My name is Mika Jayne Covington. I am 28 years old and I live with cystinosis. I was diagnosed with cystinosis at around 10 months old. Cystinosis is a very rare metabolic disease that causes cells to crystallize and die. Cystinosis slowly destroys the organs in the body including the kidneys, eyes, liver, lungs, muscles, and brain. Additionally, I am a college student at the University of Iowa studying psychology and German. I am sexual assault survivor, a human rights activist, a feminist, a student, a fighter, and a socialist. #SexualAssaultSurvivor #HumanRights #Feminist #Socialist #LGBTQIA+
