Rough cut - Dianna goes to the E.R. on Valentines day.
🕑 Added 2023-02-20 20:53:28 +0000 UTC(Levi, Dianna's editor typing)
Hey guys, so we are going to post something like this soon. But I wanted to give you guys the rough cut or "sneak peek" if you will. We're still figuring out how we want to word everything and present it to the public so we appreciate if you don't show this elsewhere and let us release it when we are ready.
But I'm putting it here to keep you guys updated on everything. With your support you deserve to be updated on what is happening here at the team. Last week was rough. Dianna went to the E.R. and it looks like I might start having to shut more things down at the company to cut costs.
I'll try to find some fun stuff of Dianna to share with you guys this week. In the meantime, stay healthy and safe out there.
(I have some typos and mess-ups in the video. Remember it's a rough rough draft I will fix before releasing. Hope this feels like you are guys are at least in the loop of whats going on here). Thanks again.
(EDIT TO THE POST) There's lot of people asking for the link for the go fund me, so I will put it here. I just felt weird posting it to a place where everyone already contributes so much. Maybe a misjudgment on my part. Anyway, here is the link. Thank you guys so much - https://gofund.me/40fa8b46

Thank you, Levi. Wishing all the best for Diana, Kyle and friends and family. As a caregiver, please remember to take care of your own health and mental state. 🙏

This breaks my heart, Dianna :-/ ... I wish there was more we could do to help. You and Levi are an excellent team. <3

Oh no, that's so sad. Hoping for a speedy recovery.

Hoping for the best considering this horrible news. My science education is in molecular biology, research based in the use of classical methods to identify unknown bacteria, which is why I was interested in reading about mitochondria cellular repair being invoked by a gut bacteria care of production of urolithin A, a product recently approved by the gov for human consumption and now sold over the counter. Ask the doctor tending to Dianna if her condition is caused by compromised mitochondria and if the hospital is aware of urolithin A. The doctor can read about it and make an informed decision if it might play a role in treatment.

Agreed! Amazing!

Gofundme.com doesn't charge a processing fee to you or us, unlike other funding sites so I would rather send emergency funds through gofundme.

Thanks! It's also in the description now

My heart is broken. Sending prayers and positive energy your way.
Dianna Cowern
(Levi typing) Yah, the fear in her voice got me really sad as well. Thanks for the support
Dianna Cowern
(Levi typing) I'm seriously speechless about that. So much support.
Dianna Cowern
(Levi typing) Thank you, like I said above, everyone here does so much a support on patreon already I didn't know if I should link it here. But you guys are just the best. Thanks again.
Dianna Cowern
(Levi typing) The only reason I didn't link it here is because it felt odd to be plugging more money raising here on patreon. Maybe that was a misjudgment on my part, but yes for anyone interested the link is here - https://gofund.me/40fa8b46

OMG, poor Dianna! And poor Kyle! When she says, "I can't think anymore", my heart just crumbled.
Hugh Arthur
It is heartbreaking to see how sick she is. So sorry you are all going through this, but, I am glad she has such a great support system.
Gnare
Sending all the best vibes and thoughts Dianna's way ❤
Dimitrij G.
Will keep Diana, Kyle and their family in my prayers. Also dropped a donation on Gofund me. Thank you for letting us know what's going on.
David Strome
OMG - if the person who just donated $10,000 on GoFundMe is on here - you're a hero! wowsers!
SlcBill
Infinity is a small number compared to the love and concern your fans have for you. Be well and safe, please, I am blessed with 7 daughters, you are their role model, there could be none better ...
Justin S.
Appreciate the update. This is definitely heartbreaking. Hoping she can get the help she needs sooner rather than later.

Keep us posted on the Gofundme page!

My heart aches so much. People there, here, everywhere got you, Dianna. Much love to you all.
Mike Schultz
Ack. My heart breaks, and perhaps that was sharing too much! Money heading your way!
Neil Halloran
My heart is among the many that are breaking to see you go through this, Dianna. The loving support you are receiving from your partner, family, and other caregivers is something to behold. I am just so terribly sorry.
Joseph Murphy
No one should have to go through this, and it's even that much more wrong when it happens to such an amazing person as Dianna.
David Strome
It's a public gofundme so I don't think they'll mind it being posted here - https://www.gofundme.com/f/medical-bills-for-dianna-cowern.
Mark Dakins
Whoa!! Long COVID is not supposed to require emergency ambulance rides to the hospital emergency room. Where is the gofund me?
Stephanie Deppe
This is gut wrenching...we love you Dianna, we're rooting for you <3 sending so many hugs
Ryan Snead
It's heartbreaking to learn that a GoFundMe has been set up to cover her medical costs. In the wealthiest country in the world, is that really becoming the insurer of last resort? I don't want to take away attention from Dianna's and Levi's difficult circumstance with that comment. It just hurts that anyone has to go through a terrible chronic illness and then layer a financial tragedy on top of it. Levi, out of my own experience I feel for you having to care for Dianna instead of the both of you living your lives the way you expected. Although we know it will never be the same as before, I believe you both will come through this with grace.
Barry
Damn Covid! Sending virtual hugs to Diana and her support team. Please share the GoFundMe link.
Steve Norby
This breaks my heart - we love her and those around her. Will support in any way possible...thank you for sharing this with us. It must be so hard for all of you - we are all sending love.
Suzanne Strickland
Also, cut what ever costs you need to cut. Most of us here are here to support through it all. So, you aren't going to lose our support.
Phil Stubblefield
Wow, and I thought my Valentine's Day was rough: I contracted the norovirus that's been going around and became violently ill. Unfortunately, my friend, it looks like your day was much, much worse! 😥 Keep taking care of yourself, Dianna, and we'll keep praying for you!
Suzanne Strickland
Is there anything we can do?
Michael Kobb
This sucks. Is she back home now, I hope?
Tim Haddock
💔 (I'm finding it difficult to come up with the right words)
Al Davis
Totally sucks on multiple levels. Significant improvement still totally possible so stay hopeful.
Pete Modreski
So sorry she is still in such rough shape. If you can communicate these posts to her, please tell her that we are all hoping and looking forward to her recovery. Still, of course, sticking with her, as Dianna and as Physics Girl, as her viewers & Patreon supporters. We know you'll hang in there and get well, Diana!
David Strome
I hope Dianna and Kyle know how many people are pulling for her and wishing for her to get better as soon as possible. It's heartbreaking to see her like this when we know how much fire and life she has in her. I don't have any doubt that she'll use that to kick this in the butt and come out stronger. Please tell her we're all holding her in our hearts and that we'll be here when she's ready to return. And you take of your self too, Levi. I'm sure it must be difficult to see such a close friend like this. Take care.
Douglas Boyle
I don't want to see this, it's breaking my heart, I'm crying. 😔
Christopher Kemsley
This is depressing to watch :( I really, really hope she gets better, and soon! I can't imagine how terrified she must be :(
Rob Tai
This situation is breaking my heart. She was such a bright shining light in science education.
Chris Colohan
This totally sucks. Sounds like you all are doing everything possible and taking good care of her. Must be stressful. Hope things improve soon.
Michael Lawless
This is so sad. Diana suffering is so painful to watch. Sending good vibes her way and hoping she gets rest and returns home asap.
Robert and Jacqueline Graham
So sorry to see this. I sure hope she recovers. Her smile and spirit were a large part of what made me become a patron.
