Many things are forbidden to people with arthritis: I was deprived of active sports, for example. I loved to run, but now I can’t. But I do yoga on a regular basis. In general, I strongly spit on the disease and most often I do what I want: I climb the rocks, I jump, I jump. But if my joints start to hurt, I slow down and take care of myself.
And because of RA, I got some fears. The first and most important thing is that I will not have a child. It is forbidden to get pregnant on my drugs, and many doctors discourage girls with RA from giving birth. But even if I give birth, there is a risk that arthritis will be transmitted to the child genetically. I would not want him to experience the same pain as I do.
I am also afraid that I will forget how to be compassionate. I react very aggressively to complaints like: “Oh, I have a difficult day, I had a fight with a guy.” And you’re like, “Damn, dude, you walk fine. What right do you have to whine? ” Although I know that this is not possible. Everyone has their own problems, and what is easy for one is difficult for another.

I am driving Telegram channel about modeling life, it’s called Fabb Models’ life. Parents, children, grandmothers often write to me there. They are asked to speak with their relatives who have just been diagnosed. And I call them up. These are really always very personal stories. I try to open up and say: “You will go through this, you are not alone, everything will be fine.” If possible, I propose to meet. To look at me, to see that I walk normally, move. Tell me that I do sports and that everything can be fine. And when they see me live, see that it is possible to live with this disease, it inspires a desire to move on.
