Have just come across your channel whilst looking for something to distract me from my pain, and this video couldn’t have been better timed! I have EDS and a spinal injury and, like you, need crutches to walk and also use a wheelchair/mobility scooter when out and about. My NHS crutches are definitely falling to bits and getting them replaced is proving tricky so I’ve been looking into Cool Crutches too! Your review has made me decide that I definitely need a pair (or 2!) to help me stay as mobile as possible. Now to decide whether I want to design my own with my cats on (crazy cat lady here!) or stick with something they already have, like the purple… I’ve now subscribed and can’t wait to see more of your journey through life with EDS and other health stuff. And I hope Luna gets lots of screen time too as she’s a beauty!
Aww thank you so much for your kind words and I’m so sorry I’ve taken so long to reply! 🫣 Have you gotten your crutches yet and if so, what did you get? I’m a crazy cat lady too 😹 Xxx
@@stelasulzdorf I finally got my crutches just before Christmas - went for the purple ones as they’re my favourite colour…! Definitely need some others with different designs when I next have some spare cash! I can’t believe how much more upright I am walking with them! Your video definitely encouraged me to buy them so thank you 😊 xx
@@nikkimansell2760 That’s amazing and I’m so happy you got them and you love them too! I’m definitely thinking of buying another pair too. But like you, I like them all and can’t decide if I should custom make some 🤣 Xx
Love your crutches! So stylish and yes i am too 🙈 walls and door frames seem to jump out at me 🤪. Luna matches your crutches too! Love you and glad to see you making new content!
Im recently disabled (15 with some form of possible arthritis) and I was wondering if the smart crutches are still good? Because I can't put a lot of pressure on my wrist
I have EDS and I am very clumsy as well. And I too always need help when putting crutches together, those buttons are always very firm to press with flexible fingers and it can get tiring very quickly. I really liked and related to your video, I’ll watch more of them now that I’ve discovered your channel.
Btw, medicaid crutches are the same here in the US and I used them for years and it was such a wonderful change when I switched to more comfortable ergonomic crutches and it helped my back, shoulders and arms so much.
Hey I fractured my knee and need surgery, I'm going to be on crutches only for 2-3 months though. The crutches from the hospital cause wrist pain, are pretty loud, and the bottom keeps breaking. Do you think it is worth investing in cool crutches, or any other cheaper options.
i always got told not to do yoga cuz of my hEDS and the hypermobile part of it. apparently i've been using the wrong muscles for everything my entire life who knew?
Do you think you’ll give cool crutches a try? Are there any other crutches I should test?
Thanks for watching! Xx 💕
They are a great addition of support. Great research and review hunxxxxx
I have been following cool crutches for a while, but you’ve inspired me to finally pull the trigger!
Would love a pair of cool crutches but they are way out of my price range 😢

Me, realizing that I, too, have CRAZY long forearms. Didn’t realize that was an EDS thing

Like isn’t everyone hyper mobile (I said to myself before I realised that not everyone is)
I’ve been using cool crutches for over a decade - they are amazing and still like new.

Flexifoot do a good range of Crutches and Canes
I also have EDS and am very clumsy as well
It’s just part of EDS for sure 😅💕
I’d definitely try them!!!! Do they deliver to the US??
They do you just have to pay more for shipping
Is your wheelchair custom made? Does it breakdown easily? What’s the name of it? I have Stiff Person Syndrome since 2013. Thanks

How much???
5:26 8-year-old can do that without any help? so why in the world can 20-year-old do it?🤔
Eds and dyspraxia 🤣 always dropping things and walking into stuff.
You're beautiful regardless of your disability
