Bahl, who posts to more than 1.8 million followers, said the ordeal drained her physically, mentally and emotionally but also gave her a new perspective on how fragile and precious life is. She previously described the immediate aftermath of her diagnosis as “nothing short of a nightmare.”
Her husband, plastic surgeon Mike Chiodo, whom she married in August 2023, stepped in to help with her fashion brand The Bar, joined her at appointments and took a larger role in content so she could tell her story. Bahl called the milestone the end of a chapter she will carry forever and shared a message of continued faith and hope.
