She’s spent most of her life being teased because of a rare skin condition that left her body covered in moles. Now, Yulianna Yussef has defied her bullies posting body confident posts on Instagram.
The 26-year-old woman was badly bullied throughout her childhood and was even given the nickname ‘Dalmatian’.
Opening up about her condition, The Daily Mail reports doctors gave her hours to live.
‘Doctors were shocked because they had never seen such an extreme case,’ she added.
‘There were lots of moles all over my small body and they said to my family that they didn’t know how much time I would stay alive.’
However, the hours turn into ‘days which then turned into weeks, then months and then years and I’m still here’.
Yussef says she is sharing images to help other people with the same condition.
‘I’m trying to show people with CMN that we can live normal life with this and it’s no need to hide from other people.
‘I hope that one day [the] world starts to know about our features. I was born different, you [were] born different ,we [were] all born different.’
