yolanda hadid has been struggling with Lyme Disease for the past several years, and she's been very open and honest about how it has affected her life. While filming "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," she opened up about how she didn't feel like herself. Her ability to speak, read, write, and even watch TV slowly disintegrated and she realized that she was very ill. After searching for an answer, she learned that she was struggling with Lyme disease and that the battle would be hard.
She has revealed to the public through the Bravo show that there is no cure for Lyme disease even though many people struggle with it.
She has revealed that it was devastating for her to learn about the diagnosis as she had three children she had to care for. She explained to them that it was tough on her to even finish the show and she didn't have the energy to film, so she walked out of the reunion special one year to rest up.
Her co-stars didn’t believe her
For months, her "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" co-stars didn't believe her, and they assumed she was possibly faking her illness. The idea of
Munchhausen's surfaced, and she was forced to defend herself. Even though some of her friends didn't believe that she was sick, Yolanda had indeed looked very sick, and she had clearly struggled. Even her marriage to David Foster ended because she was no longer the same person.
Yolanda Hadid has written a book about her struggles, and she opens up about life with Lyme disease. In the book, Hadid makes some shocking revelations about her state of mind, and in one chapter she even reveals that she almost let herself drown. She truly wanted to die, so she didn't have to deal with the illness anymore.
It was the image of her three children that prevented her from drowning that day, and she decided to continue her brave fight. Of course, two of her three children have also been diagnosed with Lyme disease, so they have a similar struggle.
Will suicidal thoughts change people’s minds?
One can imagine that some of her co-stars will feel bad about how they treated her when she was filming "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" as many of them didn't believe her or didn't take her seriously.
Her suicide revelation may be news to many, even her children, as they may not know about her deepest struggles.
As for Yolanda's current state of mind, it sounds like she is in remission from her Lyme disease battle. Yolanda has tried many different treatment options, and she believes that things are going well as she feels much better. While she may never be done her fight completely, it sounds like she's going to continue fighting the last little bit in hopes of having a normal life soon.
Her book will be worth reading for those who question whether this is truly a real thing, as it nearly killed her. The disease ruined her marriage and possibly even her life.
