I wish the best because your deserve it. Your love for each other is so pure. Nowadays, it is not easy to find this real chemistry in relationships, people are so interested and shallow. You are stronger together!!!
They have a TH-cam channel that's amazing! It's actually one of my favorites. So if you liked this & was inspired you should check out Roll WIth Cole & Charisma!
I would love for you two beautiful inspiring people to write a book about your life together, followed by a movie. You are so inspiring Cole & Charisma, I love you both 😊
Everybody keeps saying what a lucky guy... but could you imagine having a guy look at you the way he looks at her!! They both are lucky to have found each other!
I follow these beautiful people on TH-cam and when I saw they did a ted talk I was psyched to watch it. They didn’t disappoint. I’m kind of a groupie now.
Charisma is absolutely stunning ... so beautiful inside and out. She is so sweet. Cole is cute, adorable, really genuine, and has a big heart. You guys make me happy :')
His story telling and stage presence is magnificent. You could literally visualize what was happening based on the vivid descriptions he gave. What an angel she is to have chosen this life. To give up so much to honor, love and take care of someone who will likely need most of your time, every day, for the rest of your life. That is a soul worthy of praise. May God completely heal your body and complete your miracle. I pray that those who want to, will soon be able to walk again.
God WILL heal, if not in this life, then **more importantly, in the afterlife. I’m a mom of a C5/6 quad, injured at age 15....These two souls are both going straight to heaven!
I can literally sit on my couch and watch you guys all day, this brings me so much joy it makes my heart smile , my son is also paralyzed waist down with a SCI i just pray he finds someone just as caring and understanding as Charisma is to you Cole, you both hit the jack pot. I notice how Cole smiles when he's looking at you while you speak, thats real love, i love you guys and the positivity you stand on, keep it up Gods definitely proud of you both.
ME I WATCHED THIS 4TIMES ALREADY EACH IT STILL GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS SO I LEARNED SOMETHING EACH TIMES.... BECAUSE I AM PERSON WITH MULTI DISABILITIES.. AND GREW UP EDUCATING THE PUBLIC & PEOPLE WHOM I CAME IN CONTACT WITH.. AND T.A.B. TEMPORARY ABLE BODY... WE ALL DON'T KNOW WHEN WHERE IF WE ALL BECOME DISABLE OR MORE DISABLED IN MY CASE YES.....
I know I just recently came across their channel and I tell you I have been watching it for hours when I am working . I love 💕💕♥️🤗🥰 love them both . Sometimes my eyes are filled with tears but most of the time I have this big smile on my face. Charisma and Cole, a big hug and much love from Canada 🇨🇦
I still tear up when I hear him talk about how he thought his mother felt. I am so blessed to be following this beautiful couple.❤❤❤❤ Love from Guyana 🇬🇾
Go cole!!! Idk how well you practiced or wrote it down but it felt so natural granted you've told this story a hundred times but this was a different view for me to see. Definitely one of my favorite Ted Talks
Thank you so much for speaking to a very important subject. I had been married with 3 kids before I became paraplegic. I had a great marriage before and dealing with disability only made us stronger. Be blessed everyone, I pray you guys have a long, happy marriage.
So happy to see them doing a Ted Talk! Tears filled my eyes when he was saying how he should have listened to his mom. Lovely talk, and now they are husband and wife. Beautiful!
You are both sooooo intelligent. One can clearly see that you both were meant to be together. This should serve as a reminder to everyone that we should never ignore the right person for us just because of that person's disability or physical looks. Sometimes we need to look beyond the physical. Never judge people because of how they look. They might be that missing puzzle you need to make your life whole. Love you guys. Please continue to be there for each other. May God continue to bind you both with unbreakable chords of love.
Be carefull about what you say. Some ppl will not walk again and it's hard enough for them to accept that. They don't need other ppl to make them feel like they absolutely have to walk on their feet to be humain.
@@EoDnhoJ-JohnDoE True! I’m a mom of a C5/6 quad and it’s not about wanting or trying to walk, minus a miracle! Most people just don’t know enough about spinal cord injuries, we can help educate. Regardless, Coles life in a wheelchair appears already more meaningful and joyous than many who are walking! Heck, look at suicide rate- in people who CAN WALK!
Agreed. I know Cole is super awesome too but the greatest sacrifice is definitely on her. She has chosen to take on a huge responsibility, especially with wanting to start a family. She’s definitely special. ❤️
Love watching their videos. And I enjoyed this one. I woke up this morning at 4:30. And can’t go back to sleep. I am 2 time cancer survivor, been thru multiple surgeries/procedures. Chemo and radiation. Nov of last year I had a kidney removed because of it stopped working due the chemo/radiation. I also have an ilescompty. I struggle every day to be positive. This video reconfirms that I have to be happy and content with the new me. I will focus on doing more with my family and grandchildren. Thank you for this wonderful video
Had a friend who dove head first off of a dock into the water, intoxicated. He hit right beside the steps leading into the water that was a bit more than a meter deep, but luckily he flipped just in time and hit his shoulder on the floor. We were all so mad at him, but we were lucky that he only had a bruised shoulder, not a broken neck.
