Life
Yuldasheva was married and she worked in the fields in the Denov district of Uzbekistan. She was handfeeding a combine harvester when her long clothes became entangled in the machinery. As a result, she had both her legs amputated and she was immobile as her family could not afford a wheelchair. She told her husband that he should marry again but he ignored her.
She created a sewing business which, in time, employed forty other women.
Yuldasheva received visits from people who offered their sympathies and they would take their selfies with her. The visitors brought a chair and a make-up box and they were used in the photos. It was a week later that she learned that the chair actually belonged to a local elderly woman. She returned the chair and the make-up box was retrieved. She was resigned to the exploitation but she noted her own disappointment after she had been locally and temporarly mobile. Even with a chair she cannot travel far as her family live over a mile from a road and that path needs to be covered before the start of any car journey. The dresses that she makes are delivered by her son on his bicycle.
In 2024 she was recognised as one of the BBC's 100 inspiring women for 2024. As a result she also received a national "Mardlik" courage award in December 2024, in a meeting chaired by the President. The President's daughter and assistant Saida Mirziyoyeva was tasked with making a film about Yuldosheva, and at least four more, in 2025. The President announced wide ranging targets to improve the support for those with disabilities.
