Thank you for your kind words and comments.

Hey everyone, first off we'd like to address and thank everyone for your support here on Patreon. We can't believe how much support is coming in, and we know it will really help Dianna and Kyle during this time.

Dianna is still crashing from the smallest of activities, so she is not allowed to read things online anymore. But once a day, a family member has picked up the task of reading Dianna some of the nicest and most kind things people are messaging or commenting. The meaningful things you guys say are just too good to not let her experience. We love reading and telling her as many of these nice messages and comments that we can. They mean the world to her, and to us for that matter. I can't wait for the day she's able to tell you guys herself how much this means to her.

This image was taken a couple weeks ago when I(Levi) got to see and wave to Dianna for the first time since December. Not exaggerating. I'm going to go over again this week and do some filming, so stay tuned for a Dianna update. She is stable at the moment, but still can't move much.

Thank you guys so so so much.

Thank you for your kind words and comments.

Big huge shoutout to all the people doing anything to help! 🙏🏼

We’re all in your corner. Continue to persevere and believe in your ability too overcome this thing!

James Mosquera

Nora, FYI for many of us dealing with ME/CFS, lights and certain levels of sounds can cause us to feel overwhelmed and anxious. You may want to check out Jennifer Brea’s Ted Talk. She explains her personal journey with ME/CFS well.

Gloria Baca

I am not sure if were read my last message, but Diana find your rage. My rage is the only thing that gets me out of bed each day.

I, too, asked for prayers at Disciples of Christ

NoBaloney Mahoney

From all of Dianna's COULD YOU SURVIVE THE MOVIES? family at AMPLE, we are endlessly grateful for the spirit, fun and love that you brought to working with us on the series. Your turn as Doc Brown is for the ages, and beyond that your kind warmth on set, and that incredible time we got to spend together actually shooting on the Universal backlot at the Clocktower remains one of the most special memories for all of us. While it was only a few way too short days of filming, you inspired us, your work continues to inspire us, and you are forever part of our story for which we feel very, very lucky. Sending you our love and 1.2 gigawatts!! Your eternal fans Phil and Ari and everyone at AMPLE.

Phil Lott

Others have said it far better than I can, but I’ve admired Dianna and her content for several years. I’ve seen the recent updates and wanted to provide some token of support by finally becoming a Patreon. It’s the least I can do in the circumstances to give something back. Dianna, there are a so many of us out here that are wishing you the very best for a full and speedy recovery.

Neill Adshead

I too have joined to support a very beautiful spirit that has piqued my interest in learning new things both in this world and beyond. I have put your name on our temple prayer roll here in Reno, NV @ The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Names remain on the prayer rolls for two weeks, and I will continue to put your name on it well after you are back up and showing us more of the amazing science that fills your life with such joy! Thank you so very much for passing that zeal to us with such passion… we miss it and look forward to seeing your infectious smile soon!

Dale N Harding

You’re in my thoughts. I’m a Patreon just for you. Fight the good fight.

Janine Terrill

Hang in there champ!

Micke Mike Bonnier

You’re a beautiful soul and inspirational! Prayers for your recovery. God Bless.

PDes

Kia ora Dianna. I’ve signed up to support you. I’m sure you have the best possible care around you, and I want you to get better. So come on PG, we’re on your side and rooting for you - all the way from NZ. XOX

Chaise Te Hira

I've been watching your channel for the better part of 6 or 7 years now. Took a small hiatus from YouTube for a few months to only find this sad news! I immediately started a Patreon with you to help you through. You've given me so much joy and entertainment through the years and I wish you the best!

Ernest Rivera

I'm happy to see a smile on her face! Take care of her, I want people like Dianna around, making content I can share with my 6 year old daughters.

Adam Howell

I hope you feel better soon! Your smile and science brighten my day.

Mike Day

I hope you get well soon!

Salseng M.

Go kick covid in the ass! Feel better soon!

K Y

A bunch of strangers on the internet really give a damn about you! I'm grateful for your creations and your persistence in surviving.

Paul John Showalter

Get well soon. I love your physics and I want more. Love you!

Paul Burgess

I’m so grateful that you have Kyle Diana! My prayers are for your continued progress in healing and beating this dammed virus!

Peter Kessler

I really do hope you have a speedy recovery!

Brian Miller

hi dianna and team. i joined as im on my own health journey and now how it can be so draining. i hope you get better soon i been loving your back date of content

Bunny

I wish you had higher tiers, I went to your highest monthly tier. I feel this question is intrusive, but does she have medical insurance? She's my favorite scientist, up there with Michio Kaku. She made it fun and easy to understand. I wish her the best.

zudasworld

Wishing Dianna peace, comfort and strength. Same for her husband, family and friends taking care of her. Even now, we learn from Dianna - about love and humanity. Hope she is soon back to teaching us about the world by video.

Chris Barry

We're so sorry you're going throught this - all of you! We love your videos and have learned so much from you. I'm sure you have all the support you need, but we're in San Diego if you, or your family, need help with something.

windee freireich

Same here, Roy. She is one of my favorite CCs.

