📖 Still I Rise: A Journey Through Lupus, Loss, and Light
For nearly two decades, I’ve been walking a journey that has tested my faith, my body, and my heart. In 2007, I was diagnosed with lupus, a chronic illness that forever changed the way I live. I faced pain, fatigue, and fear—but I learned to push forward for my children and grandchildren.
Then, on July 4, 2022, my life was shaken again when I lost my beloved son, Naeem. What should have been a day of celebration became the day my world shattered. The grief was unbearable, and there were moments when I thought I wouldn’t survive it.
But through it all, God whispered, “Still, you will rise.”
This book is my testimony—of fighting lupus, grieving loss, and finding light again. It’s not just about my story—it’s about every person who has ever faced pain so deep they thought they couldn’t go on. It’s a reminder that even in the darkest valleys, we are not alone, and hope is still possible.
