Despite this, she emphasized her commitment to maintaining a positive outlook. Khan wrote, “Everything hurts, but we should keep smiling. So many problems, can’t even eat properly without feeling pain. But that’s no reason to be negative. I choose to smile and encourage myself. I tell myself that all this will be over and we will get through this (InshaAllah)—one smile at a time.”
