THE 12TH ANNUAL FLIGHT OF THE BUTTERFLIES
Flight of the Butterflies is a lupus awareness campaign sharing stories of the brave lupus warriors. Many don’t understand lupus until they hear the walk of a warrior. Flight of the Butterflies is dedicated to sharing those Butterfly of Hope stories in May for lupus awareness month.
Butterfly Flight Hadija Kaherewa
I was diagnosed almost 5 years, just four months after the birth of my first child. I continue to suffer with feet pain, right rib pain, and I have become deaf.
On my lupus journey I learned that lupus can make you sensitive to certain light. That exposure to light can cause rashes, fever, fatigue, or joint pain.
I advise new lupus patients to be kind to themselves and to be mindful of their body’s limitations.
My strength comes from regular physical activity and taking steroids for my lupus symptoms.
The hardest part of lupus for me is the sleep disturbances that makes it longer to fall asleep and my hearing loss, because it is so hard to communicate with others.
Lupus In Color is excited to present Hadija Kaherewa’s story to the world. As a Lupus Warrior she is actively promoting lupus awareness and wearing the armor of strength in doing so.
