Om my she is so beautiful, a disability doesn’t make a child different. They all deserve love & care & if I had a chance I too would adopt her. Finley is so cute & I believe with parents like that she power through life ❤️
KC TV I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through but you must not let them bullies bring you down & believe in yourself. I know it takes time but if you put you’re mind & persist in your goals, anything is possible. Just remember we’re all here for a reason so enjoy life & make your dreams come true. God bless you & ill pray for you honey❤️. Make everyday a happy day
I was at target the other day, and when i went over to look at the kids section for my little sister, she was modeling one of their outfits! I just saw the little board with her on it and i looked at my mom like “OMG i remember i saw a documentary on her!” It was adorable!!
As a teenager with CP, this warms my heart. (My arms are okay, my legs are the issue). I was born premature as well. My mom tells me the story sometimes, and it all sounds so insane! She's a little sweetheart and I wish her all the best.
Same here except I’m twelve. Finley is like an inspiration for me and it makes me so happy to know that I’m not alone and that she’s fighting the negativity in life to bring the light into the world
I was also born a preemie as well! (well a micropreemie), and I wasnt able to walk until i was 4! I had to use a walker (and the cutest part is that the walker was Hello Kitty THEMED! I still struggle with leg issues and it was both my pace and how slow i walk!)
My little cousin has Cerebral Palsy...and she is the cutest most lively little girl and she recently had a play at her school and she did so well i started to cry! Dont feel bad because she cant do most things, because in reality she can do anything!
Cousins For Life!!! ... I’m thinking she was saying surprised because she looks just like her mom... I myself thought she birth her!!! But either way, may God bless this family!🙏😍😘❣️
this make me cry of happiness , the girl is so beautiful inside and out - her mom is one of a kind - and restore my faith in humanity and melt my heart away also...
804 people have disliked this, your clearly not well...bless this child, same as everyone with a heart I'm sure, seeing a child with a disability whether mentally or physically is absolutely gut wrenching I genuinely wish this young girl and family all the very best of everything that comes to you!! Stay safe people
People always downvote videos, it’s inevitable no matter what the video, and there could be a multitude of reasons why, so there is little point in getting upset about it. Just enjoy the video and thumb it up to give your support 🙂👍
She's so gorgeous, My boyfriend has CP and epilepsy and had similar problems with walking and fine motor function growing up but now at 20 he's an amazing independent young man he even manages to look after me and all of my illnesses and disabilities I'm sure the future holds the same for this little lady, beauty (on the inside too) and independence and maybe even her own family one day 💖
Toffi thank you! Coincidentally he's actually having surgery this week to reconstruct his more affected arm. It's not my first time dealing with cp though 2 of my cousins also have it quite severely and are completely independent with the help of their aids and appliances, Finley reminds me so much of AJ the younger one I remember him most at this age (hes 6 years younger than me) its when he started karate and now at 14 he's a 2nd dan black belt in 3 disciplines and an aspiring chef it makes me so proud everyday. It's always been a big part of my life and always will be thanks to jakey (my bf)
Rachel Lazenby both my brothers have cerebral palsy and epilepsy. They mean the world to me. They are 28 and 31. Such happy boys they love their life i wouldn't change them ❤️
I now have a bf with disabilities. He has tourettes, severe lunge problems, insomnia, anxiety ect n my brothers helped me care for people as u am now working in a care home for elderly
She is absolutely determined, and SO undeniably cute (cuteness overload!)!! This family are going places...and should be!!! I hope parents of special needs kids all over the world can find comfort, support, hope and inspiration in this awesome family. The road may be rough, uncertain and depressing at times...but there IS light!! This team of 3 is proof!
I hope Finley knows that she has people who care! Even though she had a disability, does not change her personality! She is cute, adorable, and beautiful!
