Opening up.

Bachelor Nation fans are getting to know Daisy on Joey’s season of “The Bachelor,” and on the show, Daisy opened up about her difficult medical history.

She shared with Joey that she became extremely ill from Lyme disease and eventually lost her hearing.

Thankfully, she was able to receive a special treatment in Germany that got her feeling better and recently was able to get a cochlear implant for her hearing loss.

And this week, Daisy took to Instagram on International Cochlear Implant Day where she penned an emotional note about her experience with hearing loss.

Daisy shared photos from the hospital when she got her cochlear implant surgery and wrote, “Losing my hearing has been the loneliest pain I have experienced. I pictured myself in a glass box since I was 15 and I’m pounding on the walls screaming and terrified. People are looking in at me and they can’t hear me. I can’t hear them. I am alone with one of the most dangerous things - my thoughts.”

Daisy shared that she was confused and angry at how she could lose what she loved most — the ability to connect with people.

But overtime, Daisy learned that her hearing loss actually allowed her to connect with people more and in a new way.

The Bachelor Nation star said, “It unlocked the ability to feel more, love more. I thought I was this little girl who grew up and on the way lost herself and who she so badly wanted to be. I realize now I didn’t lose her, I was just a girl who was kind to everyone but herself. Losing my hearing taught me how to fall back in love with myself. I’m not going to say it’s okay, because I would be lying. I’m still coping with that and I know it will take time and understanding. Losing my hearing has given me the ability to look at myself and realize how strong I am, how capable I am, how I have the ability to take something difficult and create something beautiful.”

She said that as difficult as it’s been and as many times she’s wished it away, she now wouldn’t have it any other way.

Daisy said, “I used to go to bed terrified of what tomorrow would sound like, what tomorrow would bring. I’m not scared anymore, I’m excited.”

She went on saying, “I don’t know exactly why this mountain was placed in front of me that looked impossible, but I know it is pushing me towards my purpose every day I decide to show up and live this chaotic beautiful life I was given. Getting a cochlear implant has been well painful, exciting, new, confusing, funny, strange, difficult, frustrating, and beautiful. I wake up learning new sounds every single day.”

Daisy concluded her note saying that while she feels like the “glass box” is still there, the roof is now open and it’s “quite magical” to find the beauty in the unexpected things.
