Completing 100 Days of Treatment
US model Bella Hadid presents a creation during the Moschino catwalk show for the Fall/Winter 2022/2023 collection on the third day of the Milan Fashion Week in Milan on February 24, 2022.
TMZ reported that Bella Hadid already completed over 100 days of intense medical treatment for her Lyme disease.
She said that the "100+ days" of Lyme disease treatment is all worth it if she can have a lifetime of spreading love to the world.
For those who are not familiar with Lyme disease, CDC explained that this illness is common in the United States.
The health organization said that most cases of Lyme disease are curable. However, if it is left untreated, it can spread to the heart, the nervous system, as well as the joints.
CDC added that if you want to avoid getting this disease, you can use insect repellent and pesticides since ticks carry the illness.
This just shows how serious Bella Hadid's illness is. As of writing, the supermodel is doing quite well in her condition.
She thanked her family, friends, co-workers, and other people that supported her in her battle.
"I'll be back when I'm ready. I miss you all so much. I love you all so much," said the supermodel.
