A woman whose face and body was left scarred for life by angry sores, caused by Lupus, has become a diversity model. For ten years, Mikki Leigh, 34, suffered from the auto-immune disease, which sees the immune system attack the tissues and organs in the body. Cruelly, she was labelled an ‘acid attack and dog mauling victim’ by strangers. But for the last two years, Mikki has been in remission from the disease thanks to a 'wonder drug'. The trainee accountant, from Sheffield, has since appeared in modelling campaigns and now wants to raise awareness of the illness for other sufferers.
