News anchor in Denver did a segment on Dianna
🕑 Added 2023-03-06 23:41:31 +0000 UTC(Levi typing) Hey everyone, just what the title says. An anchor in Denver did a story on Dianna and her sister Alicia. It's good to see that long COVID is getting exposure and hopefully being taken more seriously.
(Fun fact) Dianna and I(Levi) met because of her sister. Alicia and I were close friends in college. About 6 years later I had the dream job of a lifetime when her sister, Dianna, was looking for a full time videographer/editor.
Also, you might have seen we posted a Youtube video on Dianna's channel describing the situation and telling people they can support her here on Patreon. So hello our newcomers! We seriously can't comprehend the amount of support. We thank you so so much.

Sorry to drop this here. Making sure you’re aware of it. In short, this is saying ask your doc about metformin for long Covid. https://twitter.com/davidasinclair/status/1635361010122113024?s=46&t=rWnkfifOsaCSx8e2NLcEiw

I’m here to support. I hope this helps
Joseph Borges
I'm a middle science teacher that has been showing Physics Girl videos to my class for years. I came to Youtube to find the cool pi video you did with Veritasium to show for Pi Day tomorrow and saw the health update video and then joined here. My students and I love your content and hope you get well soon.
Tony
here to help support thanks to Simone. <3
Joshua Olson
Get well soon! This is my first time joining Patreon and signing up for an annual subscription. It couldn’t go to a better cause or a more engaging physics educator.
Verena Meissner
Hello, I’m a Physics major who developed a chronic illness during my last semester of university. It’s incredibly isolating, so I hope you know you’re not alone even if it feels like it. Your videos helped Physics feel accessible to me, someone who is a woman and comes from a low-income background. Thank you.
Juan Carlos Ayala
Get well dear girl, we will wait for you as long as you need, because we need you around…
Jason Burnfield
Get well soon! You are indeed a bright light and a positive force in the world. I also wish Kyle the best. Stay strong man! You got this!
Steven Kerckhof
Get well soon Dianna!

Please get well soon, Dianna. Our world is a much better and brighter place because of you. Stay strong. We love you.
Alok Bharadwaj
Get well soon, Diana! I always loved your energy and enthusiasm bringing science to all of us 🙂

Dianna was brought up on the podcast This Week in Virology. The hosts are fans and want to help. Email Vincent@microbe.tv and daniel@microbe.tv. Link to podcast. They talk about her at around the 25 min mark. https://pca.st/episode/7587ced7-73c3-47dc-8b27-b5f6b167263f

Get well soon, we all miss your amazing videos and how you make science cool!

Dear Diana, you have to get well soon; I believe you will; I know you will, I was not aware of what you've been going through till I saw Simone's update, and I was sobbing by the end of it; I am not sure what to write, and I am not religious, but I am praying for you in a way
Douglas Mark
Saw Simone's update on your health Dianna. My heart dropped. Just joined your Patreon to help get you better. We're here with you, for you. Just an FYI that I commented on Simone's update something that might be something you already know..but just in case..and maybe your providers can consider, here's a copy of my post: "Get well soon Dianna. I read a Japanese research paper that COVID-19 can mess with our DNA that makes an important nutrient called CoQ10. CoQ10 is needed in our Kreb's (Citric Acid) Cycle that make the energy our cells need like photosynthesis makes energy for plants. Lotsa love from Toronto. ♥♥♥"
Rob MacKenzie
Hey Diana. Your videos have brought me and my gf closer, we love watching your content. I suffer from some of the same symptoms sometimes (and coincidentally right now, though it will pass soon, so nothing compared to this), and it's debilitating. Diana, we're all on your side, get better on your own schedule. You've made the world a better place through education, and you deserve to be taken care of until you recover. While Patreon is shitty health insurance in the grand scheme, we're here for you. ----- To her support network: Please take whatever you need to keep spring Diana and yourselves. Take leaves from work, hire support staff, etc. I look forward to hearing what ends up helping, even if it's just time. NSAID pain killers get me through the worst of my stuff, gets rid of the joint and muscle pain. I'm hopeful the new doctors you're looking at can provide some new options. Science this shit. I really hope things get better sooner than later, but we're here for you until they do. -Much love, Rob
AlX
Dianna, you will make it out of this and we will all be looking back at another of your amazing videos helping the world understand yet another of these odd things in life. And to your family and beloved husband, stay strong and keep doing what you’re doing… this too shall pass!! Sending best vibes!! 🖖🫶
Ed Bartkiewicz
Dianna and Levi I am a big fan and really enjoy the videos. I hope you get well soon.
Martin Rioux
"We seriously can't comprehend the amount of support.". Everyone loves Dianna. That why. Why do we love her so much would be another great question. My personal answer, she's smart, she's a great teacher, she's passionate, she tought me so much throughout the years. I never met Dianna and I never will but that doesn't matter to me. Take my 5$ a month if it can make the hell you're going through a little better. I'm glad I can do this for her. I'll be here until she comes back. I promise.
Jim Bull
I have showed so many of her videos to my college classes and they love her. She makes the complicated so easy to comprehend. Love her and wish her all the best! I am so sad she is going through this and her family and friends too! So thankful for all she has done so far and look forward to what she will still do when she gets to the other side of this!
Meredith Bauer
I joined Dianna's patreon after I saw Simone Giertz and Emily Calandrelli encourage viewers to support her. My husband and I have appreciated watching her content on and off for years -- we'll be small-tier Patreon supporters until she's back on her feet. I wish we could do more!
Aswath Narayanan
You're such an inspiration. Hope to see you soon on youtube 🙏
Robin Smith
Get well soon!
David MacDonald
Signed up to help support you and your family while you take the time to heal. You’re such a positive role mode for women and I want to help you get back to doing what you love.

