Good bless u and am with muscular dystrophy can u contact me if possible

Netty Pot time!

I have CMT, I’ve been using a mobility scooter when I’m out and about for over a decade. I honestly cannot even count how many times people have said that or something similar. Recently, at a casino a group of guys came up on me (I was sitting on a stool with the scooter next to me) he literally started to get on the scooter as he was saying can I borrow this. I said a firm NO! Luckily, I don’t ever leave the keys in the scooter when I’m not on it 😉. Normally, I don’t take offense when someone jokes about wanting to use the scooter I just joke along with them.

Fantastic work

are the socks from The Awesome Socks club? i have them too :D so cool to see a nerdfighter in the wild haha

I found it! My sister sent me this on instagram but i don't have instagram so... I'm now a proud subscriber to your channel, binge watching all your videos... Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot

Getting back up doesn't have to look pretty it just has to happen... Different perspectives we end up in sometimes jolt us out of settling for stale.... Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot

That's so cool!

I haven't had the chance to try out any scooters yet... Eventually I'm probably going to need to find one. Thankyou for sharing your experience, I will keep it in mind. My sister found your video explaining the "fork theory" on instagram and showed me. I don't have instagram so I'm here on TH-cam and asking for a favour.... Could you please post the fork theory explanation video on TH-cam? I want to be able to show it to a few different people who are in my life. I want them to understand. I live with a list of chronic health challenges including chronic pain and chronic fatigue syndrome so I'm almost always tired, sore and over it. I'm slowly recovering from being bed bound and now basically house bound with my only trips being to doctors or to do errands, driven by my dad or family friends.

Could you do a video on getting the chair? 42k just sounds crazy.

I've always wished there could be a wheelchair that could lower the seat down to ground level similar to the lift function on many powerchairs. No idea how that would work though!

Wow that chair-locking mechanism was awesome. Way easier than strapping on hooks. Good golly. Your vehicle is amazing and I'm so glad you finally got it. Independence!! 🎉

The turtle tail!!! 🐢 😍😍😍

Congrats on the new job! And the fun accessories :)

Also, gotta constantly do the calculations in advance for how many spoons I'm going to lose and how many pain forks I'm going to gain from any activity I need to do. Thank you for mentioning all the interception / body maintenance forks that are physical stressors. Also "stick a fork in me I'm done" - no please don't. 😂

Looks like a big enough yard to crawl around in anyways. I’m not in a wheel chair but if I was. I would never let it stop me from being me. I had battle buddy get shot and can’t walk again. He came home and started working out what he could and now he’s in the Olympics playing wheel chair basket ball etc. He still goes swimming with us. We go running in the mornings he’s right there rolling along. I remember at first we would always try and help him with everything. Now, we just let him do him. Guess we all had some adjustments to make right? We were only doin it out of carrying and protecting but we realized it held him back from being him. Do you boo boo, let the haters hate. I know I could use more sun myself regardless how I get it!

Yes share!

So please share how you finally got up

Hello ❤ thank you soooo much for your words... I live in France in a fairly mountainous environment. There are quite a few paths with stones or for example just yesterday I went for a very nice little walk (which got me stoned) and at one point there was a big root that you had to step over to get through. I don't know how I'll manage with a wheelchair? and I'm afraid I won't be able to take any more nature walks...? I am afraid of that...

How did you get so wise? I needed to hear this this week.

hi. i love your videos. as a retail employee, as well as a home depot employee, you can always ask for a manager to send you someone to assist you WHILE shopping. As soon as you go into any retail location you can ask management, and they WILL send an associate to help you shop. if you dont want to, totally understandable. i am unsure if you knew that but its totally possible. great video!! if for some reason they say they can't help in that way, you will get yourself the biggest shopping credit of your life awarded to you because that would be awful customer service.

Yaaayy🎉

Want to buy and import in Pakistan please share details

“Even if the person is faking how does it affect you” correct.

