Thank you Mark for the opportunity to share my story
So much wisdom! Thank you for sharing your story. ❤️
God bless you so sorry for what you went through ❤❤
Blessings upon Blessings. ❤
I’m super into you and your story, but I’d love to know more about your dog tbh. Lol. In all seriousness, I’ve almost fallen asleep at the wheel. I worked healthcare for almost 12 years and I’m a tattoo artist now in order to fulfill my true dreams and to protect myself from that type of overwork. You’re a pretty dope dude and I’m glad you had Buster to help you get to where you are ❤
Your a lovely young man 👍 all the very best to you,respect from the UK 🇬🇧
This man was very physically handsome before, but hearing him speak, his inner self is even more beautiful. His strength and positive attitude are an inspiration.
i completely agree. his attractiveness transcends his physical appearance
Quit objectifying him you perv!!!
You say that but I bet 99% of you would still not date him or give him a chance.
@@donlimbargo5865 you’re an incel

One of the most, if not the most, impressive interviews on this channel. For many people, three friends and a dog are all you need.
Great comment.
*one friend!
More friends than I have, so I’d say he’s doing alright ❤
Just dogs...people...ewww.
"Sad days are learning days". I will always remember this.
this stuck with me too.
I completely agree!!!
Wow...i want to put this quote somewhere I can see it every day
Fuck yes ! Me too ❤❤❤❤
@@bryantgarza that's a very mature statement!
Don’t suffer from depression, go outside. Pet your dog. Thanks Joe, I needed to hear that.
Amazing spirit💘
I needed it, too.
Hell yeah i just sat in the grass and read half a book listening to gangster rap after pickin up sea creatures at the low tide, using depression as an activity is pointless and I wish someone had told me that before I spent a lot of my life that way.
Depression is a mental illness that's related to a chemical imbalance, not just being sad.
Animals are the greatest.
Safe to say this guy is mentally stronger than everyone in the comment section and he might not know it himself but his internal strength is incredible 👍🏻
Even you?
@@None-y2f i think so. I would be crushed and who knows what else. I admire him for his inner strength
He must have an amazing family, and not to forget his Dog. Best of luck to him & them ❤️❤️❤️.
"the more I get to know people, the more I love my dog".
Well said! I totally agree. The young man is quite unique and mature in his outlook and wisdom.
Never seen a face transplant recipient that can talk that good. His talking alone is making him appear pretty normal. I'm glad that you are still with us, dude.
They've really come a long way since the first face transplants. The look and the amount of movement he has for it being so recent is amazing. He'll look better and better. The fact that face transplants are a thing at all still blows my mind.
He looks and talks great
He will be back to normal when the swelling goes . Nice guy he deserves it
What a survivor! Can't imagine going through so much suffering. I turn 66 today and complain about wrinkles. No more complaining from me. God bless you.
Happy Birthday 🎂
@@dakotahays2836 thank you. At least it's lovely weather in Cape Town today.
Happy birthday love ❤ Yeah seeing someone push through this amount of pain & disfigurement really is inspiring. Puts things into perspective. God bless 🙏
Happy Birthday 🎉
Happy Birthday❤hope you have a beautiful magical day 🌻💗🥰
What a beautiful, beautiful boy, wise beyond his years and a blessing to everyone who hears him. God bless him.
He says "it was my lucky day" bc he survived. So many people would just focus on the negative and think of it as their worst day. This young man is an inspiration.
Absolutely 💯🙏🏾
Laita dwelled far too much on the negativity of the accident in this interview. Repeatedly asked the same simplistic question that got the same response. It would be devastating to experience although there's a whole lifetime in front of Joe Dimeo and his incredible strong personality.
Poor effort on Laita's behalf, came across like a start of the week, 8am Monday effort.
He should take up discgolf as a hobby.
No such thing as luck. God bless you. Jesus saves sinners
Bless his heart. He could be so bitter, but he's so positive and glad to be alive. ..and he loves his dog. What a sweetheart. (Ann)
Are you letting us know Micheal wouldn't have called him "sweetheart", Ann?😊
I agree. 😊
I'm sure it helps that he has a very supportive girlfriend. I've seen this dude's stuff on Instagram a time or two and I'm fully convinced she's there for the fame, but one of the most common ways people with disfigurement go out is suicide because of the alienation of looking different, so at the very least she's keeping dude going.
Yes..I agree. He is truly a beautiful soul. I wish him all the best in his life.