Lars Erbs Madsen
Became a patreon after I watched the video your friend posted. I have learned alot from your videos and hope you can learn me and others alot more in the future. And yes im a neerd to🙂 waiting for your recovery 👍
Eelko de Vos
Dianna has been my favorite physics youtuber for years. Personally, I don't care if she makes new videos as long as she recovers and gets to enjoy her marriage to her husband again and enjoy being with friends and family, like she should. I became a patron just yesterday when I found out what had happened, and I'll continue to support her and her husband in this humble way during these trying times.
John Bruner
My thoughts and lots of prayers go out to Dianna and her family/friends. I would love to see her get better and to see her again on YouTube. 😌
Bbbiger
Please get well. The world cannot lose one more person like you. We cannot afford it

Once you have had it; you know how reall it is. I had gotten covid once and omicron once;they are nothing that's fooling around. I had one after the other;I dont remember.which was first,because I coulndt even think. I hope Dianna feel better soon;prayers for her.
Thomas Kloppholz
Thank you Simon - @dianna please don't be mad at her.
Rafael Almeida
Oh no! I just found out about this through Simone's video. Hope you're back on your feet soon, Dianna! It's heartbreaking seeing you like that. You're always so full of life in your videos! I always feel like a kid again when I watch them.
Marvin McCreary
Hopefully while Diana is awaiting her Long COVID clinic evaluation, she consider trying to optimize her nutrition. ME/CFS is associated with both low vitamin D and low Omega 3. Consider testing and/or supplements. Both of these supplements are generally save and play important roles in modulating the immune system. …adequate Omega 3s are important at producing “resolvins” that can help end chronic inflammation. Also, consider supplements that support mitochondrial health as Long COVID has been associated with damage to mitochondria. So mitochondrial focused supplements such as NMN/NR, AKG, NAC could help as well (all generally recognized as safe with potential upside and little downside except for the relatively trial cost). Polyphenols (resveratrol, Curcumin, and others) might also help but there are potentials for drug interactions that would need to be considered.
Dan Fogle
Reading these articles is bringing back memories. I had Lyme disease back in the mid-80s when it was also something weird and new that not many people understood. I was sick for probably 1.5 to 2 years before things really started improving. All my joints have been a little messed up ever since then(knees and ankles, mostly), but I've remained physically active taking part in activities such as karate, judo, track, yoga, fencing, and archery among others. Now I'm a software developer who within the past six months has gone back to school planning for a career change into physical therapy(chemistry is kicking my ass...). It's a long road, and a lot of people helped me walk it, but it can be done. Recovery from illness is work in its self, so take the time you need and I'm sure you'll come back stronger than ever just like I did.
Centralperk
I’ve had disabling LC/MECFS for 3 years now. Joined Patreon to support Dianna after learning about her horrible journey. Keeping you in my thoughts.
Brooke Liles
I was not follower but I saw Andy Weirs post linking the video. I am the spouse/caregiver of LC sufferer. Sending her and the entire family our love and support. You guys are not alone. Hang in there.

