In truth, the stunning model had to briefly withdraw from the walkways because she wanted to reveal some information regarding her health this weekend. She has now begun a severe therapy for this ailment. 


Something about which she spoke in a lengthy message in which she elaborated on how she had dealt with her illness and the emotions she had experienced while fighting it, being incredibly proud of the fortitude she had displayed and the integrity with which he had accepted his reality.


Through her Instagram account, Bella shared a photo album in which she chronicled some of the moments of her battle with Lyme disease. In the album, we could see Bella at various stages of her treatment, some of them from a hospital bed connected to a plethora of devices, as well as instances in which a nurse took some blood samples while the model watched intently while lounging in casual clothing in an armchair. 


The youngest Hadid sister sent a heartfelt comment at the bottom of these pictures thanking her entire family for their unwavering support and for being by her side through all of her hardships. She began by saying, "The little me that suffered would be so proud to have made me grow by not giving up on myself."


Bella, on the other hand, spoke candidly about her struggle with her illness, characterising it as a perplexing experience because being vulnerable had surely made her rethink some of her advantages. "Living in this condition, which was deteriorating over time and with effort as I tried to make my family, my supporters, and myself proud, had an impact on me that I just can't express. The model added, "Being so depressed and unwell with so many gifts, advantages, possibilities, and loves surrounding me was perhaps the most confused thing ever.


In the same way, Bella made it apparent that, despite the fact that the situation hasn't always been upbeat, she is confident that the journey so far has been worthwhile. "There are two things I want to make clear to you all: first, I'm OK, so there's no need to worry, and second, I wouldn't swap anything for the world. If I had to go through everything over again to come to this very point where I am today, with all of you, finally healthy, I would. She proudly said, "It transformed me into the person I am today.


Bella couldn't help but spread some of the good vibes she exudes and has gotten from everyone to her fans, especially to those who are going through a similar scenario to hers. "The cosmos operates in the most terrible and beautiful ways, but I must assure you that things will improve if you are having trouble. I swear, move aside, be steadfast, have trust in your path, and walk in your truth, and the clouds will start to part. "I have so much gratitude and perspective on life, these 100+ days of Lyme, chronic illness, co-infection treatment, almost 15 years of invisible suffering, it was all worth it," she said.


Bella concluded by expressing her gratitude to all of her fans, family, physicians, and friends who had been monitoring her health for their support throughout this difficult struggle, which had definitely taught her countless lessons about life. As painful as the process was, she explained, "I tried to pick the most uplifting images I could because the result was the most enlightening experience of my life, filled with new friends, new visions, and a new brain." She continued, making it plain that she had no intention of leaving the runways, even if it will be some time before it occurs. "I'll be back when I'm ready," she said.