David Thompson

Stay positive Dianna! We are all wishing you well!

James Lupton

Became a patreon just to try to send some help while you get through this, hoping beyond hope that you feel better soon and recover from this! One of my favourite videos of yours was the swimming pool vortex one, totally blew my mind and I subscribed instantly. You think about science in a lot of the same ways and with the same enthusiasm I feel like I do, and I really enjoy watching your content. I’m sure you’ll be back on your feet in no time and I can’t wait to see what you come up with next! We’re all here for you!

Roy

We're in your corner Diana! You helped me get through the pandemic and you have helped so many others get interested in science and excited about it all over again. If my little bit per month helps you and your family, then I am thrilled to know I am making a difference for you all

Joe Boggio

Get well Soon Dianna! I pray for you almost everyday. I have learned so much physics from you that too in a really cool way, can’t thank you enough for all the knowledge you have given me and the curiosity you sparked within me. The only way I can return that favour is by joining patreon and supporting you in the time of crisis, so there I joined. Hope you get well soon!

Mihir Saspara

I think of you every day, Dianna! Sending you strength and positive vibes from Spain! Keep it up!

Kisha

Get well soon. Thoughts and prayers too. BTW, I hope you've researched CoQ10. Ask your health providers. Lotsa love to you and your community from Toronto.

Douglas Mark

Hi Dianna, when you get better can you do an episode on the physic(al) power of positive emotions like hope, love, compassion?

Shawn Smith

Get well soon Dianna.

Hébert Family

I don't have a lot to say but I had to subscribe after seeing the latest video. I wish I could do more right now

Shaun Cooley

"She is stable at the moment" thats the news I needed to hear 🤧

tr7zw

So sorry that me/cfs has been so rough :/ I hope one day there is something doctors can do to help you all dealing with this crap :( I hope you recover more each day ❤️ If you dont mind me asking how does the laying in the dark + earplugs + facemask work/help? I have seen many do that, is it to help with resting?

Nora

Hi Dianna, just wanted to send you solidarity. I've had me/cfs since 2010 but was only diagnosed in 2009 (I had a more graduated onset). I'm so sorry you're going through this, life has pulled the rug out from under you. I know there's not a lot that anyone can say, but improvements do happen with this disease, just very slowly. I'm in a much better place than I was two years ago but it's taken a lot of rest and support from loved ones. I hope you're able to get back to the things you enjoy in life over time. It's taken a while, but I'm able to do some small things like watch a bit of TV, listen to audiobooks, and even a little bit of drawing and colouring lately. These things weren't possible before, just long days of laying in the dark, earplugs in, facemask on, curtains closed. I had to just lean into the quiet which was easier some days than others. I've been thinking of you daily, Dianna, and wish the best for your recovery. <3

Nicola Woods

Not to sound repetitive, but your approach to helping the lay person understand physics is a great gift. Thanks for sharing this gift with us and I look forward to you getting better and do what you do so well!

cmldad

You’ll recover very soon, I wish. 💪👍

Willy Kang

Dianna, you were a shining beacon during our time at MIT. Smile never left your face, even though we were the upperclassmen who liked to give you and everyone else a hard time with our humor. We could not be more certain that you will make a full recovery and cannot wait to celebrate with you very soon! Much love, Aziz Albahar writing from Kuwait.

Abdulaziz Albahar

Get well soon!

Sai

Get well soon. Finally I got covid after 2.7 years, and it was awful and took a long time to clear but I sort of forgot that it doesn't clear for everyone. Bless you I loved your videos in the short time in ~2020 when I discovered your work

Donald Gillies

I've recently seen what's been going on via YouTube. I am not sure why or how this has happened. I served in Iraq, several years, and have not seen anyone in the position that you are now. I've lost, I've endured, and have found hope in others. You're doing this now. It's tough, you'll get through, we are all brothers and sisters in the fight. It's going to be hard, but you'll make it. We all have to make our own choices, fight our own battles, and the fields that they are fought in. I know you got this. Wake up and feel the fresh air and sunlight..It's there waiting........

Keith Collins

I've thoroughly enjoyed your presentations and expanded my understanding of how the world works. You have opened my eyes to things I have never known and look forward to seeing you healthy again. You have an amazing husband, family and friends. There is so much love given by them that I know you appreciate it. It is a reflection of who you are and what a caring person you are. Your kindness in giving of your time as a teacher to many of us out here extends the love, enthusiasm and understanding you have inside you to many who follow you. May you stay strong and get through this challenge and become even stronger than before. The world needs more people like you and your family to show the rest of us that the world is such an amazing place. The world is a better place because of you and those around you. Sending all my love and positivity from Washington, Stephen Carolin

Stephen Carolin

You are a shining light lovely. Keep fighting, you are so strong ❤️ sending love to Diannas family and friends, it must be so difficult for you all ❤️

Sarah McKelvey

My family and I are wishing the speediest recovery to Dianna! Thank you so much, Levi, for taking care of her and sharing updates with us!

sts_pro

Our hearts go out to you, keep fighting the battle, Diana! You'll get stronger each day. I'm a kidney transplant survivor, so I know there can always be setbacks, don't sweat it and you'll be back physicsing before you know it!

