And iam here in the US and they wanted me to not even be able to cook and do laundry. My disability effecting my ability to work was not enough of a reason for insurance to cover a wheelchair or power assist
I have eds too
You are really an inspiration ❤ thank you so much for the information 🤝💪🏼 together we can win the battle against Epilepsy. Sending love from India
Thank you so much My daughter has just been diagnosed
❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your video. I have been asking this question my whole life: "is it like a gamble like I have to see whether I am good to start my day?" I tried various methods in tracking what makes my day good and what makes it bad, but I forever camnot find a pattern to it. Your video describes my situation well and I think I found the answer. Even though I am not diagnosed, I think the answer is EDS.
amazing Q&A TH-cam video by the way Ellie
What type of EDS do you have? What do you do to manage your pain? And what job did you find that has worked for you? My daughter is having a lot of pain and struggling with work.
it is fibromyalgia that is muscle tension and pain and pushes your joints and they dislocate because of eds then. due to fibromyalgia normal joints are pushed in same way as eds joints but they are stronger so do not dislocate. it is fibromyalgia to blame (psychological problem). brain fog is due to fatigue due to your psychological problem even before any pain.
This kinda looks like it would be a blast
Awesome job!🎉
so much improvement since the first time!!! super proud ❤
27 my partner of 15 years had to give up working we went to GP they refused to try and find out what was wrong said she was too young to have these issues. shes been hypermobile since she was 13. it wasnt until now 32 years old i confronted her doctors and said has she got more severe form of hypermobility and now we are doing more tests so far the doctors we have used have been awful
I just wanted to thank you for this video I just got a new Wheelchair original frame yesterday and I was not sure how I was going to get it in my car my car is not this big but I think that the backseat is an option! It's a great video thank you again so much
Very nice to have personal info
Have you tried a tens machine? My OT recommended one so got one and I think it's making it worse 😅
Awesome vlog! I just posted a Q&A today! ❤
Ah amazing!!
Do you know what smart drive assists are called in general? I’m looking into getting one but smart drive assists only ship in the UK, and I don’t know what they are called.😅😆 Do you know of any other brands that make them that are good? I don’t know much about wheelchair accessories, and with brain fog it’s very confusing, especially when I don’t have a custom wheelchair, so I need something that works with a basic foldable wheelchair. Don’t sweat it if you don’t have any answers.😅😊
Hi Ruby (Ellie Dad comment here) If you Google... 'Wheelchair Power Add-On', that should get you everything you need. Ellie mainly uses SmartDrive MX2+ (it goes on back of wheelchair. Easy to carry/fit in car. Fantastic for town and walking Ralph, even on hills and gravel paths. The front power assist didn't fit her new wheelchair because of tapered legs. But the front power assist is better for rougher ground and cobbles as it has a bigger wheel. Probably best to visit a store and see how different ones work for you and your chair. Actually...today Ellie is doing that! (to find one for the front).
@@Hoocheleven Thank you, this was very helpful! I appreciate you and Ellie taking the time to help me not only with this but also in deciding on buying a wheelchair, you guys have helped me immensely!😄
@@ruby3200 That's great to hear. Best of luck with it. Always happy to help.
Great video as always, are you bi sexual in real life?
Hi
Thank you for answering my Instagram question on your TH-cam channel video by the way Ellie
Amazing TH-cam video by the way and I really enjoy watching it as well Ellie
David aimes as in holby?
Yes, he played my dad in hollyoaks too
@@SmallandStrong66 awesome
I need a carter and freya return ASAP
I agree. Especially Freya, she was great.
We've seen you in the bikini in previous videos it's no big deal . I hope your having a brill day Ellie love the q&a
Even if she'd posted a million photos in a bikini it doesn't mean she can't refuse a request!
Amazing video cant wait to see you back in hollyoaks soon ❤️ xxx
Well done you 👍, its absolutely fantastic when you do this on a real mountain 🏔️ for a winter holiday with you family or friends or both👍, take care and enjoy yourself.
