Dianna Cowern Instagram – Hello everyone, this video was taken a couple weeks ago of Dianna cutting her hair again. Dianna still hasn’t gotten out of bed, and it’s been long enough that her hair has grown out again. Health Update — For the past 2 or more months, Dianna has been dealing with a very heavy crash from her chronic fatigue sydrome. As we know, these crashes keep her physically restricted, but equally as painful is the brain fog she experiences from the mental fatigue. From what we understand working with her doctor, these crashes are to be expected, and expected to be long. So though it’s hard for all of us to stay positive when it seems like she’s barely getting better, it’s important to remember that long set backs are a part of the slow recovery. I(Levi, Dianna’s editor) make Dianna’s day meals Monday through Friday and I have not seen her in months. I give the meals to Kyle and he takes them to her as she is too weak to respond to anyone. I tell this story just to illustrate what it’s like here and how it’s still a lot of Dianna laying down trying to stay quiet. Sometimes I leave and come back and it’s surreal to see that she’s still like this in the thick of the disease. The GOOD news is for about the past week or 2, Kyle has been telling me she’s feeling slightly better. They believe she is slowly moving out of this crash, and they are both feeling more hopeful. Dianna’s mom visits as often as she can. And we often express to each other our gratitude for all the online support. These month long “crashes” or “setbacks” are a reminder of how slow and long this process is and how none of it would be doable without the help. Dianna is very saddened to imagine she may be like this for 5, or 10, or more years. But we all feel like at least she can have something of a shot at a normal life thanks to all the help received. Thank you so much everyone. Stay tuned for another bigger health update on the Youtube channel soon.
