Thank you for being so real. That's what I love in your videos ! I like your "simple" week and I like your "simple" skincare. So easy to relate :) As a chronic illnesses person, I'm sorry to hear about your problem. It really sucks. And on that topic too, you don't have to follow social media trends (yes, yes, there are, even for illnesses...) : you don't need to be a warrior, you don't need to achieve wonderful things to show people what you can do even when you are sick, you don't have to smile every day to show that you can live easily with your disease. It took me many years to be kind of OK with my health issues so of i can suggest some advices : take the time to be sad about what happened, speak about it if it makes you feel good, do you. For me, it's not learning to live with the disease, it's learning that despite of the disease, you are still living, you still can achieve fun things. It takes time and it's OK and it will be OK. Take care
THANK YOU!!! 🤍 I’m sorry to hear about your health issues and sorry if it took me a while to answer to this comment but seriously thank you. I didn’t know health issues were a trend on social media 🤦🏻♀️ but ultimately you’ve reminded me that it’s important to be gentle with ourselves when dealing with something like this and to do whatever feels good. Which may vary from person to person. Thank you for sharing this with me! I wish you all the best! Take care 🤍
The acceptance stage of living with a chronic disease is the worst. I have tinnitus, which some might say isn't as "bad" as other diseases involving pain, but having to accept I may have to live with this for the rest of my life a few years ago at 24 was SO hard. Once I stopped buying lots of supplements to try to get "rid" of it, and learning to "live with it", has helped my mental health so much. What helped for me has been a) joining online forums b) taking a FEW supplements we're naturally deficient but have helped me e.g. magnesium and c) learning to accommodate myself e.g. investing in a noise machine which masks it. I also found talking about it with other people helped a lot because it turns out most people are living with a chronic illness of some form. I really hope you manage to find something that helps too! Proud of you for starting this conversation
Thank you so much for sharing this with me. I’m so sorry that you are going through this. Accepting it all is so so hard, because after the diagnosis you know that in a way things will never be the same. I can relate to “trying everything to get rid of it” 😅 (I’ve had this flare up for 6 weeks now, I’m waiting for my appointment with my rheumatologist and no “regular” meds like cortisone or ibuprofen have worked so far) and trying to get it all “solved” as fast as possible can bring the exact opposite: putting so much pressure on ourselves that it just makes it all worse. It takes time. Patience. And a lot of self work. But accepting how it is and making the most of what we have is not impossible, I think. Thank you for your words! Wishing you all the best! 🤍
Watching you speak Italian to Ziggy while brushing is the cutest thing I'll see this week! I'm sorry to hear about this struggle, but thanks for sharing. It takes guts to be vulnerable xxx
Kedves Jenny! Magyarországról követem a csatornádat. Körülbelül fél éve találtam rá. Azóta visszanéztem az összes videódat, nem beszélek túl jól angolul, ezért valamit többször is megnézek, mire mindent megértek, és nagyon megérintette a lelkemet a csodás személyiséged. 🥰 Nagyon örülök, hogy megtaláltam a csatornádat, értékes és érdekes tartalmakat gyártasz és remélem még nagyon sokáig nézhetem a videóidat. 🥰 Ziggy rajongója lettem, imádnivaló cica.😍🐈 Minden jót kívánok neked és kitartást!💪 Üdvözlettel: Szandi
I will start by saying it's always a pleasure to spend time with you, inside and outside TH-cam! I think that accepting the diagnosis of a cronic disease is always the hardest part because it feels like you are not really the person you thought you were. At least it was like that for me and Endometriosis! I felt like my body failed me, or that the person I thought I was, always healthy and productive, was not there anymore. But I think once you go past that stage, start living with it and taking care of yourself on a regular basis, it gets easier. And I totally agree, we should not have to wait for something like that to happen in order to start taking care of ourselves! A huge hug to you ❣
my dearest Teresa, first and foremost sorry for answering this late to your beautiful comment. Thank you because you always manage to tell me just the words that I need to hear and reassure me, comfort me and give a different perspective. I’m sorry that you too have to live with a chronic disease, but seeing how you manage to live with it so gracefully is a true inspiration! I’m still in that half attempt to accept it / half denial, which is not always helpful 😂 I guess I’m just scared. But I know I’ll get to that next stage, in my own time. Grazie mille amica mia! 🤍
I wonder sometimes if I have some form of arthritis. Too lazy to go to the doctor. :) I wish you well, and that you don't experience flare ups. I liked what you did to your space - flipping the bookcase and updating the couch over made a remarkable difference. 😀