@@ktcooki276 Actually, I am using Michaels phone😊 Pretty sure he would agree with me, (Ann)
I mean it’s his fault for driving tired 🥱 so he wouldn’t be able to be mad at anyone but himself
My best friend fell asleep at the wheel and died. Joe is a walking miracle that he survived and also an inspiration to us all.
This young man brings tears to my eye's! My son Joshua was an organ donor at 21 year's young when he passed. You soon forget that tissue transplant is part of that. I have no doubt this young man will go far in life! Bless you and all you do! My son saved 7 lives.
I have a donor's tissues and bones in my right arm. It has changed my life and I can use my arm normally again after 40 years. I am grateful to donors.
@@Timberon That is amazing! I'm so happy you were able to gain function of your arm. It's nothing less than a miracle what modern medicine and the selfless donors can do. My son became one a year before he passed. So, when he was on life support he already made the difficult decision to be a tissue and organ donor. I wish you continued blessings ♥ ♥
I'm Sorry for your Loss but I Thank You for being So Strong. God Bless You !
Beautiful and wonderful ❤
Your son was a hero.
Dude seriously this guy has brought a tear to my eye.
He’s so smart and positive and inspirational… what an absolute legend
I absolutely agree with you!
It’s crazy I broke my back and paralyzed and feel the same was as this guy. My doctor said are you depressed and I said no, I have bad days and get out of them. I think it’s normal to have good and bad days. Been very blessed to have been able to stay positive for as long as I have now. God bless this man.
Every day is a wonderful gift from God. I know, being a cancer patient for the second time.
@@brennadickinson2920 you’ve got this I know it’s not easy but if anyone can get through it it’s you. God bless
The love and powerful one liner :
“She’s not a nurse. She’s just my MOM”❤️
She is both nurse and mom.
That got me. In many ways, we are the best nurses because we possess the most important characteristic necessary, the HEART.
@@sharonhare4835 and I can pretty much guarantee she loved doing what mom's do best, taking care of their babies, whatever age. Other than the suffering he has endured, I doubt she regrets any of this, the opportunity to help Joe and would not hesitate to take care of him for the rest of his life if that were necessary (which it will not be). His parents must be very fine people to raise a man of such incredible character and strength.
He'll be fine and flourish because he is a very solid human being. Man, he was one very good-looking kid before that wasn't he? Still, he does not look so bad now and apparently, he will regain a lot of his original looks when the swelling subsides.... not that looks matter so much in the end.
@@jaonmarymccormack3078 No, he said just a mom. Not a nurse at all.
That comment brought a tear to my eye ❤
Losing any number of friends because of an accident is a tragedy, but those 3 or 4 friends that stuck around are the real ones and are worth so much more than all the others who left. What a strong young man, may you enjoy many of the cheeseburgers you said you like to eat. Every little thing should be treasured, glad you made it
Yes those 3 or 4 sound amazing 👏
And also happy he had his dog by his side who gave him unconditional love!!! Dogs are absolutely the best friends!!!♥️🐾♥️
Man that’s sad. Good friend of mine just passed in a car accident, and I would’ve never not been his friend if he would’ve survived in this manner.. but, that’s 20 years old friendship.
Everyone fights a battle we know nothing about. So be kind /respectful- always. You are strong my young dude. Best of luck with your recovery. I am helluva impressed with your positive attitude.
Unfortunately, it's really common for people to back away from friends/family/partners when they get injured or sick
*Now **_THIS_** is who you should start a GoFundMe for. I'd donate in a heartbeat!! What a positive, courageous young man.*
Exactly. He'd actually use it appropriately
Whats wrong with the other people? I dont like your comment.
I'm a burn survivor and struggled with self acceptance for most of my life even though my injuries weren't as severe as his. Joe has given me such a blueprint for how I want my mental health to look like. He's so amazing.
He is seriously such an inspiration. I'm about 5 years post-burn. 2nd and 3rd degree grease burns to my face and several stitches, and you can hardly tell now, but I still dwell on it. This man is the goal of positive mental health.
I went to hs with kids that had burns, at first I tried not to look, but he said go ahead and look so I did, it kinda made me feel more relaxed , I got to know him as a person, he was funny, smart, a really nice person, pretty soon, I forgot his burns, I didn't see those things, it hurt me to see the way people would look at him , and look away, or avoid him, if they took the time to talk to him , they would have seen a beautiful person. The body is only the wrapper on the gift
@@hannahorme7114glad you’re ok !!!
