Saira Sufi joins us today to share the story of her son, Hadi, and how he remains her guide today. She has weathered innumerable losses in the last couple of years, and still holds her chin up as she advocates for her son’s disease and mom resilience. This may be a triggering episode for anyone who has suffered immense loss and grief, so maybe listen in a group so you can support each other through this episode.

Also, let’s never forget to support medical research and to join minority blood registries in case we can ever help another family avoid illness and loss. This episode is for every mom, sibling, and family who’s ever experienced the loss of a child, and we pray for their continued healing and reward with Allah SWT. Ameen.