I have a friend with cerebral palsy and she is one of the sweetest person I’ve met, no joke! She has daily struggles but when sees people she yells out to them and hugs them tight! So to everyone in the world with or without a disability, know that there is always someone who cares about you so have fun and enjoy each and every day of your fantastic life!❤️
I volunteer with the cerebral palsy association of St.Lucia and it is an absolute joy working with them 😊 watching them overcome trials its beautiful. hang in there she will be great one day💚💚💚💚 just keep on loving her
I had the same brain hemorrhage as this girl did and as a result of this, I have a milder form of cerebral palsy known as spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy. I'm proud of this girl, she is brilliant and I'm sure that she will grow up to be whatever she wants to be and not let fame go up to her head despite being a sensation on Instagram. She definitely has very fine cognitive skills, so she could easily be able to get through school.
Cool guys I’m glad that more people are relating to this matter. We need more videos that show the different perspectives of people who have cerebral palsy, no matter how severe.
She's so beautiful they are so beautiful they are all amazing! Finley I hope you see these comments when you're older. You are amazing keep going you can and are doing this you are so beautiful! Keep at it lass! And mum and dad you two are amazing too I love how you 'normalise' it all (I put is in ' ' because I don't like the word normal there is no normal!) The one shoe sooo cute Josh you were like so chill about it love it! You all are amazing beautiful and wonderful! Xxx
She is so adorable and beautiful as she grows she’s going to thank her parents she has very wonderful parents that’s love her so munch she’s so beautiful and cute and amazing
She is such a beautiful smart girl she made my heart melt!!😩💘 I love this couple for this because no matter how things they pushed through it and continue to be happy and adopted/raise this little Angel. What a blessing😩💘🙌🏼
Oh my god when she went in and said 'Daddy! I've got a poncho on' I actually welled up a little bit. They clearly love her so much and she's such a happy, beautiful girl. What a lovely family 😍
I follow them on instagram & never knew Finley wasn’t theirs . I literally thought she birthed her ❤️ now they are expecting a new baby ❤️ congratulations to them Finley will be a big a big sister . ❤️
My older brother has cerebral palsy(C.P) too! He is 13. He has a very severe type. C.P affects coordination. It’s like a bruise in the brain..... my brother cannot talk,walk,stand or sit.... I am very touched by this video! 😍🤗😄
You mean your younger brother.😊 because to download youtube you must be at least 13, meaning that you must either be his twin, or older sister, in order for you to use youtube 😊
Dumpling _Panda My brother is 19 and has C.P Main man gonna be a special ed teacher, I’m proud of my broham. (Excuse the sad 80’s language, I’m a sad human being.)
I have cerebral palsy too. I have a moderate case and I am so great full for that. My mom and dad have done everything to help me walk. (I have not neurological problems thank god ❤️😇) now I am able to walk run jump swim and do everything a non effected kid would have. I have had a major surgery and other things. I do physical therapy once a week every since my parents found out my diagnosis, but just recently my physical therapist said I can do physical therapy once a month. This is a huge milestone for me. I still have to use my AFO’s (leg braces) and stuff, but I can thank my parents enough. Finley is such an angle and I can’t wait to watch how she grows. I hope this inspires you to never give up. ❤️
My twin cousins were diagnosed w this and so my aunt and uncle prayed every night for them to be cured. And they're perfecly fine. Crazy how God works. Never give up hope. She's beautiful. Keep doing what you're doing.
My best friend i grew uo with has cerebal palsy and she is in her 20s now and she is my inspiration she has a child after a complicated pregnancy but she is stronger than anything.