I recently started following Cole and Charisma's TH-cam channel, they are such an inspiration. I love seeing the world through their eyes as they continue to grow individually and as a couple. Awesome TedX talk!
Am crying like a baby not because this makes me sad but because this makes me so happy. I wish I have a love like the love you both have for each other someday.
It was miracle because neurologist whi checked him told me he will never walk. That day I really cried. My husband was very jolly minded inspite of physical problems always smiling and laughing. I just prayed God heal him.Dr ganguli very often visits America. If possible just meet him. I have firm belief Cole will be alright and walk.
Chills... you guys made me cry in the morning! I could just hear the resounding words of mom saying isn't that unsafe) currently still have an invisible disability and so, I was thinking the same and youre right, was to look at what I can do versus what I cannot. I entirely enjoy a camera so we'll see... there are gifts that I have learned from my condition that perhaps I can use.
Amazing talk. Cole, not only these videos help people with your situation but it also offers others a role model to watch. Seeing your positive spirit despite the situation you endured and what you still have to go through daily, allows others to understand that if you can do it, so can others with way less difficulties. Thank you for doing what you do. Both you and Carisma are an amazing team. You may not understand the impact your channel and your videos have on everyone, able or disable. Please continue your work, it's life changing for many. Many blessings for you and all your loves ones.
I’ve been waiting for this for SO long! Outstanding speaking engagement! I really like the end question, it gets you really thinking! Feel so proud of ya’ll! 💕
Do you know one thing , you are not living for you . You are living for millions of people. You are strong enough mentally & emotionally. I appreciate also your Mom. I know her feeling for son.Thank you so much for sharing us & keep it up!!
Cole and Charisma! I love your channel soooooooooo much and you both give me so much hope in humanity! Thank you for making me smile! I love your relationship. Congratulations on your engagement. STAY POSITIVE!!!!!!!
This is an amazing TED talk. I love how it started with just Cole and how he introduced Charisma. They are so easy and smooth talking to an audience. There chemistry and connection is palpable. The message of how do you navigate through the struggles in your life is real for everyone.
Unfortunately there are people in the world who think that Cole's brother did him a great disservice by not killing him. They think that suicidal thoughts after a life-changing injury are perfectly rational rather than emotional and should be respected. Thank God that Cole's brother wasn't one of those people.
What God has joined together let no man put asunder. Both of you have such beautiful spirits. Both of you have so faith and spiritual strength. That only comes from God. The love you have for each other nothing is impossible with faith in God. May God continue to bless you and keep you in his care.🎆
First, Charisma was looking 🔥 in here! I love love when she does her hair like that! Second, I have watched Cole talk about his accident SO many times and regardless of that I always cry! Third, everything you guys said was amazing explained and put out for us to make awareness. I LOVED IT ❤️
I truly love the way these two look at each other when one of them is talking. You can see the love and respect they feel in their eyes. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
You both were awesome, well done, harmonious true to self, and your love, and respect for each other shines through alone with your cause, to educate the public, thank you both, so much for sharing, key to success in dealing with life's challenges,, with pure love and optimism! An unknown philosopher once said: Its not things themselves that destrub mankind, it's their ideas about them. Uneducated man blames others for their failures, and partially educated man blames himself, but an educated man blames no one nor himself, because he know the full essences of reality! You have educated yourself and others, both mentally, emotionally and physically so as to be equipped, to meet demands, come what may! Am truly happy for you both! You help so many stay positive from your examples, regardless of the circumstances or demands, in life ! Thank you!!
Oh my God....That was so inspirational! Made me rethink how to assess issues that I may be having (which are miniscule in comparison) and change my pattern of thinking about it. Love you guys and wish you nothing but blessings and pure happiness! 🎉❤️
I have tears of joy. You are an incredible couple. This is what God asks of us.... it would be a better world if we all follow your lead God bless you always.
Rock solid Charisma and Cole. There are times you’ll listen and times when you hear with all your heart. 💞A beautifully delivered and aptly titled talk. ✨Diligently sharing and in turn, inspiring. Thank you.
he didnt choose that life but she did .... thats extra respectable
I wish the best because your deserve it. Your love for each other is so pure. Nowadays, it is not easy to find this real chemistry in relationships, people are so interested and shallow. You are stronger together!!!
They have a TH-cam channel that's amazing! It's actually one of my favorites. So if you liked this & was inspired you should check out Roll WIth Cole & Charisma!