You are going to get through this Dianna! This is temporary. You are strong with an amazing family and they are also strong. You will get through this together and we are excited for when you recover and come back to us. we miss you and we love you so much Dianna!
DoctorX17
Coming from the update video Simone did — I didn’t know Dianna was sick, but it’s heartbreaking. Here to do my little part, and praying she can be back to smiling and having fun and living her life as soon as possible. And much love and prayer for you Levi, and all her family and friends in such a hard time.
Purav Shah
You fascination for physics is very inspiring. I have been following you on YouTube over a year now. I enjoy your videos and always look forward for the next one. I hope you recover from this situation as soon as possible. I will try to be a patreon member as long as I can. Quick shout out to your friend who made a video on YouTube explaining your situation.
Whitefox
You WILL make it through this, and I CANNOT WAIT to see you after it.
Joseph Walker
Dianna, you've inspired me to keep pushing into the awkward unknown, to face challenges we haven't met before. Your love of science is only surpassed by the love of your family and the youtube community. I hope your recovery is swift We're all here for you 💜
Jehzz
We're rooting for you Dianna!
Brad Knowles
Throughout my time in school and college, I've only ever had two teachers that really changed my life. Mrs King, my 9th grade math teacher, and Mrs. Gryzbowski, my 10th grade physics teacher. For me, watching Diana is kind of like both of those two teachers wrapped up in one person. I hope she gets to feeling better soon, regardless of whatever she and you choose to do with your lives afterwards. I'm just glad I got to be a tiny part in that process for a while.
Tacos
Wishing for a full recovery. Dianna has the support of the internet as a whole - Even those who don't know her will someday come to appreciate all she has done for science education. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Ginger Anderson
I am currently an undergraduate student studying applied mathematics. I owe a lot of my education in STEM to Dianna and Youtubers like her. From middle school onwards, I got all of that education for free. After seeing Simone's update, I became a patron as a small way to give back to a community that has meant so much to me over the years. You are so strong Dianna. Your love for what you do inspired me to love it too. I'm sending all my love and keeping you in my prayers.
Nemanja Stijak
I studied physics but decided to quit for something more practical - software development. But seeing Diana talk about physics always remind me of my young student days and my fascination with physical wonders that surround us. I am long time patreon supporter but after watching Simone video just upped my subscription to help her when she needs help the most. Get well!!! We need you and the people like you in this world!!!
Roger Peterson
I have been following Diana and Simone on YouTube for many years and they are two of the best people ever. As someone who was a caregiver to my wife for many years, who had Lupus, I understand the struggle to care for a loved one. I wish I was in a better financial position to help more, but I give you all the love and support I can. ❤️ Hoping for all the best.
Javier Montoya
Just now I opened a Patreon account for the first time, to help Diana in this very difficult time and to show my admiration and appreciation. Science dissemination at the highest level is not often done by women and Diana's enthusiasm and quality of work are unparalleled. Get well soon!
Saikiran_Alagatham
I believe I have a strong personality, then I see something like this and my eyes starts pouring without a warning. Stay Strong Diana, You can win this.

Wish i could do more. Have patience because there is some good in this world and it is worth fighting for.

I signed up for Patreon after seeing your friend Simone's message. Don't be too mad at her, and please get well soon.
Carl Tuttle
Thank you for the recent update video! Sending our best wishes from my family!
Mike Blaguszewski
Same thought process here. I never subscribed to Physics Girl, but I really enjoyed some of the videos I came across. One of her more recent ones helped me a lot with my understanding of the Big Bang and the expansion of the universe. Just this wonderful mix of enthusiasm and patience in her explanations.
Kathy Fieldstad
Supporting you now after seeing Simone's wonderful tribute and update. Best wishes on Dianna's recovery. Kyle, you are a loving and wonderful husband. This must be very difficult for you and all of Dianna's friends.
Paul Heppenstall
My thoughts are with this amazing person through such a difficult time for her and her family. I look forward to seeing Dianna back to her fun energetic self soon x

Oh hey, look, there's Simone! I love Simone. Wait...what's Simone doing on Diana's YT channel?? ((click))... So here I now sit, eating my lunchtime soup through tears and just wishing you all the best and sending all the healingest thoughts I can to you, and Levi, and your whole family. There's a whole community here for you, and we'll stay here for you while you get through this thing. Love and hugs while you heal. <3
Joel
Hello! I've been watching your videos ever since the Vortex Rings. And I've gotten both my elementary school students and my own kids watching you, too. I just want you to know that you've made a difference to a lot of people! Feel better soon.
Rene Schlesinger Comas
Hi Diana! I wanna thank you for your amazingly happy way of looking at the world while being so rational about everything. It played a part of me looking for professional help, since I was depressed. Now I'm happier than ever and you played a part in my recovery. I feel like I have to help you back and I'm more than honored to be a small but crucial part for your recovery. You and your family are more than welcome to visit Guatemala when you get better. I would be more than happy to take you all in and take you around Guatemala! Get well soon Diana! We all miss you! Kyle, Alicia and everyone around her. Be strong she WILL get better! Hugs and a lot of love to everyone!
Bruce Gordon
Been watching you for a long while and sad to hear your long Covid has taken control of your life for the moment. Hoping for a steady and lasting recovery!
Alexander Schneider
Hi Dianna! Every now and then I came across your videos and I enjoyed them very much. Today I heard the shocking news that you are struggling with serious health issues and I immediately felt the need to support you during these dark times. I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart! I'm sure that you will get through this and I'm looking forward to a future video where you tell us that you have fully recovered and you can now go back to making great content as you have always done in the past!
Manuel J. Colon Muniz
You're loved, Dianna. You've been teaching and entertaining me for years now, and it hurts to know that you're down for the count. I hope you recover quickly, and I hope that we can all help you in our own way. May you recover quickly and fully.
Dennis Decker
I have seen some of your videos long ago. And yet, as soon as I saw your username I remembered exactly who you are. You are a part of the light the internet needs, and I desperately hope that light returns to you. You are cherished by many. Please recover as best as you can and continue to do what makes you happy. We will help you as much as we can.
Emily Allan
I joined Patreon without delay because your personality has brightened my life and the world is a much better place with you in it. You are very loved.

