In today's video, I'm reflecting on what summer means to me, especially as someone living with chronic illness. Summer has always been a time of adventure and freedom, but this year has been a bit different. The pain has reached new levels, and spontaneous escapes into nature have become rare.

I share my struggles and how I've had to adapt—finding joy in simpler, local adventures like picnics in the park and short walks. We talk about the pressure to enjoy every moment of the short Canadian summer, and how I'm learning to balance my energy to avoid flares.

I'm also diving into how I've picked up reading again after struggling postconcussion and the beauty of finding slower, more mindful activities. It's all about embracing the changes, finding peace in the present, and appreciating the small moments.

Join me as I navigate these challenges, share my experiences, and hopefully inspire you to find your own rhythm in the midst of it all. Thanks for watching and being here with me. I appreciate you all so much!

Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoyed the video.

Take care,
Daniela

I’m Daniela I have been diagnosed with several chronic illnesses. I look normal, I do things, have a job and go on vacations, but inside I'm sick. I live with several chronic illnesses and they affect my daily life. I am in constant pain and struggle with brain fog. Although I'm constantly looking for new doctors, new treatments and solutions I have also accepted my illnesses and do not let them define me. In this channel, I share a little bit of everything. Information about my conditions, my travels, my dreams, my journey, my life. This channel is about life through chronic illness lenses. Come and join me and see what I'm up to lately.