Tim Nelson

I’m glad to hear that she’s doing better! Stay strong. She’ll be better soon!

Manuel Jenkin

Dianna, you are truly a gift 🥹 your passion and kindness are palpable and I have full faith that you will get through this. Please don’t give up. Rest as long as you can. We’ll be here when you return ❤️

Ashley Morillo

Although I can't say I've been an active follower, I'm a huge science geek who's been subscribed to Physics Girl for a very long time and has always loved watching. Dianna is just so fun, engaging, entertaining, and likeable, she's got an incredible talent as a storyteller and communicator. The world needs more awesome science advocates like her. I'm hoping, wishing, and praying for her to get well soon!!

Alex Golembeski ツ

Hey your photo is adorable! . Sending you lots of positively charged quantum particles To surround you and get you all healed up. Great work Kyle, You hang in there as well. No higher calling brother, Keep taking care of yourself so you can care for Diana as well.

Kevin Steglich

Diana!!! When you come back your community is going to be here! Present! We are happy to support you now! Take your time, get strong. You are not alone!

Alfredo Eleazar Orozco Quesada

❤️

Kooster

Praying for your recovery ❤️

Loni and Al

She's lucky to have you Kyle. I really hope she gets better soon and that our patreon donations are helping with her care. The world is too dark without her light and enthusiasm in it.

Andrew Henderson

It is so good to see you smile, Dianna! You keep resting. Need to get strong enough to hassle Simone. Levi, please give Kyle another hug (air hug, probably) for us.

Gena@LuvBJones

Her smile is golden. From now on, May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields ...

gregg r

Diana, I'm so glad your friend reached out to let us know how you are and to let us know Patreon would be helpful. I have had ME/CFS for 41 years so I know how hard what you're going through is. I am much more stable since pacing all physical, cognitive and social activity into tiny bits with many flat quiet rests in between. It makes such a difference in the quality of my life. You can get through this really bad time and reach a more stable state. New treatments are around the corner. There is so much reason to hope. You are so loved. Your channel has been such a ray of light in my quite circumscribed life. I am so grateful. I am holding you in solidarity as we live the best possible life we can in the moment. Hugs, Rebecca

RebeccaOtis

A casual YT viewer here. Looking forward to your comeback, You got this Diana! F*ck COVID.

Jonathan lelis

Joining in with love for physics and everyone involved in this fight. Things won't always be this hard. And while they are know that you have the love and support of the community that you built.

Stacey Kohler

You're welcome I hope you feel better soon,Dianna.

Jonathan Hart

You rock it I've only recently discovered the Channel and I'm so excited. Mud puddles, smelly permafrost caves, nuclear submarines and space, what more could you ask for? Today I told my colleagues about the wandering mud puddle and they all said I was crazy, how could you be so excited about a puddle? Hopefully I will wait for everyone to come back in good health. In the meantime I will watch all the other videos and wait patiently for the return. I send you all the good energy I can spare, you will make it. Greetings from Switzerland, Bern PS: I was in Iceland 3 weeks ago, I also saw mud puddles, they stank and were hot. I like mud, mud is fun. :-)

Tania P.

Dianna should, if able, work on her mental condition. Chronic illnesses take a toll on our body and our mind. I have been chronically ill since birth and found out that to heal our bodies we need to start with our mind. Due to chronic illnesses our mind is in a constant state of panic and full of questions even dark thoughts. That wont let us heal. I know Diannas situation was/is bad but maybe some mind healing will help her recover better. As I am getting older I find that mental health affects your ability to recover. I hope this helps even a little.

Nora

KEEP FIGHTING! You are a literal rockstar in all of our books and are taking on more than I could ever imagine; physically and mentally! You are one of the main reasons/inspirations that I continue to expand my knowledge and experience with Physics from the day I stumbled upon your YouTube channel until now. I still continue to share your channel with so many people and am extra proud whenever my favorite science nerds are fellow females (much love to the males but gotta cheer for my ladies in a field that isn't as well represented as it will eventually be). Sending you healthy hugs and healing heart vibrations! And also another round of applause and hugs to your husband/caretaker! I've recently been "gifted" that role for my grandmother and mother and it's no easy job, especially on top of caretaking for yourself and having to see a loved one so close to you go through this challenging time...I hope you both will be able to rest and adventure together very soon! <3

Judith A Mueller

Dianna, we love you and are praying for your full recovery! You are a strong person. You can do it. You're an inspiration to all of us. Love your smile and personality. ♥️♥️ Bless you Kyle for being such a wonderful husband and taking such good care of her. Your family is a wonderful support for you. God bless you all.

