The model, 26, shared a carousel of images on Instagram on Sunday showing snippets of her medical records, and snapshots of herself receiving treatment and hospital care.

She described her long-running ordeal, including 100+ days of Lyme, chronic disease , co infection treatment, almost 15 years of invisible suffering.

Hadid was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012, along with her brother Anwar Hadid and her mother Yolanda Hadid. She was a teenager at the time.

The little me that suffered would be so proud of grown me for not giving up on myself, Bella Hadid wrote in her post.

Thankful to my mommy for keeping all of my medical records, sticking by me , never leaving my side, protecting, supporting , but most of all, believing me through all of this.

Living in this state, worsening with time and work while trying to make myself, my family and the people who support me, proud, had taken a toll on me in ways I cant really explain, she continued.

I am okay and you do not have to worry, she added, noting that she would go through it all again to get to this exact moment Im in right now, with all of you, finally healthy.

It made me who I am today, she said.