Mary Mc
Levi and Alicia (and all her family and friends), thank you so much for keeping us informed of how Dianna is doing. She's a spark in all our lives. I've had covid and long covid twice. It's not nice. People DO need to be informed, and all I can do is thank all of you. Dianna is held in light. Much love.
Manuel Jenkin
Hi Diana, I hope you get well soon! My career is inspired by you (As an Electrical engineer, the vortexing video you did with grant Sanderson was the point where I felt I should learn turbulence modelling). I pray for you to recover to your full quickly, and inspire more people! Stay strong!
Brian Shelf
Genuinely devastated for Dianna and everyone around her who are so beautiful stepping up and being good humans. Not going to weigh down these posts endlessly with my guff but love to you, love to those you love and can't wait to hear what amazing science you find to blow our minds with about this situation when you're back and better. PS - NO PERKS REQUIRED. Best perk will be you getting better. Everyone save their energy.
Glen
Lots of prayers for you, your family and your medical team that they give you the very best care they can.

We've all witnessed your strong personnality and your dedication throughout the years, no one doubts that you'll fight and recover. Get well Dianna!

If you're reading Dianna, remember to FIGHT. Diseases are forces of nature but so are you. Push yourself till you can't. Then rest. Then push yourself again. Find that balance! Always positive! FIGHT! Much love ❤

I too just joined. I've watched Dianna's videos on occasion and was missing her great content. Simone's status update on Dianna's condition brought me to tears! And I decided it was time to join and show my support as well. Get well Dianna! Prayers for you, Levi, and your family!
TekGodCMS
I've been following Dianna and Simone on Youtube since Mar of 2020.. It's hard to watch such capable people being hit with such obscure and devastating illnesses. Thinking about y'all and hoping my small contribution is part of a tidal wave of support.

Pippin Lowe
I just heard of your long covid. I am so sad about this. I love your videos. You make science fun. I'm kind of speechless about this. Please, please get healthy!
Rick Gregory
Our hearts sunk when we saw the video about Dianna. I figured something was up because it had been quite a while since we saw a new Physics Girl video post... but never expected Long Covid. This is so sad. I really hope she can pull through this. We'll be thinking of her.
Paul
I also had no idea you were sick until I saw Simone's video but please rest assured that content or not, you have my full support. Sending nothing but love and best wishes to you and your family!
Ricardo Rodriguez
Dianna, hope you get better !! It's hard to find content creators that put out quality educational videos. Be strong, and focus on getting better, we are all looking forward to your return!!
All the fish
Just joined after seeing Simone's video. All educators should have an unconditional income - that's the last thing she should have to worry about right now. Her physics girl videos have given me courage to get back into a subject I'm not good at but have always loved anyway. I wish nothing but best to Diane and all her wonderful family & friends!
Amund Øyen
Thanks for the entertainment and education
Tristan Holley
Just subscribed for the year. Hoping for a safe and full recovery! I've always been such a fan of you and your videos! What you do to help people learn truths and facts about the world around us is invaluable. Looking forward to your return! Be strong
Nathan-Andrew
I saw the story on IG, then Simone’s video led me here. It’s so heartbreaking to compare her states before and after Covid. I’m not sure how long I can afford to subscribe, but I had to do something. You’ll all be in my thoughts.
Allan Trudgeon
Prayers from Australia Dianna. Been watching your channel for a couple of years now and really hoping you feel better soon!
Roy Turner
Hang in there Dianna. I'm glad you're getting the treatment you need, and so glad you have such wonderful caregivers and friends. Get well soon!
Dianna Cowern
(Levi typing) Thanks everyone for the comments! So many people have joined in the past day that unfortunately it's much harder to get to and read them all lol. But that's a great thing, I/We are so overwhelmed at the amount of support. I can't wait to see Dianna again and share all this. Thanks so so much everyone