Judith A Mueller

Get well soon, Dianna :)

Christian Krabbe

Stay strong! Miss Rona can go and suuuuck it! You can do this! Much love and support for you and Kyle from Slovakia!

Lukáš Miklo

Hahaha very good!

Kieran Le Cam

Keep fighting ! Force your body to accept this isn't over! Don't give in to fear! Keep up the FIGHT! Stay focused. You have power. Much love, be smart and strong!

Kieran Le Cam

Get better. We miss you

William Loewy

Thank you for keeping us updated. I continue to pray that Dianna gets better. I am so glad that she and Kyle are getting lots of support. She is such an inspiration to people and such a wonderful bright light in the world. I know that she likes bad jokes, so, in the hopes this cheers her up, this is one I heard recently. Why does Norway put barcodes on the sides of their naval vessels? So that when they come into port they can Scan-da-navi-an 😊

Hugh Arthur

Get well young one you’re the best 👍🏻

Pedro Cruz

We live in a world run largely by arrogant people who take too seriously everything but the truth. You, Diana, are full of joy and a humble but brilliant beacon guiding folks to the freedom and pleasure of objective reality. You’re needed, and loved.

Kurt Stallings

Long may you run!

Dan Kennelly

Dianna -- Just to state the obvious, there is a LOT of love out here for you, and it is very real. We all send our very best prayers, thoughts and mojo to you.

Garrett TeSelle

Dianna, I really wish all the best for you. As someone who has had CFS/ME for the past 10 years, I very much can relate to your struggle. It might feel impossible right now, but over time your energy levels may get better. Please don't lose hope. It is a waiting game. It is a lesson in becoming uber-zen. You are wonderful. Rest and heal, rest and heal, rest and heal. <3

Julie Sweetin

We all look forward to your full recovery. The interwebs is just not the same without you here.

Hrogthor

Thanks for the update, let us know if we can help in any way.

blacia

Diana, you have a profound gift of describing science in a way that makes it accessible to everyone. Your channel was a major factor in me finally deciding to go back to school and begin my comp sci degree… at age 39. And I’m actually doing good! Thank you.

Thomas Smith

Thanks for the update! Really pulling for you all to get through this with no truly permanent issues remaining. Big psychic hug from all your fans!!! Uuuuuurk!!!!

Lee Perry

Dianna, all you seem to have is friends, all of whom love you; wish everyone felt that way about me. Be that impossible, in the USA. I too want you healthy, happy, successful. You know, pure warm fuzzies. But first, heal.

dino@deanlm.com

you're awesome Dianna, such an inspiration to girls, women, and people all around the world, and in so many ways :) i'm so happy to see that you have such an amazing support network of family and friends and I believe in in you <3

nocaps

My thoughts and prayers go out to you. You have done so much to reach people and now I hope we can all reach you. Looking forward to the day when you're back at teaching us all and inspiring other young women to take up their passions and make a difference, just as you have made a difference!

Ed Buford

Hoping for a speedy recovery so that you can get back to being with your family and friends and doing what you love most.

CheyenneWills

I hope you start feeling better soon. I also follow You Grow Girl (Gayla Trail). She is a gardener in Canada. She also has ME/CFS from a virus she got before Covid was in the radar. She has her good days and bad days. Still can't work consistently. She finally found a doctor that seems to have helped some. Hope you find some help. I know food is important in managing her disease...some foods trigger her symptoms and make them worse..due to histamine content. But I don't know all the details. Hope you can find someone that can help and start feeling better soon.

Jill Lloyd

Diana- you are amazing! You got this, it’s a minor setback and before you know it you will make a full recovery. Make your space one of hope, positive mindset, and strength.

Kit Lammers

I am sending Love vibrations through the Quantum Field of Energy to the infinit possibilities of Dianna's future/present recovery. Since this has already taken place she can be Happy Physic'sing knowing the world will soon be blessed with the return of our 'Physic's Girl'.

Trinidad Bustos

Dianna, I'm considerably older than you, but your videos and enthusiasm you put into them bring out the curious child in me who still loves physics. I have a 2 year old daughter who I hope will show the same interest and will love your videos as much as I do (when her attention span is more than that of a gnat). I'm praying for you, Levi, and your family, and that you get better soon.

cult_hero13

Diana is truly one of the most informative and fun youtubers out there I really hope she gets well soon ❤️

KraszyFox 12

Dianna, I am so sorry to see you going through this. I have been praying for you ever since I learned of your condition. I want you to know I have used your videos in helping my children learn and understand physics concepts. Your knowledge and understanding of physics plus your boundless enthusiasm have helped motivate my kids and have demonstrated just how fun the subject of physics can be. I can’t imagine how many young boys and girls (especially girls) you have gotten excited for physics and now see math and science from a different perspective. You are an amazingly gifted person and I wish you a most speedy recovery and can’t wait to see you up and about again. God bless!