Most people don't know what a struggle it is living with someone with cerebral palsy cause they haven't experienced it I actually have my little sister has cerebral palsy and we love so much she is my favourite it's hard but the are awesome the can't walk or talk right Marin (my little sister) has seen soooo many doctors and it's where they are sorta missing a part of thier brain not much but it still makes a big difference
ARaine Raining diys my sister has parlpalic cp which effects the lower part of the body but she is 17 years older than me but like I help walk and get things she can’t get up to get and just recently she started building a wheel chair acesble house which will make it easier for her to do things because our house is not even romoetly wheelchair acsible at this means I don’t have to get up every five minutes to get her stuff but then again my able body siblings do the same so not much different 😂
I already knew about cerebral palsy before watching this because I read a book, this story is like the real life version of the book and Finley is so inspiring. Finley shows you that you should push through whatever you are going through and in so inspired by her ❤️ Finley is such a cute little girl that should not have to go through what she is going through. Finley should not have a disease and this disease that she has does not define her for who she is. I love the fact that she is pushing through this disease. Finley is such a strong and inspiring little girl😉 ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Each like is one prayer that she’ll get better and be a healthy child ❤️💝
Back in elementary school , I made friends with a girl who had cerebral palsy who was in the special ed group. Despite that,she was always really happy and she always smiled and she was super smart. I don’t really know where she is now,but I pray that she’s doing better. Not only that, god bless Finley! 🙏🏻♥️
I have a little sister that has cerebral palsey and was born 28 weeks early she is now 5 and uses stucks to walk she also has cronik lung disease and she is my life and i cant live with out her
Maybe but there are a lot of factors going into whether someone with cerebral palsy is able to walk. Things such as motivation, encouragement, medical care, environment and of course how severe it is. Only time will tell.
Christina and her husband are not human, they are angels!!! 😭😭 In this world so many couple that doesnt ready to be a parents, treat their children badly or leave they in broken home shadows. Christina and her husband are so ready to be a parent, they will be really a good parent, but God have any else plan. I wish the best for them!
This touches my heart. My dad has CP and this makes me very happy. I was crying the whole time. She’s very strong and this is a very amazing video. Thank you for this.
As a person with Cerebral palsy who is now an adult, I find this mildly disturbing. I get the positive points and I am certain this lady is a good mother and Finley is well cared for. The issue I have is just that I found I was able to progress more in physical fitness and in mental ability by my parents not grouping me with other disabled children, or by saying that "in spite of" having cerebral palsy I did this or that... As Finley grows up, there is a huge chance that her appearance will change (in either direction) and if she has mental development issues, she may not be able to emotionally cope with her follower count rising or falling because of that. I really, really hope her parents are being careful about how they are doing this.
I agree, it can go either way. If they're careful not to get too enamored with the popularity and the attention, and make sure that they always consciously keep the focus of their efforts and praise on her being productive, creative, useful, and independent, then she'll be okay. That's the path to a good life for anyone, but with the extra challenges that you clearly know from your own experience, it will probably be especially important here.
YES. I have CP (In middle school so im literally dying in a mental hell) and I understand every point you state. I find this as an issue with most parents, always taking that extra mile to ensure their childs safety, with no thoughts of their child's social and Acedemic needs and wants. We still are people, no need to treat us any different. We get enough attention with our disability, having a whole account of "bless your soul, poor girl, (etc)" is literal mental suicide for people who just want to blend in.
*Ahem, a prayer and message to the Smallwood Family from (Matt) DragzXElite, the leader of the DragzXClan.* *"I hope you continue to pursue and hopefully get to reach your dream of fashion Finly Smallwood, best regards from DragzXElite, owner of the DragzXClan. Don't ever give up Finly Smallwood, just because you have cerebral palsy, a disability, or just being one different out of the seven billion humans here on Earth, let your difference help your personality grow and shine as a person, don't let that stop you from pursuing your lifelong dreams, God would be very proud to see the person you'll become in a few years time, just always remember this even during your darkest hours in your life that God is watching over you Finly cheering you on no matter what happens."* *;* *)* *- DragzXElite*
A girl in my class has a walker and the leg braces, and she is one of my absolute best friends in the world. Since we are such good friends, once she said to me “I wanna marry you.” I was so touched and am so happy to have a friend like her. Sometimes we say to each other ‘We’re like sisters.’ We love each other so much. I love her so much. 😭💛
My heart just melts when I hear about a family openly welcoming a child with disabilities. Because you never know how this journey is going to effect you and your family . But you know that your child’s disability doesn’t matter . You love that child with every fiber in your body . So however hard it gets you push through. Because love is a powerful things , that when people truly love someone the measures that they take for them is truly pressure. Because I lost my baby sister from Sarabel palsy but while she was here I had never felt loved like that by anyone. Because no matter what that little girl woke up every say with a smile on her face and joy for the adventure that today would bring. And it didn’t matter to my family that people stared and whispered because that little girl was the light in the darkness, the sun came up to kiss her every morning. And for parents and families welcoming children and siblings with disabilities not only is the child extremely lucky and special but the family is lucky to have a little person come into their lives and change the way they look at love forever .
