Yakob S Ahmed: The Unseen Physical and Emotional Burden Women Carry

Yakob S Ahmed, Country Director at ReachAnother Foundation, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Women spend a lifetime negotiating or batteling biology, often silently, while the world expects them to perform as if nothing is happening.

When my little sister lived with me, I saw it up close the cramps, the mood changes, the anxiety, the quiet strength it took just to get through those days.

It gave me deep respect for what women carry and how rarely we acknowledge it.

Empathy isn’t optional.

Abdu Adem Yesufe, Program Director of Adult Hematology and Medical Oncology Fellowship at St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College (SPHMMC), shared this post, adding:

“My utmost respect for our mothers, sisters and wives.

Thank you, Yakob S Ahmed, for bringing this important issue to our attention in a compelling manner!”
