ROY KEANE’S daughter admits she “thought life was over” after being diagnosed with the same incurable disease as pop star Selena Gomez.
Caragh Keane, 29, is the second-oldest child of the Manchester United legend, who shares five kids with wife Theresa Doyle.
Caragh Keane 'thought life was over' after being diagnosed with lupus
But four years ago, Caragh’s life was turned upside down after being diagnosed with lupus.
The chronic autoimmune condition results in severe inflammation, with singer Gomez needing a career break and kidney transplant due to its symptoms.
Caragh developed extreme joint pain, blisters and alopecia, forcing her to turn down a “dream teaching position.”
And things became even bleaker when she was told she may need to undergo chemotherapy treatment to ease her symptoms.
Caragh told PA Real Life: “Life was over. (There was) no way out. I wouldn’t be here without them (mum and dad).
“When I was diagnosed, I mourned the person I had been and the person I felt I should have been.
“The fatigue was unbearable but you just power on. I was essentially bed-bound for a month-and-a-half.
“I had been experiencing fatigue and memory loss for about six months. Since your immune system is essentially attacking itself, you feel like you only have yourself to blame.”
Caragh took it upon herself to research the links between gut health and inflammation.
And after switching to a diet of unprocessed, healthy foods, Caragh’s lupus symptoms incredibly vanished.
She has now created a health company, called Superkeen, which sells organic food to help others suffering with lupus, gut issues and other autoimmune problems.
Caragh added: “When I look at it now, it’s obviously led me on this journey and I’m grateful for the food moments.
“With the main overarching aim of being inclusive and knowing you’re not alone, I hope I can help people.
“Everyone’s on their own journey but we’re all in it together.
“I started eating real whole foods so I focused on good meat, fish and healthy fats, veggies and fruits, gut-healing foods like bone broth and fermented food, and supplements.
“I started noticing my hair growing back and all my blisters started fading on my face.
“My joint pain subsided after a few months and then I remember think, ‘There are lots of people out there suffering that don’t know the healing properties of food’.”