Ducky1521 there’s quite a few surgeries and a simple search will bring a couple up. They all have varying degrees of success depending on the person and the severity of their illness. The surgery is usually offered to children once other types of therapies etc have failed, although I don’t believe that anyone has ever been cured from it I know there are fixes to ease the severity. (Not trying to be rude just thought I’d shed some light)
Same I have cerebral palsy but when I was younger I had surgery on my legs and back to remove something I’m unsure what but I’m now ten years old and able to walk with support or a walker mine has a seat on the back and me and my friends laugh because they push me around on it when I’m tired and I do stupid little tricks it’s so funny 😆 and I’m starting to take multiple steps on my own and I’m just about to move up to a comprehensive school and I’ve always been to a normal school plus I learnt to horse ride do gymnastics and football and I do shows in my drama school
My cousin has cerebral palsy and he will never walk or talk again 😭 he is 12 and he has to eat through a tube he basically lives in bed unless he uses with wheelchair and that is rarely because of his seizures
Yuna264 when u said year or two you would normally know how old your cousin would be or younger for someone bye subtraction soo I think ur lying no hate my opinion
@jaiden💘 I feel so sorry for your cousin. I hope life works out well for him...I know exactly what it's like to have seizures because I have epilepsy and for a while I was in a wheelchair. All the best to your whole family😘💜
I absolutely adore her she brings a smile to everyone's face and is such a happy and positive kid. Her disability doesn't define who she is as a person but it's what makes her stand out and be the light in a dark room 💕
I can FEEL in my gut the process of mobilizing strength that has gone on, and continues to go on, in this family! The quality of the bonds, the determination to focus on what sustains happiness, what restores it. Tremendous leadership.
Plzzz pin this: I have a little sister who is 8 years old and she also has cerebral palsy and my mom is one of Finley's followers and I'm always asking my mom for her phone so I could see Finley's and her mom💟💟 Finley is sooooo adorable😍😍😍
@AA AA how is that hard to believe, my cousins always tried to find others who has a family member or does have cerebral palsy to follow or become friends with
I get that and relate. But what we’ve gotta tell ourselves is that those parents might not have been ready to care for a child with a disability and she ended up with amazing parents ❤️
I have a minor version as cerebral palsy. I wear leg braces almost every day. This was very inspiring and I’d bless that girl. I realize that I take a lot of things for granted. If anyone has this obstacle or any other obstacle in heir life please never give up and have a lot of hope.
She is so adorable and I also have cerebral palsy but I was 7 months old when I was in a car accident my doctor told my parents that I wouldn't live past 18 and now I'm almost 50 years old. Don't give up on her

Mad respect to this couple. God bless them both for giving this little girl a chance. She is absolutely precious.
As a teenager with CP, this warms my heart. (My arms are okay, my legs are the issue). I was born premature as well. My mom tells me the story sometimes, and it all sounds so insane! She's a little sweetheart and I wish her all the best.
Thats very kind of you to say.