Steven Kerckhof

Please please please heal. I donated to her go fund me & signed up for her patreon. She’s taught me a lot about the fun aspects of physics. She’s just so beautiful inside & out and she had such a great passion. I really wish she didn’t have to go through this.

Marvin Tran

So glad to see a smile. I hope you're feeling better and better every day.

Don

I also joined after your friends video. Hoping and praying for your full recovery. Wishing you the best!

Tim Tittle

I'm so happy to see you smile, sending positive vibes and love

Kyle Harkness

I’ve been a YouTube nerd for years. Your channel, amongst several others, inspired me to go back to school. At a major university, in physics class for post graduate physics; I was shocked to see that they had us watching your videos! I was so thankful that I’d already seen your content and was familiar with ideas that were new to those uninitiated 😉. You have literally made physicsing happy and accessible to me and so many others. It’s not just about interesting topics and fun ideas, you are expanding the psyche of the future by enabling science and reason to penetrate pop culture for an era in which rational thinking is dwindling! Thank you for so much and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need/want anything from a lumberjack/pilot from utah. Love you and please feel better soon!

Blake Wright

Just joined after watching video from Simone on your channel. Please do not get mad at her after you get better ;) See you and wishes best of health <3

Jakub Urbanski

Hey Dianna, joining your Patreon is the least I can do for you considering all the time I’ve spent enjoying your content over the years for free. I will be here as long as it takes. Lots of love to you, Kyle and the rest of your support network from here in the UK.

Ben Dean

We love you! Please get well soon!

Paul

Oh man, I'm hurting for you, brings tears to my eyes. What a terrible disease this is for some of us. I really hope the best for you Diana. Miss you!

Paul Sinnema

It is so strange seeing you with your usual vitality totally absent. I hope that you and your family and friends can help you find it again.

Philip Cresswell

I'd like to quote Captain Sully Sullenberger: “For 42 years, I’ve been making small, regular deposits in this bank of experience, education, and training. On January 15, the balance was sufficient so that I could make a very large withdrawal.” You have clearly made a very long term regular investment in education, enthusiasm, and good will to all of us. We are here in force to help you make this withdrawal. Best wishes and restful sleep.

Mike McCoy

To such a wonderful person, please take all the time it takes to get healthy. You are truly in our thoughts and prayers and as well for Kyle and all your devoted friends and family. 🙏🤗💯

Joseph Lapinski

Thank you for the updates, Levi; please keep them coming as we get worried

ApocalypseMo

It's good to see you smiling, Dianna. Rest up and stay strong, you and your loved ones who are taking such good care of you. Those of us who are also suffering from long covid are standing right alongside you, drawing strength from your courage and lending you our own strength as well (what little we may have). Hope to see you well again someday, so take your time. Also, thank you Levi for this update!

Savy M

We are still physicing

Wild_Lee_Coyote

Thank you for your inspiration for all those years. Take your time and I hope you get well!

Amy

Thank you for the update and as always love to you all.

Mike Pezaro

Dianna, you don't know me and it's statistically improbable that you ever will. I'm a grown man with two kids who have toughened me and my wife up emotionally. Hearing about your current state brought me to tears. I don't know if you'll get better, it's not for me to say (Qué será, será), but if you do, I'll be happy to shed more tears. They will be tears of joy.

Aaron Loes

We love and miss you, Dianna! Please make a full recovery!! The world needs you!!!

Jer

As a physicist I have long admired your work and watching with my kids. Explaining what we do, how we think, and our curiosity, is hugely important, and you have been shining at it. We are wishing you get back to full heath soon, and to the job you clearly love doing.

Roni Harnik

Thanks for being the Bill Nye of my adulthood. Your videos and y'all rock! We're rooting for you!

Leon Chan

Thank you so much for the update. When I saw the video posted about Dianna’s condition, I unexpectedly wept. I can’t imagine how tough something like this can be for Dianna and Kyle and every friend and family member. To the extent that it can be helpful, please know that none of you are alone and that even brief glimpses of bright moments like this are like a glass of water in the middle of a desert. Maybe it’s because today was a rough day for me personally but this update genuinely made me happy. Thank you for sharing and thank you for all the years of brilliant and inspirational videos.

Declan DeSart

Oh it's *so great* to see her smiling! Thinking about you daily, Dianna!

David Strome

Thank you so much for reading our well wishes to her however much you could. Dianna has and continues to mean so much to us for these years. Now it’s our turn to do something for her. We love you Physics Girl.💜 And we love you her family and friends suffering alongside her and taking such extreme care of her.💜

J. Andrew Medina

Thank you for the update. I love seeing Dianna's smile in this picture. I met Dianna at an event around this time last year. It was an honor and highlight of my night. (Seeing Endeavor was a distant second highlight of my night.) Sending more love, positive vibes, and well wishes for Dianna, Kyle, and all those caring for her.

Charles Aukai

I absolutely love this channel and Diana has been a teacher to me and my science students, as well as a terrific role model to my daughters. We're all pulling for you, Diana! Happy physicsing!!!!

