Research interest not aligning with narrative

Hello~ I like to lurk on this sub and I see a lot of people talking about the importance of narratives and how it can make/break an application which made me sorta neurotic abt mine.

I'm just a sophomore so idk jack abt this but the narrative I sorta had in mind was abt my rare chronic illness and how it got me interested in this field but my area of research has nothing to do with my disease..? The thing is I also (oddly) rlly like my research and am personally much more invested my research topic than my disease. My clinical experience also has no ties to my narrative and was sorta felt like a checkbox for me-

If anyone has any advice on how I could tie these together I would rlly appreciate it T-T