Why the dislikes.. She's so beautiful
There’s always gonna be naysayers
Yeah I'm asking the same thing why the dislikes because she's not different from other people
Heartless people :(
This is beautiful. All of their personalities are pure. She is going to grow into a respectful woman; her mother's kindness makes that a guarantee.
804 people have disliked this, your clearly not well...bless this child, same as everyone with a heart I'm sure, seeing a child with a disability whether mentally or physically is absolutely gut wrenching I genuinely wish this young girl and family all the very best of everything that comes to you!!

ARaine Raining diys my sister has parlpalic cp which effects the lower part of the body but she is 17 years older than me but like I help walk and get things she can’t get up to get and just recently she started building a wheel chair acesble house which will make it easier for her to do things because our house is not even romoetly wheelchair acsible at this means I don’t have to get up every five minutes to get her stuff but then again my able body siblings do the same so not much different 😂
I already knew about cerebral palsy before watching this because I read a book, this story is like the real life version of the book and Finley is so inspiring. Finley shows you that you should push through whatever you are going through and in so inspired by her ❤️ Finley is such a cute little girl that should not have to go through what she is going through. Finley should not have a disease and this disease that she has does not define her for who she is. I love the fact that she is pushing through this disease. Finley is such a strong and inspiring little girl😉
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Each like is one prayer that she’ll get better and be a healthy child ❤️💝
1. I appreciate your love to this child
2. Please do not use somebody else's pity for likes. Likes mean nothing.
Cerebral palsy is not a disease. She had bleeding in her brain, which caused damage to the area of her brain that controls movement.
Back in elementary school , I made friends with a girl who had cerebral palsy who was in the special ed group. Despite that,she was always really happy and she always smiled and she was super smart. I don’t really know where she is now,but I pray that she’s doing better. Not only that, god bless Finley! 🙏🏻♥️
PokeBelle 129 I have CP and have had a lot of friends that I have lost contact with from elementary school. I often wonder what they are doing
She does not look different at all. She is a gift from God..😊😊😊😊😊
Terri Sauls but she is different
I have a little sister that has cerebral palsey and was born 28 weeks early she is now 5 and uses stucks to walk she also has cronik lung disease and she is my life and i cant live with out her
My sister also goes to a cerebral palsy centre called CPEC cerebral palsyeducation centre
god bless your sister❤️
sarah brown thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
That’s so sweet, she must be lucky to have you 😊
Mackenzie B bless you all
Omg she’s so pretty and cute! I really get a positive vibe that she’ll walk ❤️
Maybe but there are a lot of factors going into whether someone with cerebral palsy is able to walk. Things such as motivation, encouragement, medical care, environment and of course how severe it is. Only time will tell.
Christina and her husband are not human, they are angels!!! 😭😭
In this world so many couple that doesnt ready to be a parents, treat their children badly or leave they in broken home shadows. Christina and her husband are so ready to be a parent, they will be really a good parent, but God have any else plan.
I wish the best for them!
I have Cerebral Palsy and it'll be tough for her and them but I think they got this 👍😁
Hugs Abi!!!! 🤗😘😍💋💖
I wish you luck in your life Abi
❤

No kidding, She is a Star! She is too cute💝
She is so beautiful I want my beauty to look like her’s
Candy Crush I don't know you but your beautiful just the way you are
She looks like her mom! what a lovely mother!! She makes her feel like the most special girls on earth!
This touches my heart. My dad has CP and this makes me very happy. I was crying the whole time. She’s very strong and this is a very amazing video. Thank you for this.
She is so adorable!!!!!!! ❤️❤️
As a person with Cerebral palsy who is now an adult, I find this mildly disturbing. I get the positive points and I am certain this lady is a good mother and Finley is well cared for. The issue I have is just that I found I was able to progress more in physical fitness and in mental ability by my parents not grouping me with other disabled children, or by saying that "in spite of" having cerebral palsy I did this or that... As Finley grows up, there is a huge chance that her appearance will change (in either direction) and if she has mental development issues, she may not be able to emotionally cope with her follower count rising or falling because of that. I really, really hope her parents are being careful about how they are doing this.