Andrew Bennett

Dianna, you have such a bright light inside of you. Right now it may be struggling to shine past the opacity of this condition, but even in the photo above it’s clearly visible. Much love and kindest wishes to you and those that love you.

Chris C.

Happy to do whatever small bit I can. Her content has been such a delight for my two boys and I as they've grown over the last few years!

Tom Meadows

Levi, thanks so much for the update. Glad to know we have Dianna’s ear 😀. Lots of love pours her way every day from this amazing community. And to everyone who has the privilege of being there to support Dianna and Kyle! You all are awesome and deserve our prayers of love and support as well. So crucial in this time. Blessings all around 🙏👏

MPotter

Thanks for the update, I'm not sure if Dianna has ever heard this poem before, but I felt like it could help: Invictus BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

Jeffrey Williams

Milos, best of luck to you. If you need help sorting through which resources are nonsense and which are evidence based I’m happy to help :)

Kevin Liam O'Donnell

A beam of energy can always be redirected. Sending all i can so your light burns brightly. Clapping and repeating I believe in Physics Girl too. Tinkerbelle won't mind ;)

Rumpel Stilzchen

This is so heartening to hear! I hope your journey to recovery only goes up from here.

Sara

It’s a magical world out there … look forward to having you explain it to us soon :)

Andisen

Add another prayer to the pile to help you heal and return to "work." Love you. Ps. my grandfather was an MIT graduate.

Richard Morton

G'day from Australia ! I am praying for you every day. Hope you will get well soon !

Josimar Baptistelli

Dianna & Kyle, I am sending you all the love and healing energy I can and praying for your recovery every day. I used to treat your sister and her kids from Truckee and long ago I graduated from your alma mater in Course VI. I’m with you all the way. 🙏🏻💖

Stephen Barr

Great to see you're getting some sun, Dianna. By the way, I am pleased to inform you that you have an article on Polish Wikipedia, and the English one has developed a bit recently 🙂. By the way, Levi, if you could upload a high-quality picture or two of Diana to Wikimedia, that would be great. It would help in making the articles better. Photos with other VIPs or from official ceremony would be great. The photo would have to be licensed under CC-BY-SA or similar. Search for "Category:Dianna Cowern".

Maciej Jaros

Through all that pain a smile! I know in my heart you will be back with your lovely and fun physics insights. I know it must feel so far away right now - but I know you will get there. Our prayers are with you and your wonderful friends and amazing husband. Sending you live and light Diana-

Dianna, how you do physics, science and maths is uplifting and ever so happy. Enjoy the many heartfelt affirmations flowing back to you, your family and team. Great to enjoy a slice of PG news on Pi day. Cheers!

Jill

So good to see a smile! Dianna you are the light of the Physics world.

Brian Burleigh

So good to see a smile! Keep focusing on recovery. We are all here rooting for your recovery!

Suzanne Strickland

I hope you feel better soon,Dianna.

Jonathan Hart

Here's hoping for a full recovery soon, Dianna. I'm sure this experience is going to trigger some amazing science explanations, once you're up for it.

Michael Sperry

Same!

Michael Kobb

Feel better Dianna, and thank you Levi and the team for sticking with taking care of her and the channel. We know this task is overwhelming, but I am confident that everyone will pull through with flying colors! Get well soon, Dianna!

Johnathan M.

I know you'll pull through this. I'm happy to be able to repay you in a small way for your amazing educational content and for inspiring women in stem.

Michael Gibbons

I really am looking forward to the day when you, Dianna, can get back to doing normal things again. Hang in there, that day will come.

Nigel D Perels

It’s so heartwarming to see Diana’s smile! ❤️

Get better soon, Dianna! We all love you!

STFU FFS (Martín)

Diana, you mean so much, to me. Please get better... I hope it will all go away soon. I am watching you since so many years that I can't even remember. I learned so much from you! My company success is based on knowledge that I developed watching your videos. When I saw Simone explaining I was crying so much for your pain that you are going through. So I had to contribute, there would be no company of my without you. You are the creative director of my company!!! I am sending all the love from Poland and power for you to go through it. We are all with you Diana!!!

brodowski@op.pl

We love you, Dianna, can't wait to get an update from you personally in the near future. Get well. Miss your physicsgirl presence. We need you back!

Joshua Langweil

I am glad to continue to hear from you (the team) occasionally and look forward to hearing from Dianna directly when she is able. Dianna, get well ASAP Everyone else, keep up the good work; keep us informed; and, if there is anything the rest of us can do to help, let us know!

Mark Dakins

If any kind of activity causes worsening of neurological symptoms, it all points to the metabolic underpinnings of the disease. Here is a story of a person who had a similar condition and was able to fully recover: https://www.hormonesmatter.com/recovering-from-post-covid-mitochondrial-dysfunction/

Shadow Master

so insanely glad to hear she's stable! no matter what happens, we'll have your backs. you've got this, and this little English gay is BEAMING support over to all of y'all! <3

Starchy

Hey Diana, stop laying around, you’ve got physicking to do! Just kidding. Focus on you, getting better, your fantastic friends and always there husband. You’ve made the world a brighter place; we’ll wait for your challenges to pass.

