH.

Aliyah is a cage fighter. Subverting the stereotyped idea of a Mixed Martial Artist, she works as a software engineer in London. Her life in a male dominated environment is fraught with challenges caused by her race and gender and aggravated by her childhood trauma and consequent aloofness. This is embodied in the character Jeremy, a co-worker who relentlessly taunts and bullies Aliyah. The story begins one month prior to her debut cage fight. Aliyah works hard to balance her demanding job and training regime. At the night of the fight, the three-round tournament sees Aliyah suffering multiple head-concussions, resulting in an accident. The second part, 'Fighter', portrays Aliyah's struggle with the symptoms of her brain injury and complications of her diagnosis. Following hospital discharge, her brain function declines, jeopardising her work and comfortable urban life. Ultimately, the injury leads to a violent episode and she loses everything important to her. The story examines prejudices about mental disorders and challenges the way invisible illness is often dismissed as merely psychosomatic.