Porcelain chips very true, I also have a form of cerebral palsy.
I have mild spastic cerebral palsy
Porcelain chips maybe, but generations change.
I agree, it can go either way. If they're careful not to get too enamored with the popularity and the attention, and make sure that they always consciously keep the focus of their efforts and praise on her being productive, creative, useful, and independent, then she'll be okay. That's the path to a good life for anyone, but with the extra challenges that you clearly know from your own experience, it will probably be especially important here.
Porcelain chips umm ok?
YES. I have CP (In middle school so im literally dying in a mental hell) and I understand every point you state. I find this as an issue with most parents, always taking that extra mile to ensure their childs safety, with no thoughts of their child's social and Acedemic needs and wants. We still are people, no need to treat us any different. We get enough attention with our disability, having a whole account of "bless your soul, poor girl, (etc)" is literal mental suicide for people who just want to blend in.
*Ahem, a prayer and message to the Smallwood Family from (Matt) DragzXElite, the leader of the DragzXClan.*
*"I hope you continue to pursue and hopefully get to reach your dream of fashion Finly Smallwood, best regards from DragzXElite, owner of the DragzXClan. Don't ever give up Finly Smallwood, just because you have cerebral palsy, a disability, or just being one different out of the seven billion humans here on Earth, let your difference help your personality grow and shine as a person, don't let that stop you from pursuing your lifelong dreams, God would be very proud to see the person you'll become in a few years time, just always remember this even during your darkest hours in your life that God is watching over you Finly cheering you on no matter what happens."* *;* *)*

DragzXElite YT thanks SO nice god bless her😇🙏
A girl in my class has a walker and the leg braces, and she is one of my absolute best friends in the world. Since we are such good friends, once she said to me “I wanna marry you.” I was so touched and am so happy to have a friend like her. Sometimes we say to each other ‘We’re like sisters.’ We love each other so much. I love her so much. 😭💛
My heart just melts when I hear about a family openly welcoming a child with disabilities. Because you never know how this journey is going to effect you and your family . But you know that your child’s disability doesn’t matter . You love that child with every fiber in your body . So however hard it gets you push through. Because love is a powerful things , that when people truly love someone the measures that they take for them is truly pressure. Because I lost my baby sister from Sarabel palsy but while she was here I had never felt loved like that by anyone. Because no matter what that little girl woke up every say with a smile on her face and joy for the adventure that today would bring. And it didn’t matter to my family that people stared and whispered because that little girl was the light in the darkness, the sun came up to kiss her every morning. And for parents and families welcoming children and siblings with disabilities not only is the child extremely lucky and special but the family is lucky to have a little person come into their lives and change the way they look at love forever .
Beautiful family, so inspiring
Oh my God I'm not just saying this because I feel bad for her but Finley is actually so gorgeous
Sara Belic don’t feel bad for us. We do things differently but we’re just like u. I have spina bifida and was raised like any other girl my age.
I was diagnosed with cerebral palsy when I was 3, after I got a life changing surgery.now I'm basically a Normal kid
Maddie Chxox wow that’s a thing??? So cooooool
Evelyn Chao are u being smart?
maddie chxox what surgery? my mom has cp and ive never heard of a procedure to correct it
Ducky1521 there’s quite a few surgeries and a simple search will bring a couple up. They all have varying degrees of success depending on the person and the severity of their illness. The surgery is usually offered to children once other types of therapies etc have failed, although I don’t believe that anyone has ever been cured from it I know there are fixes to ease the severity. (Not trying to be rude just thought I’d shed some light)
Same I have cerebral palsy but when I was younger I had surgery on my legs and back to remove something I’m unsure what but I’m now ten years old and able to walk with support or a walker mine has a seat on the back and me and my friends laugh because they push me around on it when I’m tired and I do stupid little tricks it’s so funny 😆 and I’m starting to take multiple steps on my own and I’m just about to move up to a comprehensive school and I’ve always been to a normal school plus I learnt to horse ride do gymnastics and football and I do shows in my drama school
5:13 “I have one shoe on!” So cute.
my niece has CP and she just got married and so will Finlay she is so cute!!!! big hugs for you darling your a very special girl!