Brian Thorstad

While I appreciate the update, at risk of the stating the obvious, please focus on your health.

Arnold de Leon

You'll be physicsing happily again in no time, Diana!

Harley

Good to hear that she is stable, and I hope that means recovery is close at hand. Dianna - focus on your health and happiness and everyone who loves you. Don't overthink it. :)

Michael Flood

Thanks for the update, Levi! Dianna, get better soon. Your sunny vibe helps to make the world a better place. You are missed and loved.

Jeffrey Wilson

Nice

Mark A Fischer

Thank you so much for the update! We’ve been so worried about her & hate seeing her suffer. We are happy to keep supporting her. Anything to help keep her afloat. She’s brought us so much joy with all of her videos over the years. We will be here for Dianna as long as she needs us & we will always care about her. Be strong, y’all! We got you! ♥️♥️

SomeGirl EH

I hope Diana gets better soon. We sure miss her delightful physics lessons.

Dave Smith

Stay strong Dianna! 😊 We all can't wait to see that first update that you are sitting up for at least a short amount of time. It's going to be a marathon of small steps to recovery, but you have a group of people lining the path to recovery. We got you.

Darren Demis

As long and she is stable our hearts are filled with happiness for Dianna ❤️ Sending so much love to Dianna and we have not forgotten Kyle, family, friends and those closest to Dianna from Estonia 🇪🇪❤️Diannas videos have always calmed my anxiousness and stress down because they keep my mind focused. We all hope Dianna keeps making progress and soon will be able to move more and get outside of the house ❤️❤️

Nora

Hey Diana - you got this! So happy that you’re on the mend and I look forward to seeing you on Patreon as soon as you are ready!

John Young

Hi Dianna, I have been a fan of yours for a really long time. Despite being a failed engineering student turned accountant I always enjoyed physics and really love how you put things in terms that every day people can understand. So glad you are doing just a little bit better and looking forward to seeing that bright smile again sharing your love of physics with the world. Hang in there we miss you!

Jason Jeter

May you repair soon Dianna. And just so you know - one of our ferrets *loves* the sound of your voice and gets all excited in the style of a ferret when she hears one of your YouTube videos.

steve crandall

Get better! That's an order.

John

I am very sorry that you and your family are going through this health crisis and I prayer that you have a speedy recovery. Keep fighting and know that you have a lot of people out here rooting for you.

WILLIAM SCHAEFFER

So happy to hear things are seeing an upswing, no matter how small. Please remember to be kind to yourselves and remember that you deserve to be loved and cared for no matter who you are or what you do. Be safe, be kind, and above all, be loved.

Cell113

Diana, like you I am very much a need. One of my first experiences with NASA was a family friend was an engineer at the Huntsville facility during the Apollo missions and was kind enough to give me a tour of the facility. This was just after the moon landing. It was so AWESOME especially to little boy who had been watching the whole program on television. It definitely helped to set my path in the direction of Geophysics.

WILLIAM SCHAEFFER

Dear Kyle, I just wanted to let you know you are in our prayers. Being the support of the one we love when is sick is among the most difficult things in life.

Sonia Castro

I started a biochem PhD program in August, and this week I officially joined my lab and am starting work on my research project. I believe it is in a large part thanks to Diana and other creators like her that I realized science was a career option I wanted to pursue. I am sending positive thoughts and prayers for Diana's recovery!

Rachelle Nelson

Okay Dianna, you’ve got this. Slow and steady. It’s a biological physics problem, and I’m sure the best minds are working on how to help you get healthy again. Of course we all love you! ❤️When I recently discovered your health condition I was in shock to be honest, but then turned to Patreon and GoFundMe to help you and Kyle out during this period. You have given us so many enjoyable physics lessons and explorations over the years with your inquisitive ways and delightful insights. It’s the least any of us can do to help you and Kyle while you make a long-term recovery. You have done so much for us just being you, and all your fans hold you close to their hearts. Rest and recover, and we will still be here for you no matter how long it takes. ❤️

Tom Schroeder

I wish you a speedy recovery. I love your content. Thanks for being such a great entertainer/educator

I didn't even subscribe until now

Ash

Wish you all the best ❤️

John Coumerilh

Thanks for the update and I hope Dianna's family and friends are staying rested too, don't forget to eat and all that. Rest well Dianna, and don't stress. We all sit eagerly waiting your return but your wellbeing takes priority, we will wait as long as you need and get back to happy physicsing in no time :)

Stephanie Pace

Dear Diana, I also suffer from me/CFS and I've just started my therapy after almost 2 year wait. I'm the only one lieing in bed during the therapy but I'm not giving up and I'm pushing on through! I know there is a light on the other side of this tunnel for both of us. We just have to be patient and inch our way out of this black hole. Anyway, we have more chance than someone escaping the event horizont ,so we have slowly to gain momentum to fly away (my crappy physics joke for today). I wish you speedy recovery and never lose that smile of yours! Kind regards, Milos

Milos Zikic

Love to see her smile! We all hope for a full recovery, how long it may take. And thanks for the updates!