My son is a burn survivor so I understand your pain 😢 it’s hard especially as a mother so I can relate to his mom ❤ im glad your okay god bless you and Joe
Inspirational young man. Your heart is beautiful and you are an attractive young gentleman after all this. My cousin was burned very bad and I don't even see her scars. When someone gets to know you , it's amazing how that happens. It is always good to know who your friends are. I know you do have sad days but you can be so encouraging to someone else who needs it. Many blessings to you.
“She’s just a mom” when he said that l laughed. As a mom, let me tell you she would walk the ends of the earth for her son. Bless him and his mom. 🙏🙏🙏she raised a good man.
One thing that kept crossing my mind was somebody raised this boy right!!
him: the worst part was my mom had to take care of me
his mom i'm sure: the best part was at least as a mom I was there to take care of him
@@thecaptainsnark 💯!
Nothing will ever compare to the love I experienced and deep connection with my 1st and only child. ❤🥰
Reference: Mama & Elder in training!
Incredibly strong, insightful, and inspiring young man. Poor kid man...he's dealing with it better than 99.999% of the population would though. Truly moving episode. I'm SO happy to hear he has a girlfriend!! He deserves it and more. I wish him all the best in this life, and I hope his swelling went down as well ✊
"Just a mom" is like saying : a superhero helped take care of me.
Love his relationship with his dog, Buster! My dog helped me immensely when my husband died. So cool that they have each other.
He is a warrior like no other. This guy has more balls than anyone I have ever met or seen.
@@DubElementMusicnb cares loser
🙏💙
A warrior is the best way to put it, true gladiator
Well said.
you've already said that about like 20 other people on this channel
What a nice lad. You can see the difference that having 2 good parents can make to your character.
Governments don't want us to have this. They want single parent families.
It’s so important
🎉Unfortunatly sometimes it doesnt
He is an amazing young man, but there are many amazing people out there that are raised by single parents.
@@raeannewatson2807 Exactly! That was what I was about to say. There are also terrible people who had two good parents.
He didn't mention the double hand transplant. I loved hearing his positive outlook as a result of such a tragedy. He is far stronger than I could ever be!
He's truly amazing. I can't even imagine looking in the mirror and seeing someone else's face.
Same.
I am currently struggling in life with depression, anxiety, shame, guilt - this made me completely humble myself a bit and realize I am just complaining when in reality I have so much to be grateful for. This man is such an inspiration
Sometimes it is hard to see all we have and how lucky we really are. Life is simple really, if we allow it to be. Love and peace ❤
A lot of us are struggling during this time - and I am no exception. C-PTSD, untreated chronic long-term depression and suddenly, unexpectedly a complete neurological breakdown in my mid-50s (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis + another as yet undiagnosed condition that presents a lot like late-stage Parkinson’s) and the fiduciary fallout of suddenly being unable to function… after what had been a really almost preternaturally blessed life…. And I have to battle it daily.
I am only here to say - it’s crazy difficult, and sometimes seems impossible, or at least not worth the effort - but it’s a major hurdle overcome for you to be able to honestly assess, and well elucidate the challenges of life.
I encourage you to be gentle and compassionate towards yourself - this is often one of the more difficult aspects of healing - and, although you don’t know me from Adam - you are welcome to contact me anytime if you need to talk.
Just follow the links to my profile, you can find contact deets there. No strings, no agenda, just a willing ear with no judgement or strings attached… just a guy who understands the battle. I wish you all the best. Cheers.
So you don't have depression or anxiety because you can't just shut it off. That's not how it works. You will be depressed and anxious again tomorrow and for the rest of your life. 😂
@@user-zv8be4sx7myou’re a delight.
Yes only the injuries that are visible are real.
His willingness to accept things for what they are is so inspiring
Hey Joe, I'm Roe! I'm also living in NJ. I just want to say that you inspire me greatly! Thank you for sharing your story with Mark! I love you, Mark! This story happens to be a breath of fresh air in comparison to others that don't have as good of an outcome! ❤
Bring this young man back in a year! Love to see the continuation of his recovery process.
He's on TT!
@@jenniferpangallo8947what's TT?
@@jenniferpangallo8947 not all of us are on, use or think of TT.
What's his @
I agree! Bring him back please. 🙌🤩
“People will judge you whatever you look like” is so true😢
Tbh the surgery does not look bad. He looks good dude. And his spirit and brain are still there in perfect tact. Good for him. I want a book and public speeches immediately.