Harry Hastings
Good thoughts, vibrations, and prayers for your recovery.
Nora
For extra help to Dianna we should watch her YouTube videos and adds (if not YT Premium user) to bring in extra so she can get the best help and they are not losing anything. Put on playlists and repeat them over and over. If you dont have the time put your device on low volume, not 0, and leave it in another room.
Jack Roach
We all look forward to your recovery. You, your family and your entire extended family are in our thoughts! Get well on your pace...we'll be here when you return!
Nora
Sending lots of love to Dianna, her amazing husband Kyle and thank you for taking care of Dianna, also wont forget friends and family ❤️ I just subscribed here to see how she is doing and never knew what Patreon was. Im excite for the content i have never seen. Dianna will get better! Cant wait for the day she comes back and is better! Until then we will be here and everywhere else supporting Dianna. Dianna - we love you and hope for a speedy recovery ❤️
Andreas Lianos
Best of luck girl. Best of luck, and thank you!

I, too am a first time member to Patreon, only to send Diana my wishes for a fast and full recovery. It's the very least I can do for someone who's given us so much joy, wonder, and excitement in all your videos. Looking forward to when you beat this! Sending love to you, Kyle, Levi, and your family and friends.

Get well soon from Australia! I hope Dianna will read these messges when she recovers and realise how many people joined Patreon just to support her. Good on ya Simone!

I did not know about Dianna's condition until the video from today. I was just wondering about the lack of videos, which I now totally understand. I send all my well wishes from Germany and hope she will get better soon.

Learned about the situation from Simone's video. Diana, I wish you a swift recovery and all the strength, emotional and physical, to those close to you. With all respect and love for happy physicsing from Ukraine.
Einar Mikkelsen
Jeg håper du snart føler deg bedre. Simone sendte meg.
Cesar Cota
Just heard about Dianna's condition through Simone's video and I'm heartbroken! I'm contributing with the hope of Dianna recovering as best as she can! Dianna, you can do this! ❤️
Giliam de Carpentier
Yeah, I also just heard about Dianna's health situation through the update with Simone, and decided to do what little i can by joining. I wish that sending healing energy was an actually physics thing, right now. Rooting for you!!!
Chris Martin
Don't need perks, I'm just here to support Dianna. Stay strong hun, you can beat this
Shinko Chengstein
This was my first patreon subscription ever. The world wishes you speedy recovery, Diana.
Arthur McAllgood
Thank you for posting the update on YT. With all of the news and updates streaming in every day, I had no idea Dianna was dealing with this. I hope my small contribution can help!
Eugen Miljan
Get well soon :)
Josh Osborne
Just joined. The video brought me to tears, but it also brought me here. Glad to be a part of this.
Jason J
I had no idea. I love learning from her and appreciate all her contributions. I am scared for her as if I know her personally, this was very upsetting. I hope she begins to turn the course back to recovery soon.
J.C.
It's not the scientific or medical breakthrough she needs, but I hope the small donation never the less eases a worry or two for Diana's caretakers. Hang in there--the world needs more Diana, and you're the only one we got!