Christoph S.

All the love and healing for Diana. I really hope she gets through this as soon as possible, and back to her fantastic self.

Lane Pilbin

I saw a comment on another Patreon post a while ago that was in response to the fact that the regular Patreon perks are on hold while Dianna heals, and I can't say it any better than they did: the only Patreon perk I care about is seeing Dianna get better. My husband and I love her channel, and we hope that all of our collective support will allow her and her family to get what they need.

Jem Kloor

Get well soon. I can't wait to see your next video on water slowing down light or sound creating heat. Or something else I didn't think I wanted to know but really did.

Frank Valtierra

Please make your fight back to a full recovery a three part episode of physics girl. 'Rona strong, Dianna stronger!

Jamie W Young

Sending the best from California!

David Smith

Thinking about you and a speedy recovery.

Dennis Weddig

We're all rooting for you!

Thor Tallmon

Such a positive update and cannot tell you how much it means to hear that she is feeling a little better. Thank you so much Levi for including us in what are such difficult times for Dianna and her family. Hope our thoughts and love help and Dianna is back on her feel in no time

Vikram Bhat

Sending more and more love. Just a small story suggestion for better days. Chinchillas look small, slow, and cuddly. This is far FAR from the truth. They are the strongest, smartest, fastest little creatures I have ever witnessed. They tend to blur the lines of what you'd believe them capable. Amazing creatures! FYI, our little Chinchilla passed suddenly and unexpectedly last night. Cherish every second, every moment, every smile, every laugh, every fart, every poop. ... Ummm. Well that went a little too far, maybe. Hugs.

Gerald Kichok

as a fellow Course VII grad (cough-several-cough-years ago), I suggest your channel for young people and old to learn and enjoy your contagious enthusiasm!

Duncan Hughes

From one Long Hauler to another, sending big healing vibes and radical rest to Dianna ❤️‍🩹 Thank you for these updates

Centralperk

Dianna has a fighter's brain a supportive family and a brave husband, it is a matter of time until she gets back on her feet and puts all of that behind her ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Shadi Abboud

Thanks so much for the update! As others have said, it is *so* nice to see a hint of Dianna's fabulous smile again! We'll keep praying, and you keep healing, my friend! 🧡 Oh, and Happy Pi Day! 😁 π π π ...

Phil Stubblefield

I've absolutely loved your videos, you are an inspiration to my daughter who definitely wants to be a scientist!

Page Sparks

While Dianna is healing, a HUGE thanks to her friends and family. We're all worried/rooting for Dianna, but I know from experience how hard it is for caregivers as well. You are loved and appreciated!

Michael Kolozsvari

Thank you so much for the update, I am so happy she gets to hear some of the great comments. Hopping Diana feels better every day and wishing strength to all the family and friends working so hard to support her. Sending good thoughts and vibes to you all.

Jason Phillips

Diana has been one of my favorite and most informative goto YouTubers for a long time. It's tragic what has happened to her and I hope she recovers fully and quickly. I'm so glad you reached out requesting Patreon support. I am happy to pay for the content she has provided to date in order to give back to her a little when she has spent years giving to the world.

Brian Murphy

Much love and support from Singapore. Stay positive and looking forward to hearing how you are progressing.

Matthew Campbell

Thank you for the update! Praying that things start turning around for Dianna soon 🙏

Nic Knol

Archeology is the study of circles... because they're arc-y Pi Day Joke!!

Keep on healing! Looking forward to a life long learning relationship. That sounds weird ... Strictly platonic, life long .... keep on healing !!!

Leonard Moore

Just wishing all the best 💜

Douglas Boyle

Dianna- sending you all the healing vibes and happy thoughts! You mean so much to us and to women in science, and women and kids who are just science fans. Keep fighting, we’re all here- waiting to celebrate with you in the future!

Heidi

Does my heart good to see Diana’s smiling face! Keep getting better, girl! 💜

Danny Yarbrough

Endless love and prayers continue 💜

DoctorX17

Thank you Levi for the update and wishing Diana and loved ones strength and looking forward to the updates...

Will

Thanks so much for letting us know of Dianna’s condition. There are so many people out here cheering for her.

Doug Ingram

Glad she is well! Critical that quality of rest is maintained. Quantity is not as important, though it is tempting to sleep all day. Baby steps! Science based resources available to you when you’re ready :)

Kevin Liam O'Donnell

Oh also, I'm sorry we are unable to get through all the direct messages coming in. So many people have joined in the past week, that I hope you all know that they are greatly appreciated! I'll make sure to tell Dianna and Kyle about them next time I see them.

Dianna Cowern
