Dianna Cowern Instagram – (By Kyle) today we celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary. A year ago, we never imagined our lives would be like this. Everything changed so quickly and so drastically. A year ago we were in Kauai getting married, and a few weeks later back home running a half marathon together. Now, Dianna hasn’t been able to get out of bed for months. Something else that has changed over the last year is our love for each other. But for the better. We’ve grown so much closer in our first year of marriage. We’ve learned how to care for each other in extreme and depressing circumstances. We make each other laugh and smile for just a moment everyday, no matter the pain and no matter how bleak it seems at times. Dianna is such a warrior, and we’re working each day towards recovery – whatever that ends up looking like for us. Luckily, today was a “good” day and we got to share some smiles and hugs, and she even was able to read the short card I got her without crying too much 🥲. I hope we have more good days coming, and that we get to celebrate the “in health” part of our marriage soon. But either way, we’re lucky to be together. Finally, we couldn’t be where we are mentally, physically or emotionally without the incredible support we’ve gotten from our friends, family, and from so many people who simply want Dianna to get better. It’s truly amazing, and we thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. #longcovid #mecfs