I joined to try to help as I have recovered from long COVID myself. It caused me to go from 270lbs to 180lbs end up hospitalized and on short term disability for 6 months. I had to do PT for a few months as well to get my strength back. Hospital claims for me were over $250,000 but thankfully I had good insurance. I found out it had caused my immune system to go on overdrive. Even for other food proteins it started to react too. This was a kind of allergy but not anaphylaxis. I ended up getting intolerant to eggs and milk proteins. After stopping eating these foods my health improved alot. I saw in the video eggs in it and wanted to mention this. Question all food choices as well if you have ME/CFS too. Since that diagnosis can be a challenging one to treat. I even started to have nervous system problems and numb patches of skin, and anxiety caused by same nerve problems. I am still dealing with aftereffects from this. From vision to anxiety to sensitivities to foods still. I don't fully understand her symptoms, but it could be the immune system reacting still to food and other things it should not be. Auto Immune tests found nothing for me as well. I had hypersensitivity to light and sounds. I can't tell if its same problems or different. I wish her all the best.
Drew Wolf
She's gonna stay in my thoughts and prayers. I really hope she gets better soon. Her smiles always brighten my days, as I'm sure it does many others as well!
Marvin Tran
It’s so sad that Diana has to go through this. I hope she makes a recovery. I have been following physics girl for a while. She makes great content. We wish you the best physics girl!
Mike Koss
I've been watching Diana's posts about her struggles for a while. It's really shocking; more people need to know that COVID is no joke. Simone's video was really touching - you can see so many people really care about Diana. Best of luck with your recovery! 💕
Martin Croft
wow, welcome to all the new people
Blain Eno
Your thoughts are with you! Stay positive and get well soon.
Defeng
we all love physics and more so for Diana, here to show support for her full recovery and encouragement for her hubby and family!
Mike Lowry
I’m yet another Simone video viewer. I hope you get well soon, Dianna!
Bob Hilbig
Joined to support with what i can. Love her videos and I hope that joy and spark come back as quickly as possible.
Marco Anello
If there is more we can do…, please let us know…. I guess Dianna was inspiring all of us and this is our chance to say thank you….
Marco Anello
Dianna, get up fast and kick that bloody ass of Simone for her video…, and then just make 112358 more videos together!!! And Simone…, maybe you should start thinking about a machine to protect yourself – I guess Dianna will give you a real big kick….
Js
Simone helped by telling us. She is a good egg. Don't be mad at her... We want to help.
Adam Guss
Kyle, please tell Dianna that she is amazing and an inspiration to my entire family, but ESPECIALLY my 11 year old, curiosity filled daughter. Get well soon, the world needs you!!!
Jack Baker
Get well soon, Dianna! We are all rooting for you!
Dev Maru
Get well soon Diana. We are all rooting for you. 🙏🏽
Jen S
We are so sad to hear about your suffering. Sending all love and light to you, your husband, and all your family and friends.
Syren Artistry
I was so shocked to learn of Dianna's health condition - I also came here right after seeing the newest update on YouTube. Hearing her say that she can't move or think is devastating. I hope that she is responsive to treatment.
Robert Oswalt
I hope you all can feel the love and concern from all of us around the world. Remember that you are not alone. I am grateful for Simone's video mentioning what a blessing Patreon can be to someone struggling with health issues. Please know that we are praying, sending positive vibes, sending positive energy for Dianna's full recovery and for your strength during this difficult time.
Kevin Reardon
I'm going to continue my contributions in order to help as much as I can. Get well soon, and as soon as possible.
Carolyn Butler
Saw the shout out from Simone and moved a different Patreon sponsorship to here because I don’t have any extra to spare but I know it’s possibly more needed here.
K Siva Suriya Prakash
We always there for Diana! Who makes my life happier everyday!
Sabrina
I haven't checked in on Diana's youtube channel for a while, so I was absolutely shocked to see how sick she is. What a horrible, horrible disease. I hope that this helps people understand how serious it is, and how them wearing a mask to prevent spread is so critically important. My heartfelt sympathy to Diana, Kyle, and Diana's mom and entire family as they work, wait, and hope. So many people love her, and we all wait with you.
Adam Howell
Simon Yogurt sent me here. I'm so sad this is happening to Diana. My wife has a mild case of long covid, so I wish you guys the best.
Tyler Phelps
Thanks, Simone, for reaching out. This is the first time I supported someone on Patreon, since I don't have much to spare, but Diana has been a huge inspiration to me. I'm praying COVID doesn't take another giant way from this world.
Natasha Maxim
I'm also here from Simone's video, had no idea what was going on and I was vaguely wondering about the video pause. All the support in the world to Dianna+friends+family, rooting for science to prevail and aid in her recovery.
Kit Lammers
Saw the video by Simone, sending positive thoughts.
El Universo de Everett
My best wishes to Physics Gril from Mexico! Stay strong physics girl, you have a big family and friends !
TJ
Sure, I want Diana back making her amazing videos. But mostly I want her well enough to enjoy life with the people who are closest to her, to share in its marvels with the ones who are by her side.
David Page
...and Kyle, Levi and family... words fail me in considering what you are going through. Stay strong and hang in there, it's the best thing you can do at this point, and it's important.
Howard Simons
I wish I had rejoined the Physics Girl Patreon for a different reason but after watching Simone decided there couldn't be a better reason. Keep fighting it Dianna.
David Page
Dianna, hang in there, there are a lot of people, including complete strangers like myself, that are all wishing for a speedy recovery and your reappearance on the world stage where you have brought so much fun and interest in your passion for physics, and I would say, for life.
David Page
Like Sophia I just joined after watching Simone's post on YouTube. Despite spending a lot of time on YouTube, I had no idea this was happening and am devastated to find out this is happening to such a naturally wonderful person.
Karl Heitmann
Let's pray for Diana. God can do everything.
Terence Bailey
Just signed up again and did annual. Levi, remember that the mind is way more powerful than the body. You certainly know that not only is Dianna beautiful, but super smart. Keep reminding her that with her mind she can't get through this and everything she chooses. Thanks for Simone youtube video as it triggered me to activate patron. I certainly look forward to the day she is herself again.
Sophia Lee
I just joined after seeing Simone on the channel. Sending you all love Dianna and co.
G$
Thanks, Levi. Dianna's energy on whatever subject she would be posting on is so positive. It is very concerning (not to mention heartbreaking) to see her in this condition. Kyle is a true hero. I saw Simone's YT video on Dianna's channel and I am hoping for a positive outcome. All the best, Dianna!
gregg r
Thanks for keeping us informed. Please tell Dianna that the only thing she needs to think about is being easy with herself. We'll all be here to cheer her on whenever she's ready to see us. Best to everyone!
Yero
Simone’s video got me here. Hope you recover soon
Jessica M Kelsey
I know it's not much but I hope it helps. You are a bright light in a dark place and I hope we can all be a bright star for you.
Viking
Thank you for your content and your promotion of science in a world that seems to value it less than it deserves. Best wishes for you and your recovery.
Dirk Strange
You are loved by so many for all that you have contributed to our world, and we're here to support however we can. Hang in there and don't lose hope, Diana. You got this! <3
Ben Payne
Joining all other new subscribers in that we wish you the very best and that someday soon you'll be able to read how much we have loved your content, knowledge, and personality.
M Davis
I just wanted to say to Dianna - we are all cheering for you. I’m a new subscriber BECAUSE I want to help someone else who has chronic illness, and I know how long it can take to find a new normal. Please take care of yourself and tell those around you to do the same. I hope we patrons all can lift a little bit of financial weight to help y’all in this time of need. <3

