21.01.2022 We present our 2019 segment of LOCAL HERO | DAHLIA MIKHA SAFAR | In association with HUME CITY COUNCIL At just 19 years of age, Dahlia stopped walking and talking. She was diagnosed with Wilson’s diseasea rare genetic disorder. Although doctors told her that she’d never walk or talk again, her determination and courage are the reasons for her triumphant improvement. Today, she no longer uses her wheelchair, she has successfully completed three university degrees and even wrote and self-published a book. Although her speech still hasn’t returned, her smile and sense of humour usually say it all. Hume City Council Puneet Gulati Bobby Beebob Sandeep Raj Films Glamourlicious by Sam
