About: 'Model Aisha' & 'A Martyrdom of Life'
At the age of eight years she was raped by one of her mother's steadily changing friends.Therafter the public welfare put her to a boarding school.
Her mother commited suicide at age of 30. Aisha and her sister were passed on to foster parents on a farm where both were treated like 'farm helpers' , not like beloved kids.
In her twenties she was married to a very violent guy who was drunken 4 days in a week and did spent most of his time in prison. He bashed her in a regular way, broke her nose, throw her out of the window...
She decided to leave this guy together with their 5 years old son. He got mad, splashed a bottle of fuel at her and lighted her up.
Aisha incurred third and four degree-burns on her upper body. Her husband was put into prison and killed himself ( ... or was killed by others).
After years of hospitalization Aisha decided to start modelling as a semi-professional-model. In her day job she works as a nurse, helping others.
Up to her 40's there have been only very few sunny days in her life. In collaboration with Austria's leading female magazine 'Woman' Aisha did write her auto-biography titled
Willkommen in der Hölle (Welcome to Hell).
