| Introduction | I'm Njahîra Faith, a Kenyan with Muscular dystrophy(MD) who lives daily life with experiences of the condition. In this blog, I express my thoughts and opinions about MD with the hope that other Kenyans with MD do not have the same difficult experiences I had growing up in a society ridden with superstition and great ignorance about MD and other genetic conditions. That they may thrive in their existence. My feminist side and disability advocacy is bound to show up in my posts. My views on disability also continue to grow over the years. |