Diana is amazing. I have an undergrad degree in Aeronautics, and her videos got me hooked on amateur everyday physics. I pray the Lord blesses her and her family strength and comfort in her recovery

Lonewolf201011
Prayers for you and your family!! So sorry you are suffering…you can do THIS!! You’ve got THIS!! Has your family considered IV vitamin therapy or Vitamin D injections? Again our prayers are with you! We are so worried about you and want to help. DM me if you want to hear our experience with the vitamin d injections.
Molly Scrivens
Hang in there, Diana. Long time watcher, now a Patreon supporter.
Brad Hullett
Get well Dianna!
Amber Lee Dennis
Sending you love and support and praying for the best possible outcome for you! Before I found your channel, I had no interest in physics at all. Now I think about it more as the science of magic. Your contributions to science have made a difference and I'm grateful for the sparkle you have brought to what I thought was a dull subject. With gratitude, Amber Lee Dennis
Lucas Rossi
I'm from Brazil and you are the first Patreon I ever submitted so please Dianne get well soon, the world needs a lot of people like you!
Jonathan Chadwick
What a wonderful set of people you all are to support your friend like this. Take care of her and each other. I hope she will be well enough to love you all back in the ways she wants to soon.
Joseph Murphy
Praying for you every day, Dianna, Levi, and Alicia.
Geneva Lester
I’ve enjoyed her videos for years now and hope a treatment can be found soon. We miss you!
Joe Kassel
I have always been a Diana supporter, but now I am a supporter through Patreon. Thanks to Simone for directing me here so that I can help in some tiny way. Thank you to Kyle for being there with Diana, and thank you to Levi for always providing content. I love all of you, and know that I am sending positive healing vibes. (And Diana, know that is all Simones fault! 😊)
Brett DiFrischia
I wish Dianna the strength to fight this damn thing. Her positive energy is an inspiration. I'd also like to wish her family and friends all the stamina and fortitude necessary to help her through. Thank you, Dianna et al, for helping to educate and inspire me, my family, and so many others!
ya$h
Only learned today that you are dealing with this. We're all pulling for you, pal.
Hitoshi Yamauchi
Hi, I have just watched Simone's video, so I joined Diana's Patreon to support her health situation. So, I would probably leave when she recovered fully. (But I am a fan of the videos.) I need nothing, neither perks nor a card. Just get well soon. Best wishes, Hitoshi
Pato Hondagneu Roig
Dianna, you're an inspiration to me. I hope you get well soon. I can't thank you caretakers enough for their effort here. This is my first time subscribing to Patreon but it's the only way I have right now to help in some fashion.
Generic Professor
I actually discovered Diana’s YouTube channel in 2021. I had Covid in January 2020 when they told me it wasn’t even airborne and not possible. I then got Covid a second time in July 2021. Only this time it’s been long Covid. I ended up going through 16 weeks of physical therapy as I had no grip strength and couldn’t feel anything from my knees down. The physical therapy help, but I still have lack of feeling in my left hand. I still get brain fog, not as often as I used to, but I still get it. I actually left work earlier today because I completely ran out of energy halfway through my day. Wishing Diana all the best, it’s a long road to recovery, but I have faith she’ll get there.
LJ Jones
So much love and care and prayer for Diana, Kyle, Alicia, Levi, Simone, and her host of family and friends
Patricia McLean
We sure hope you are on the mend and can get back to being your passionate self as soon as possible!
Daniel Riley
Dianna's charm and enthusiasm have been an inspiration! I am looking forward to the video with the news that the worst is past. Get well soon, Dianna!
Mark Thomson
Your videos are always inspirational and I share them with my niece and my son to show them how cool science is. Get well soon.
Jeffrey Wilson
I love your content and want to help you to get through this rough patch. Sometimes life throws us a curveball and getting a little support from those we've helped over the years is a great booster. Hang in there! You've got this. Never give up.
Sara