Makes me regret all the things I complain about. I love these two. I love their families. I love their dog. I feel obsessed.

Excellently done !! May you two continue to grow and stay positive !!
He even got emotional. 😢
I loved this! I also love watching them on their TH-cam channel. I'm lucky enough to have found my hubby (11yrs ago) and I too am disabled.
@@iluvtigers1970 were you always disable?
@@queenbee2447 I've been disabled for over 20 yrs now unfortunately
Thank you so much for speaking to a very important subject. I had been married with 3 kids before I became paraplegic. I had a great marriage before and dealing with disability only made us stronger. Be blessed everyone, I pray you guys have a long, happy marriage.
My favourite couple in the Internet 💞
I just saw this and was like"OMG they're on Ted talk. Yasssss"
So happy to see them doing a Ted Talk! Tears filled my eyes when he was saying how he should have listened to his mom. Lovely talk, and now they are husband and wife. Beautiful!
Damn. What a selfless, matured young couple.
These two are changing the world❤️
These were meant to be together. A very charismatic couple, great connection.
Well done guys! i broke my neck surfing in 1998, i am a c5 c6 quadriplegic
You are both sooooo intelligent. One can clearly see that you both were meant to be together.

Please continue to be there for each other. May God continue to bind you both with unbreakable chords of love.
They are married now!!!! So happy they found each other.
What a great couple. For sure he will walk again with the love of his wife. Love is powerful 😍

Since they are now one they walk and roll united. She is his legs.
Cole is such an inspiration. So is Charisma. Many blessings to both of them.
"Confidence has nothing to do with conformity but everything to do with acceptance" simply put truth! ❤️ you both
"Just because I hadn't faced a struggle like this before did not mean it's gonna be too much for me to handle." ㅡ Cole :)
This is one lucky man.....What a woman. Respect!❤️

May God bless and be with you on your journey to a speedy recovery. 🙏🏾
Oh my gosh Cole made it on TED I'm crying. So happy 🙏🙏🙏

Cole and Charisma killed it as usually. Blessings to you both.
Am crying like a baby not because this makes me sad but because this makes me so happy. I wish I have a love like the love you both have for each other someday.