My cousin has cerebral palsy and he will never walk or talk again 😭 he is 12 and he has to eat through a tube he basically lives in bed unless he uses with wheelchair and that is rarely because of his seizures
AsmrLovely I wish him the best of luck in life
I have a cousin who is experiencing the exact same thing, and he's only a year or two younger than yours... It's heartbreaking. :(
Sorry about your cousin but thankfully my sister only has it her lower body and it’s only moderit
Yuna264 when u said year or two you would normally know how old your cousin would be or younger for someone bye subtraction soo I think ur lying no hate my opinion
@jaiden💘 I feel so sorry for your cousin. I hope life works out well for him...I know exactly what it's like to have seizures because I have epilepsy and for a while I was in a wheelchair. All the best to your whole family😘💜
If I ever have a baby girl her name will definitely be Finley it is a beautiful name💕 and Finley is such a beautiful girl💕
God bless this beautiful family!!
I absolutely adore her she brings a smile to everyone's face and is such a happy and positive kid. Her disability doesn't define who she is as a person but it's what makes her stand out and be the light in a dark room 💕
What an angel! Finley is beautiful and she is so blessed to have such an incredible mommy and daddy ❤Such an inspiring story for everyone. Thank you!
Can you tell me your instagrams page?? My daughter Mia has CP and the same walker. She would love to see this ❤️
Hi Kim! Their Instagram is @fifiandmo
Aww I feel bad for her and she SO CUTE!🥰
I hope she becomes a model!!!!
Precious mom and you loved your daughter very much and never left her all on her own
I can FEEL in my gut the process of mobilizing strength that has gone on, and continues to go on, in this family!
The quality of the bonds, the determination to focus on what sustains happiness, what restores it.
Tremendous leadership.
Plzzz pin this: I have a little sister who is 8 years old and she also has cerebral palsy and my mom is one of Finley's followers and I'm always asking my mom for her phone so I could see Finley's and her mom💟💟 Finley is sooooo adorable😍😍😍
I have a Big sister Who has cp too! (:
@AA AA how is that hard to believe, my cousins always tried to find others who has a family member or does have cerebral palsy to follow or become friends with
couldn't imagine giving her up as a child :(
just breaks my heart :(
I get that and relate. But what we’ve gotta tell ourselves is that those parents might not have been ready to care for a child with a disability and she ended up with amazing parents ❤️
@@ely_wannadie that is true. She found a better home with bigger arms to hug her
@@ipKonfig love that 💕
She is just to cute. 🙏❤️😭
Finley is beautiful and so sweet. She melted my heart. May she overcome certain obstacles in her life, may God bless
She is so beautiful and thanks for making videos, you are inspiration for families having CP CHILD.

She is an adorable little girl
I love the name Finley! My dog is named that! (I’m not trying to call your daughter a dog) she is Veary cute!
Alana Finley lol
I have a minor version as cerebral palsy. I wear leg braces almost every day. This was very inspiring and I’d bless that girl. I realize that I take a lot of things for granted. If anyone has this obstacle or any other obstacle in heir life please never give up and have a lot of hope.
Nothing stops her She is a strong beautiful girl
That's amazing I'm proud of her I have CP as well! ^^ Great inspiring video!

She is so adorable and I also have cerebral palsy but I was 7 months old when I was in a car accident my doctor told my parents that I wouldn't live past 18 and now I'm almost 50 years old. Don't give up on her
You are such a patient loving momma!! She was always meant to be yours!! God Bless!!