I think I’m young and pretty. I was born with cerebral palsy 😂

Uber and Lyft are the worst in terms of denying access. I never know what to do… I usually just give up. Any suggestions?

Hey there! I have cerebral palsy and use a manual wheelchair and a service dog May I just request all folks who use a service dog to NOT have an ID or documentation. Even voluntary identification is harmful to real users of service dogs and can result in denied access. Especially if someone before you used a scam online type registry it really harms all service dog users because you nailed it. THERE IS NO Registry. None. So the more folks use identification papers or cards it harms all of us who have legitimate service dogs. Also I would say petting a service dog puts me in a very vulnerable position. I need my dog to stay focused or I can get hurt. She’s super cute but when she’s not working that’s a perfect time to say hi and pet her. I really love your videos. You’re so much fun to listen to and I enjoy your videos so much. ❤ Sending love :)

I’m a full time wheelchair user and I can’t walk. There was a period when I could walk a little bit. But fifteen minutes per block? Not functioning well. Sarcasm alert here: I know able bodied people who take a subway train from 23rd Street to 125th Street. They can walk, so why do they need to take a train?

Gurl. No way you didn’t know how to edit. What. You nailed it chica. So proud of you. Don’t know you but very proud of you

My god you’re such a joy to listen to. I could listen to you all day every day. ❤

I live on 400 dollars each month. Im so poor and also brown buddy in a chair. I was born with cerebral palsy. My friend pays rent other wise I’d still be homeless. I was homeless from 15 to 28 years old. I can’t afford Netflix other wise I would watch. I grew up in an institution roughly translated as the home for the incurable in third world conditions. I’m so ignorant on the disability rights movement but since coming to the USA every day life has improved. The ada protects me as a manual wheelchair user and service dog user. My biggest question to you would be What concretely do we have left to do. What are the top things you think we can legislate further? I want to get to work on your list in my community now. For example the train stop that takes me into Boston isn’t wheelchair accessible. How do we challenge that with current laws? Thank you for explaining and taking the time and effort to educate us. Sending love and good vibes your way. ❤

I’m down to hang out chica! Thanks for your video and effort and time!❤

Thank you for your video and explanations. I appreciate the time and effort you put into this. Have a lovely day hun ❤

You’re a pleasure to listen to. Thank you.

Soooo spoon theory using forks 🫡

I get how frustrating working with folk rehab can be. I work with state services for the blind in Minnesota and since I’m adult, it’s pretty much vocal rehab and if you don’t use their services within two years, there goes your case.

Love your vibe

I’ll keep an eye out for land by marshes near us ❤

I’ve never been more convinced that I am, in fact… a potato.

I know my visually impaired friends don’t drive, but would pump the gas if I ever needed them to. I’ve been wondering if the pump itself could be automated through buttons to start/stop the flow because squeezing the mechanism is extremely difficult with low mobility hands…

Not sure! I dislike touchscreens popping up everywhere, pumping petrol in the cold sucks enough already, taking your gloves off is extra annoyance. And that tap-to-pay point is in such a strange spot!

Hello, your problem was YOU DID NOT LOOK TOWARD TOYOTA'S BEST MINIVAN OF THE WORLD - TOYOTA SIENNA 2021 FORWARD. NO ONE SHOULD LOOK ANYWHERE OTHER THAN TOYOTA 👍

Sniper no sniping!! 😂

So happy for you!

These delays have got to be deliberate. This is more than just incompetence and inadequate staffing. This is intentional procedural delay to wear folks with disabilities out, so they will just give up and go away. In the meantime, our government gives free benefits away to non- citizens, who don't have to document anything. How does any American, regardless of their political persuasion, think that any of this is good and right?

I feel like you could have made it over the bridge. But if you didn't make it, things would be so bad that's its definitely not worth the risk. Aaron cam to the rescue!

I TOO HAVE HAD PEOPLE ASK TO PRAY, I DO NOT NEED SYMPATHY.

BTW your nails look great ;D
