LADIES. Meet Aisha Bahati the blind Hair dresser



God created every human being with a purpose and should anything happen to you and change how you were created by God it should not give you a reason to condemn him but to accept how you are and move on with life with how you are.

Meet Aisha Bahati a Ugandan lady who lost her sight when she was seven years old and did not let that be a weakness in her life. Bahati is a hairdresser in Uganda and she operates her own saloon with her condition. It is hard for many to Understand how she determines the best hair style for you but customers in her saloon highly recommend her quality services and always return with friends.
Bahati lost her eye sight when she was seven years after she consumed expired medicine from a local clinic in Jinja,Uganda. Bahati had Just developed a fever before she sort medical attention from the clinic.
She later begun developing body complications like small swellings and she was admitted in the same health care for a period of two months before being discharged.
Life went on normally until one month later, my eyes started itching uncontrollably. The pain was too much as well,” she says, adding, “And during the days that followed, I slowly began to lose my sight.”
Despite the fact that several tests were done, the doctors there failed to diagnose the problem with her eyes.

“At this point in time, I think I had already gone blind,” she says.

For a moment, Bahati pauses and takes in a deep breath. It is as if she is letting the bad memory sink in. On what she remembers feeling right after the discovery that she would not be able to see again, the 20-year-old says she was too young to understand anything at the time.
I was only a child and it was very difficult for me to know that I had lost my vision. I went on with life normally as if nothing had happened,” she says.
In order to ensure that she received the best care and attention, Fatuma Kikuno, her mother, decided to take her out of school. Bahati was in Primary Three at Top Care Primary School located in Jinja. Kikuno decided to enrol her for homeschooling instead.
The teaching was done by different family members including Bahati’s mother, siblings and friends. They themselves taught her how to read and write. Bahati who is the last born has nine other siblings. Her father is Asad Kikuno.
I guess the reason why I learnt how to do most of the things on my own was because of their supportive and caring nature. They often reminded me that there was nothing impossible that I could not do on this earth,” she says with a smile.
