An Update On Dianna's Health

We just wanted to give you an update on Dianna’s health, since she’s been sick for a while and may not be returning for longer than we previously thought.

Her science videos are postponed until she can make a full recovery. We really appreciate everyone's support here on her channel. We know Dianna wishes she could be here making videos and happily physicsing, but right now she needs to stay in bed and away from work until she makes a full recovery.

Hi Everyone. Please ignore any comments or direct messages of users asking for donations that claim to either be, or work for Dianna. There are some spam/scammers *posing* as physics girl to ask for money. The Physics Girl team will never reach out directly through comments or messages to ask for donations of any kind. Thank you.

I hope she recovers much earlier and surprise us all, but in the mean time, she is constantly on my mind, with all the best wishes.

Quick shout-out to Dianna's husband. Being a full-time caregiver and watching a loved one suffer is ROUGH, and I hope he's getting the help he needs.

Dianna has played a significant part in my daughter’s love for science. I can’t thank her enough for that. I hope she recovers soon and gets back to inspiring a new generation of kids to fall in love with science. Praying for her speedy recovery.

Everyday as a teenager, i used to watch her videos after my school. I recently started earning (not much but yea) and i feel like this is the best contribution i am making till now.

This breaks my heart. We need more people in the world like Dianna. I hope this donation can make a small difference.

I met Dianna briefly at Vidcon in 2019. The idea of such a fun, energetic person having to endure all this is truly heartbreaking. Thank you so much for taking care of her.
Hang in there.

I had no idea you were sick, Dianna. This awful disease has affected too many of us in so many different ways. For me, it took a month & a half in a coma and the donation of another human's lungs. I hope you read this soon, and I look forward to seeing more videos from you when you get better, because you're going to get better.

Prayed for you for healing, Diana. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I have suffered from ME and fatigue for years, and last November my recovery had been so great that the diagnosis was retracted. I hope the same will happen for you. Get well, Physicsgirl. It is great to see that you are in the care of people who love you very much.

Simone, this was very... you. Many people clearly hold you and Dianna in high regard, and I know we'll do everything we can to help. <3

I found out about this channel and Dianna when I was just watching YouTube videos at 3am. In those few short videos, I learned so much more than I could've expected and it filled me with so much joy and curiosity. Then I finally find her channel again only for my heart to break to know that this is happening to her. I pray that she will recover and that she'll be better than ever, and I am so thankful she has so many wonderful people around her looking out for her and providing for her. Hopefully one day I'll open up YouTube to see that she's better and she can teach us about the wonder of this world again.

Never seen this channel before, but I'm always willing to help out where it's needed. Stay strong, Dianna! Love and light to you, your family, and your friends!

After dropping out of high school and spending ten years of my life working in restaurants, I graduated with a BS in electrical engineering in 2020. When school was tough and I was doubting myself, Simone and Diana's videos helped me stay positive and passionate. They contributed to my new life. I'm happy to contribute to theirs.

[J-Rohan]

We need passionate people like Dianna for the advancement of physics. Her passion can inspire and motivate others to contribute to the field. Sending love & positive energy for a quick recovery!

[idkjustchangingmyname]

Hope recovery is going well. I am praying for y’all.

I have ME/CFS, and it can be debilitating. I just want to let you know that a year and a half ago, I was stuck in bed and my family had to look after me because I couldn't do anything for myself. Now I'm in my first year of my degree, and I'm slowly gaining back my independence. It's not perfect and recovery isn't easy, but it's definitely possible and it does get better <3

Dear dianna,
I am girl and physics is my core subject.
People use to stereotype physics as a subject for males and the scarcity of females doing something in physics compliments this stereotypical thought. One day, i searched through the net writing, "physics female teacher" on search bar and guess what! I got you....i felt so good and motivated seeing you breaking the stereotype and so it's really heartbreaking for me to see you in this condition 😔 .
The one and only popular girl who is in love with physics❤️....please don't ever lose hope dear...i know, you and your family and friends are going through tough time...but physics was also not that easy as you made it look....if you can make that easy, you can make this too...please please please don't ever lose hope...we need you...please be back of love to you and to your family and friends....FROM INDIA.

[CodeNameKriss]

Please get well soon Dianna! This breaks my heart seeing such a wonderful human-being go through something that feels like all of this shouldn't happen to someone as wonderful as you! Hang in there! Everyone here is rooting for you and for your recovery!

Hi, I’m new to this channel. I have had a couple of scares with covid within my family but I’ve never witnessed something this debilitating. I know it isn’t much, but I wanted to show that I support you all on the road to recovery. Family and friends too, it’s not easy to have something like this happen and not be able to do anything about it. I’m praying for her recovery to speed up.
