Noting that things “may look fine on the outside looking in through the window of someone’s life,” Bindi stated that “that is not always the case.”
She said she’s “battled for a long time wondering if I should share this journey with you in such a public space,” and shared how she arrived at her decision to do so: “It came down to the responsibility I feel to share my story for other women who need help.”
Her post also directed a serious message to fans.
“Please be gentle & pause before asking me (or any woman) when we’ll be having more children,” she shared. “After all that my body has gone through, I feel tremendously grateful that we have our gorgeous daughter. She feels like our family’s miracle.”
She concluded her post by offering words of understanding to those who are “struggling with a similar story.”
“There’s stigma around this awful disease,” Bindi said. “I’m sharing my story for anyone who reads this & is quietly dealing with pain & no answers. Let this be your validation that your pain is real & you deserve help. Keep searching for answers.”
