Isolated and Bullied throughout Her Life

Karine de Souza's life was anything but easy. From the tender age of three, she was diagnosed with Xeroderma Pigmentosum, a rare skin condition that made her vulnerable to skin cancer.

To protect herself, she had to cover herself with SPF100 sunscreen every two hours, even indoors with closed curtains. This meant that Karine was often isolated from the outside world. She was bullied and ridiculed by people who didn't understand her condition, and she felt like an outcast in her society.

The Life-Changing Friend Request

For a long time, Karine believed she would never find love. She had been ostracized her entire life and thought that no one could accept her for who she was. But fate had other plans for her. One day, she met Edmilson through social media, and everything changed. The woman revealed:

"He sent me a friend request, and I accepted, but I didn't realize I was about to meet the great [love] of ​​my life."

But despite the criticism and the hurtful comments, Edmilson stood by Karine's side. He knew what he felt in his heart. He knew Karine was the one for him and would do whatever it took to prove it.