Yes!! He is here for a reason!! 🙏
He is so humble, parents raised a beautiful child ❤
What a beautiful soul this young man has. He’s a winner at life.
This.... YESSSSSSSS😇😇😇🙏🏼🔥♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️💖💜🔥♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️♥️💜🔥🔥💖💖🔥♥️🙏🏼😇😇😇
This guy is an absolute inspiration, his attitude towards life is beautiful
This kid has by far the best attitude I've ever seen. He will have a very blessed life
If he's ready, this guy can definitely be an inspirational speaker.
ya, sure.
He can barely even hold a conversation with Mark, how tf he gonna monologue?? Lol
He really should … wonderful soul ❤
@Joseph_DiMeo Really, give this some consideration. You have inspired me in one single short video. God Bless you Joe, keep healing.
@@michaell5026 or maybe a carnival sideshow
I lost my left leg in a motorcycle accident in 2004 at the age of 20. Obviously i cant begin to imagine what this young man has gone through. But i do understand the mental trauma that comes along with a life changing injury at such a young age. Even 20 years later the mental scars still bother me way way worse than the physical trauma. This young man is a tough as hell and his attitude is awesome. Keep it up bro.
im envious of this guys mental strength, outlook on life and attitude. respect
you're envious because you don't feel loved. Your family does not make you feel loved. You lack a sense of belonging. "Feeling" loved and valued is what gives you mental strength. If you are abused and emotionally neglected, you will not have resilience.
@@BigIndianBindi-jy1cz good job figuring out that people are usually envious of that which they don't have. Gold star for you ⭐
You hit the nail on the head my friend 😊!!!!!
Mental stability! People may look and think “poor guy” but to have their mental health so on track would be an incredible goal for anyone x
Most positive and bright attitude I've ever heard. Bright future, great parents. Much love Joe!
What a warrior!!!!!!! I can't imagine the pain and the long road of rehab he has come through!!!
the fact that i just fell asleep at the wheel , totaled my car and wasn’t injured or unconscious. and had the nerve to be mad and had to tell myself how much worse it could of been . so the perspective on this is mind blowing rn . he’s so strong.
i veered off and hit a pole
Wow this was my story over 2 years ago. And my car was totaled and I ended up rear ending another person.
I can totally feeel the dog situation..no matter what..your dog will always love you and care for you!
I wish I could have his positivity.
Miraculous!
Burn pain is so intense. Very strong young man.
Agreed on wishing I could have…actually even HALF of his positivity! When I hear of or see burn victims I think about how painful it is when I burn my hand on the stove or with a curling iron. Can’t even imagine 🙏🏻
Thank you for finding Joe Dimeo and interviewing him. I would love to see an update interview eventually. To hear Joe say "people are going to judge you no matter what you look like" is an important lesson. Those words changed me. What an inspiration to the world. I hope his healing journey goes well and life treats him well.
Please do an update on him!
Wow such a nice strong lad,I hope his life gets better as he heals.
Incredibly strong, insightful, and inspiring young man. Poor kid man...he's dealing with it better than 99.999% of the population would though. Truly moving episode. I'm SO happy to hear he has a girlfriend!! He deserves it and more. I wish him all the best in this life, and I hope his swelling went down as well ✊
Imagine what the world would be like if we all had the same mindset as this young man. He’s truly inspiring.
My God, Joe is probably one of the most well balanced, kind and positive humans I've ever encountered.
What a wonderful attitude he has given his circumstances. Bless his heart. ❤
Hold your head high brother. Your mission on life is just getting started. Never forget that. You are worth your weight in gold in the lifetime. So honored to hear your story. Prayers for you from the bluegrass state.
What an amazing guy, I have a bad attitude all the time about little stupid things. This guy has such an amazing attitude, made myself feel a bit ashamed. Joe, if you see this comment, I think you are amazing and you have an amazing message. Keep going!
Absolutely love not only your honesty - cuz I can definitely relate - but your self-awareness that it’s something which needs changing. Thank YOU for sharing also
4:20 what’s even the point of putting pictures up there if you’re gonna blur the entire thing?
Exactly what I was about to say!! It's the most irritating thing.
Theres another edit for his main website where he shows more.
What I was wondering. Why post them
It was originally shown he must of went back and edited it
Possibly a TH-cam requirement
80% burns unimaginable pain what an inspiration he is to all ❤
Statistically, he defies all odds. What an incredibly resilient young man.