Lovely result, bright and cosy studio appartment! ☆ Also loved to see your skin routine (and Ziggy's) So sorry to hear about your chronical illness. Good that you share and for sure it helps to normalise, to show life is not only sunshine. Thank you for being real and authentic ♡ And to normalise the less glittery part of life: I'm your age and in a covid recovery program for 10months now and after this I have to restart a heartrevalidation program in the hospital for a heart issue. That's not always easy but overall I am happy and grateful and I believe everyone has their own battles in life, also the ones that only show the glitter and glamour.. Thank you for this lovely video Take good care of yourself and I hope the medicines will help you ♡
thank you so much for watching and for sharing this with me. I’m so sorry to hear that you’re going through this. Like you said, life is not always sunshine and struggles are a part of it, but learning to make the most of what we have can make things a little easier. Wishing you all the best! 🤍
Accepting having a chronic disease is SO hard. I have EDS and ME. Acceptance has been the absolute hardest. With EDS comes a slew of other problems too. Getting a diagnosis, for me, was both horrible and good. It was a life sentence and also an explanation. All those things that was wrong with me were a result of one single problem, EDS (Ehlers Danlons Syndrome). Later, when I got ME it was more a grieving process. Grieving the life I will never have, the trips I will never take, the adventures I will never have… At the same time I feel rich because of the life I actually have. My family and friends (the few I have left), the hobbies I have left (the ones I can manage to do). I know I feel better when I take perfectly good care of my self, but sometimes I want chocolate, or a bit of champagne when everyone else is celebrating also. I go through periods of rebellion against my diseases and always end up paying for it afterwards😂 but then I’ve had my rebellion and I can keep going for a bit longer. I have arthritis flares sometimes and then it helps if I eat an anti inflammatory diet. It’s basically no sugar, no four and a few other things to think about. There are books on the subject if you feel like trying it out. It is very restrictive so it’s nothing permanent, but it helps during flares to lower inflammation in the body. I’m afraid one have to find their own way to live with the cards dealt to them. Not everyone do well with gratefulness, mindfulness and meditation. I think I have tried everything under the sun by now. I still rebel against my body every now and then and later pick up the pieces and just continue living. The alternative is not an option. Much love ❤
thank you so much for sharing this with me. I’m so sorry to hear what you’re going through. I agree that one has to learn to live with the cards dealt to them. Each one has their ways to deal, both practically and psychologically, with their situation. And let’s face it, some days feel nothing like gratitude. But that’s okay, it’s part of the journey. Accepting it all is hard. Oh boy, so hard. Not knowing what’s going to happen, how the illness will evolve and knowing that life has we’ve known it will never be the same. I try to eat healthy and I see that it does help, but with the current RA flare not enough. And sometimes I have cravings and I want to be able to act “normal”, have a beer or a glass of fine and some fries, and then I end up regretting it badly the next day 🙈 it’s all about learning and being kind to ourselves. Thank you for your words! Wishing you all the best! 🤍
Mi spiace molto per la malattia, non la conoscevo e spero che, come dici tu, sia solo un inquilino un po' fastidioso ma che non ti renda mai la vita impossibile. ❤
Hi Jenny, I have arthritis too ☹️ Have you tried Voltaren for pain relief? It works for me. It reduces pain & inflammation. It’s basically a topical ibuprofen. Also, I’ve noticed if I avoid sugar & white carbs, I have less pain, swelling & inflammation. I hope this helps ❤ (not sponsored)
thank you for the advice and for sharing about your illness with me. I‘m so sorry to hear this! Anyway I still haven’t tried Voltaren. I‘ve tried Arnica Gel and that didn’t really help… we‘ll see, maybe Voltaren will work better! I‘ve noticed too that paying attention to nutrition and avoiding certain foods (sugars, white carbs, alcohol) helps and makes life a little easier. But thanks for the reminder, it’s always good to hear it! 🤗 hugs!
I am really sorry to hear about your illness, but don't give up, because it may be food related. Food may cause chronic inflammation in the body which triggers immune response. I figured it out too late for myself after getting two chronic autoimmune deceases. My issues are gluten and casein. Excluding these foods helped me to half-heal one of autoimmune deceases, not the other, but at least now I know that I won't get any new ones.
Thank you so much for sharing this with me. I’m sorry to hear about your diagnoses. But it’s good to hear that you have found the cause and can reduce symptoms though a different diet, or even prevent things from getting worse. My diet is mainly vegan (on a few occasions I eat vegetarian, but the most part of my diet remains vegan), but I have noticed that when I avoid “trigger foods” such as sugar, processed foods, junk and alcohol, my body feels better. Our diet and what we feed to our body is so important and plays a huge role in our health! Wishing you all the best! 🤍

thank you Suzanne! 🤍
I'd describe this as 'the art of living' - very simple, and each aspect of life specifically thought out and curated to suit you perfectly.
thank you ☺️🤍