I’ve booked a trip for January and I can’t wait!!
Very good 😂 you so made me laugh.
Got the update in September that makes it useless? Just warning you, if your smartdrive still works do not update... ❤
Oohhh thanks for letting me know! I don’t believe I have updated it but now I deffo won’t be!
i lost my ability to walk 5 months ago, a major flareup in my sacro and lumbar spine, it happens in my neck, this is my 6th flare up and it has been the worst, ANQUILOSIS SPINDILITIS, its horrible, specially because im alone, absolutley nobody to help me, I do all by myself but with a lot of pain, nobody believes that I have an illness, my family gets mad about it, so fuck them, I will deal with this by myself until the end, doctors are shit, expensive medicine don't work, etc, etc, thanks for the video helps me cope, best wishes.
My gawd, coffee is life. I need to pump the tires on my wheelchair. ugh. Hahahaha, I picked up a Christmas tea latte from David's Tea yesterday. It put me in the holiday spirit then crushed me because Halloween didn't happen yet. LOVING the ski sheets and dinosaur wrapping paper! Haha, the mug is adorable! Sending strength and positive vibes your way! - Bethany
You look fantastic by the way Ellie and amazing videos as well and I really enjoyed watching the video on TH-cam as well
The mug is absolutely adorable! Hopefully you have better luck with command strips than I did lol We love to see the muscle gains! Heck yea what a win
I haven’t tried them yet but I’m really hoping they can hold my pictures up!! I’ve never felt this strong in my arms so I’m very pleased
Love your wheelchair vlogs they’re so helpful! Trying to build confidence to go out with mine ❤
I’m so glad!! That’s exactly why I make these videos x
print wise you could maybe get a theatre related one for your love of theatres!!!
That’s a great idea!! Maybe the national theatre in south bank and theatre royal Drury lane as that’s where I first sang solo
@@SmallandStrong66 that’s a perfect idea!! maybe even the theatre of where you perform when you next do it!!
"i think it might look a little bit like you" - ralph then shakes his head as if to say it doesn't
I swear he speaks English
As a new wheelchair user, thank you so much for making these videos from a WC-using perspective. Please keep them going!! ❤
This video really "lightened Up" my day (yes that was a dad joke sorry lol) great to see that ur making ur flat into a home.
What breeds r your dogs
Ralph is a Cockapoo (official colour apricot). Chester is a Cavapoo...white.
@@Hoocheleven thanks I figured Chester was a cavapoo as I have a black one
Ralph is super cheeky...Chester is super zen
You get better looking every video. Good autumn 🍂
I love all of the clothes you bought. I have a similar style, it’s hard to find clothes that are comfortable material wise and clothes that I don’t over heat in. I usually resort to baggy tshirts and shorts or loose jeans when I have to get dressed. I need new Converse but I can never choose- there are too many pretty options!😫 I really enjoyed this video.❤
I LOVE baggy tops and baggy jeans! Always my go to which is why I’m trying to branch out. I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
Are there any other funding options to get a smart drive I don’t and can’t work right now but feel I’d really benefit from a smartdrive Don’t want to switch to a powerchair as I like to maintain as much strength as possible but I really struggle to go out on my own long distance
Amazing TH-cam vlog video by the way Ellie
Thank you Luke
@@SmallandStrong66 your welcome Ellie'
What a lovely idea! Pizza and crafts sounds perfect 😂❤
Our next evening is going to be actually making the pizzas!
It was lovely seeing you and Isabelle on your TH-cam channel again.
I’m glad you enjoyed
You guys are the cutest! I love your friendship <33
Thank you! That’s so sweet
@@SmallandStrong66 ofc! 💕
You look very seasoned and beautiful
hi ellie im a disabled driver you can get a push n pull lever that attaches under the steering column and fastens to the pedels squeeze it to accelarate push it forward to brake
I tried one of these but we concluded that my arms just weren’t strong enough at that point. I can try again in the future though
Adorable 🥰