Joe should be a professional motivational speaker... he's already motivated me.
Absolutely! Possibly a Ted talk on Gratitude 😌💪🏼
Dogs can really impact a persons life, especially a rescue. Buster is a Hero.
Yes. Exactly. My rescue saved me. I had her from 25 years old to 40 years old. I will always love her.
Something similar happened only a couple of yrs ago to my step sister. She just graduated college. She was on her way home from work late at night was in dead stop traffic. A tractor trailer driver going fast slammed into the back of her car. It exploded on impact. She burned to death & was left unidentifiable without outside means. No one helped. They just watched. She was 26 & one of the most gentle, kindest people I ever met.
Sunflowers were her favorite.

What an incredible attitude this guy has. Listening to him talk about the comfort his dog brings him in his darker days nearly brought tears to my eyes. Wish him the best
Dog backwards is god
I don't understand why anyone would say negative mean things to you. This accident & transplant happened to you not them, your an inspiration.
I'm in awe of this young man. He's incredibly positive and lacking in self pity wherein most people would just give up. His family sound absolutely wonderful, which reflects in his lovely disposition
Bless him abundantly.
He’s got such a great attitude. Like this is what it is. It makes me so grateful for my life.
It seems like the interviewer expects him to be having a lot harder time about his appearance, but it doesn't seem to affect Joe much at all. This is the most inspiring interview I've heard in a while. Joe has a Purpose, and he is living it. That's why he's doing so well, considering. He doesn't pity himself at all. What a strong soul. ❤
Absolutely 1 of the most impressive human beings on the planet. His grace is exquisite. He is the epitome of inspiration. There are billions of beings on this planet, some disguised in human form. This is an authentic aware and evolved human being. I am so grateful to have seen and heard him.💜
What a survivor. so optimistic, wishing you all the best.
Even if he had some bitterness, he'd be one helluva warrior, but the fact that he is so positive, he's inspirational.
@@B_Bodziak 💯
You have my deepest respect and admiration!
You are a courage young man.
With your positive attitude you will go far💜
I hope money can be raised for this poor guy. He deserves it. So positive
He may need money. The plastic surgery is not cosmetic bud, it would br covered by insurance.

Nothing can replace a dog’s love and the bond between dog and man… everything can be wrong, but if you still got your dog by your side, it really ain’t that bad… beautiful thing. Much love Jeff! Thanks for giving hope and perspective to everyone out there.
Absolutely!
I hope Joe's infections clear up and I'm guessing when the swelling goes down it's going to make a big difference. He sounds like a nice guy. Good luck to Joe and I'd love to see a follow up when the swelling goes down. With his attitude, he's going to be just fine.
People like Joe are one in a million. What an amazing human being.
What an amazing young man. A huge reminder, everybody has a story, please be kind to people, you never know what someone has been through.
Everyone who goes through a traumatic experience such as this has one of two decisions to make. To let the experience control you or you control what happened to you. I’m glad you chose to be the one in control. You are such an inspiration.
What a champion! Thanks for talking to us ❤
If half of us had Joe's attitude, what a better place our world would be, so inspirational. A wise soul indeed! All the best Joe, may life continue to thrive for you!
I dont know you personally, but i feel blessed because I needed to know God loves us no matter what the circumstances. Thank you for your testimony. God Bless you.
Hi Mark - please do a follow up with Joe as his journey progresses, and let us know when he gets his t-shirt company off the ground. I’d love to buy some of his merch. Thanks!
Yeah, better than focusing on that Rebecca
Need more stories like these, makes you thankful for what you have and haven't had to go through. Joe, keep your head up. You're inspiring to others.
He is so humble & precious. I feel better having heard his story. His outlook is so positive & I have a feeling he's gonna get completely through this and show the world what he can accomplish ❤
I have never commented on a TH-cam video, and I watch all of Mark's. Joe's loving kindness, and positivity, is truly inspiring. Thank you.
No comment on any of the Whitaker’s videos? 😆
What an incredible human being.
Bravo young man. Bravo.
He really is incredible and strong!!!
God bless him 🙏 ❤️
I'm amazed how good he really looks, especially the pictures when the swelling is down. Crazy how far we have come that a human can go through an accident like that, survive, then get a new face and hands, multiple areas of skin, and all of it useful. Plus have such a great personality and attitude towards life still. Really an incredible guy, hopefully he's got a long happy life in front of him.
