Hello, and welcome to this project!

My name is Jamie and I wanted to talk about myself for a bit to give context on what this page will be about. Firstly, a little bit of who I am, and why this page exists. (Also apologies on if this page isn’t looking good, first time really customizing a tumblr page like this.)

I’m a 22 year old student in the UK (specifically Northern Ireland) and I’ve been a fan of dodie’s music, vlogs and kind spirit for the last 4 years. Throughout those years, I was also diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease which has caused me to miss out a lot of stuff over those time, including dodie’s concerts. Not being able to go because my health declined at the last minute for both Belfast shows broke my heart every single time. However, I want to make a change to that.

My Crohn’s story is a bit vanilla. Got diagnosed in 2015, operated on to remove part of my bowels the following month, and been slowly climbing and falling both physically and mentally. However, it links into the aim of this page really nicely.

In short, this tumblr page is to document my health recovery journey and hopefully end at her concert in Dublin in March. I was able to get a standing ticket meaning I will be putting in the work until then to make sure I can go. It’s going to be an interesting few months, and I would be glad for you all to join me! It will be a MASSIVE milestone for me to even be there with the surgery, different medications taken and emotional events unfolded since then. It’ll mean to me that I’ve somewhat fully recovered to live my life again without any anxieties.



The plan is to write a post every Friday starting in 2019, giving updates, thoughts on situations that I’ve been through. I hope everyone has a lovely Christmas and I will see you all in the new year!



All the best,





Jamie