I have not joined any Patreon for years now because I always just supported creators I loved through purchasing merch or going to live events (for those who had them). But for Dianna, I made an account and have become a supporter here. Even a friend who has occasional medical bills has found herself struggling financially. So, I just want to do what I can to allow Dianna's husband to be with her and see that she gets the medical treatment she needs to recover. Dianna, should you read this or have it read to you, even though I'm not in the science field at all, I still find you an inspiration. And the thing I hope for you above all else in this moment is a return to health.
Cat Gray from ShaneCat Studio
I believe in the power of group meditation to help people, so I will be doing a meditation every day at 9am, 3pm and 9pm EST, until Dianna is healed. The more people that join me the better. Check your time zone, so you can figure out what time to do this at the times I'm doing it would be great. I've seen group meditations do amazing things. So, while meditating, imagine Dianna being filled with a golden light that is healing every cell in her body, giving her strength and taking away pain. Thanks to all who participate. ❤️
Mark Brown
Get well soon, Diana. Good job Simone.
Jerry Heiselman
I've been watching Diana for years on YouTube. I felt like now she could use our help more than ever, so I just joined the Patreon. Best wishes to Diana and to her entire support network of friends and family. I really do hope that she gets well enough to get mad at Simone :D
Curtis Vickery
I've been following Diana's channel for a decade or so now. This is my first time ever doing anything on Patreon but, well, it feels like doing something. As an educator myself, her work has helped me a great deal and I have a strong appreciation for it.
Suzanne Strickland
I don't want to stir up any argument... but I hope this really helps people take things with COVID-19 more seriously.
Andrew Mc Donald
I didn't know why the Physics Girl videos were not appearing on my frontpage anymore, I guess I know why now. I wish you a great recovery and I also want to thank you for the content you provided over the years.
Artyom
Get well, Diana! I applaud her husband for making so much for her - true love.
Rick
I was attracted to her channel because one of my daughters has a degree in physics. I really love her Content and hope that the treatments she is getting will get her back up and energetics again.
IamSentient
I hope you bounce back stronger than the strong force.
Nigel D Perels
My very best wishes for Dianna's full recovery - I have loved her enthusiasm and energy for physics, and look forward to the time when she is back to full strength.
Richard Waskiewicz
I know this doesn't mean a whole lot from some random guy on the Internet - but it's heartbreaking to hear about Dianna. I lost my dad to COVID, so I get it. Stay strong - fight till the end - and let friends and family support you even when it's hard. They love you more than anyone else could.
Gregory Gentile
Diana you get well soon girl, there are thousands praying for you and you need to know the world is much better place with you in it, you bring so much to so many of us.
Someonetobe
We're all here cheering for you. Don't give up! Take all the time in the world but don't give up, please.
Davinder Chandhok
It's past midnight and I should be sleeping, but I saw the latest video and knew I needed to hop on here and support someone who has contributed so much to society. I wish Dianna a speedy and full recovery!
Starchy
watched Diana since I was a kid (wild!) and she helped my passion for learning and my little autistic heart be unashamedly interested in the things I love. I hope things keep looking up for her, you guys are doing an amazing job of helping her and I'm super grateful she's getting such good care. <3
Gillian Green
Here to support someone I admire, from a fellow creative.
Phil Stubblefield
"We seriously can't comprehend the amount of support." Dianna is a gem of a human being as well as a key player in the effort to bring more women into the fields of science and mathematics. She deserves to be supported! 👍
Matthew Wilmshurst
Just here to add a little to the cause. Wishing you a full and speedy recovery
Kevin Liam O'Donnell
Happy to provide science based research, advice, coping skills, and general adaptations for ME/CFS. I’ve had it for many years now and while there’s still a ton of nonsense flying around, a few of us have banded together to fight for a cure and for science based treatments.
Mitra Behzadi
From the bottom of my heart I wish Dianna healing and recovery. I learnt so much from her over the years and I love her spirit, so curious and kind and humble. She's very strong, she'll get better. I have faith.