"Everything happens for a reason, I just have to figure out what this reason's for." I am so inspired and humbled by this sentence. You are amazing.
PS Where can I buy a t-shirt?
I’ve been watching Marks amazing channel for years now and I have to say, this is the most amazing person I’ve ever seen. I’ve been a professional nurse for 30 years on the psychiatric side there are so many things all of us can learn from this wonderful person ❤
Lovely person. Wish I knew more people like him.
Also-I'm taking his advice.
So many people would have used this sweet guy's story to smoke pounds of crack. But this guy, nope. He just loves his dog, pizza, and cheeseburgers. He knows better than to drive sleepy now. "Everyone is gonna judge you no matter what you look like."
I love how Mark was leading him in the questions down a path where we all expected one answer and he totally blew us all away with positivity. ❤
Too right. Was trying for a sob story and we all left feeling happy and motivated to be more like this man .
@@nessal4078 right!? Mark kept opening the door for him and this sweet soul just kept saying Thanks! As he politely closed it.
@@chasnfireflies317 oh yes ❤️- his parents must be so proud . xx
He’s on Instagram too. His girlfriend seems to love the hell out of him. I think having people (and pets) that adore you make all the difference.
mark? lmfao, he’s raking on the $$$$.
Inspirational young man! We can all take a lesson from his life and attitude. Thank you for sharing your story and being brave.
These transplant surgeons better be learning massive amounts from these procedures. Best wishes to this young man. No other comment, 2 minutes in. Stunned.
My God is attitude seems so relaxed.... he doesn't seem angry...... that's great!
Sometimes it's easier to accept if no one else is to blame 🙏💙
I’m 27, I’m born and raised in New Jersey, and I too fell asleep at the wheel around the age of 20. I was blessed enough to walk away with a scar on my hand after a hospital stay, I could’ve very easily been in Joe’s very position. God bless him for fighting and finding the positive and light in this situation and this world. Praying for you Joe!
I had an accident from falling asleep while driving. Vehicle flipped 2 or 3 times, No bumps or even a scratch. I felt lucky, after seeing this I feel more blessed. One of the strongest and most positive person I have seen, thanks for sharing your story.
I’m from Jersey, and Route 22 is one of the most dangerous highways in America. God Bless you Joe.
No it isn’t
Why is the State not doing anything to identify and mitigate the dangers on that particular stretch of the road? We have studies for everything! Why are we forced to kill ourselves just to survive? Something wrong with our society.
Hope this young man has a long and happy life!
I’m sorry- did he say that he was the THIRD MAJOR ACCIDENT to happen on that one curve THAT MORNING?!? That’s hard to take in! Do multiple people die on it daily, do you know?
I mean, gotta hand it to Jersey’s clean-up crew for how quickly they get the road open. Now if only the civil engineers were so efficient 😅
He’s a beautiful man, inside and out. ❤
Just watched this. I would of never guessed you had 80% burn and had a transplant. Dr's did good Joe. Thank you for your story. My daughter had a skin transplant on her forhead. Kosairs in Cincinnati did an awesome job also. Damn that fire. Keep up the good work and good spirits. God bless sir.
Dude is a tank. He has a winning mentality.
Joe & Mark Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. I am also an 80% burn survivor and I am so blessed to have come across your story. Many blessing to you and your continued healing and recovery. ❤️🔥🙏🏻❤️🔥
At the end of the day id take this over losing anyone.
Joe is a true hero and is definitly inspirational
I love this man’s personality, demeanor, outlook. He’s so incredibly positive after experiencing something so harrowing and continuing to experience something so life changing. I was afraid to watch this episode because some of these documentaries can really take a tole on my emotions but this man turned my whole morning around. I hope he has something amazing coming his way.
He might be single if you really wanna help out
@@jdvlanka265I'm not gay but sign me up!
Dear Joe,
Thank you for sharing your story. It is inspiring. God bless you. ❤
It’s so fulfilling to see such beautiful people left in the world.
This guy is so inspirational. He deserves the best in life . The burden he carries and Barriers to overcome
What a wonderful young man Joe is. Such incredible strength and resolve. A true inspiration
We can all learn from this man. His attitude and outlook on life is so healthy and positive. What a wonderful human being! God bless
I LOVE THIS GUY!
I hope my kids turn out as smart as he is. This guy knows what matters in life.
It’s not cosmetic vanity.
It’s not the cover of the book that matters.
What matters is his heart and soul.
LOVE HIM!!!
