Fighting an invisible enemy
--:--
Imagine living with a disease that means you cannot eat most foods, keeps you out of school, blemishes your skin and forces you to move cities - but no one has a cure, and some doctors don't even believe you. This is the story of Princess Mahogo, a young South African woman who battled celiac disease for 19 years before she was diagnosed. She tells Don't Hold Back host Nozibele Qamngana-Mayaba how she survived, and why she doesn't want other young South Africans to suffer a similar fate.
