About Roll With Cole & Charisma:
Hey everyone! We’re Cole & Charisma. Since the start of our relationship we've gotten a lot of questions about how we make things work as not only an interracial couple, but an interabled one as well. There are certainly differences, and despite them we have a great time, all the time! On this channel, you’ll find travel vlogs, Q&As, couple challenges, how-to/educational videos and more. We started this channel to bring people into our lives so we can answer some questions about how we navigate the world. We’ll show you behind-the-scenes stuff people typically don't see, and hopefully raise awareness surrounding accessibility and dating in a wheelchair. You'll quickly see in our episodes that we're all about positivity, inclusion, and keeping a great attitude no matter your circumstances, so if that's what you're into, you're in the right place!
Thanks for watching!! Let us know if this better helps you understand the difference!!
Hi Cole and Charisma I have a Question. I watch also Zack his Channel and I wondered why Zack has a leg bag for when he has to pee and you don't have it. Did you have had it too in the past???? And is that because of your operation with the botox??
It definitely did. Very eye opening.
I think it will definitely help! Often we, as health care practitioners, forget that our every day language is not every day language for everyone else :)
I have Cerebral Palsy.
I am an Advocate with Access Living of Metropolitan Chicago
I love how the internet wants to correct your diagnosis. Pretty sure you know you're a quadriplegic. I learned a lot today! Thank you! ❤️
yeah like a doctors, nurses and other health professionals who studied this stuff got his diagnosis wrong this whole time
Samee
America in a nutshell, if u are american, u r god's favorite so why shouldnt u know everything better a professional
@@kgspvgsp7569not all Americans feel that way 🤦♀️
You Two are changing the world, one video at a time! Blessings to you!
Ikr I just learned something and it did spark something else, but still
As someone in the medical space, specifically sports medicine world, this video is SO important. More people need to be educated on the differences, we can all be doing better to understand each other :) you guys did an awesome job of organizing the information and explaining it clearly with those examples!
As a software engineer I can tell you there is a lot that can be done for people with physical disability. Something as simple as a robotic hand that your actual hand can be attached to. Something to support your spine area that won't hurt you, etc.
Whenever you were speaking about the difference between Cole and Cruise, it made me realize just how amazing the body is...how crazy that a very slight difference in location has such an affect of function
Thanks for educating and being great to your viewers!
Thanks for the video very edifying, I see handsome Cole,I don't see quadriplegic. Stay positive.
so glad you clarified this im an incomplete quad and I walk etc I always ge people come up to me and say what happened to your leg im like nothing Im a quadriplegic there response how are you walking then, so frustrating awesome video as always
Yes! We hope this video helps people really understand! No spinal cord injury is the same!
Roll with Cole & Charisma definitely every injury is unique
You guys are such AWESOME ambassadors and educators, and you did this in such a positive and easy-to-understand manner! Thanks to all of your friends who helped, the demonstrations were so instructive. Love y’all!
SixBlindKids omg I love your channel! I love to see the support from other CZcamsrs on here! Love y’all ♥️
This is great information!! My mother recently became a paraplegic and I can't wait to show her this video. Thank you for not only being a super cute couple but educational as well!!
"Hello, this Runett!
I just love you guys! I'm a T-3 paraplegic 50 year female. I am enjoying your definition of all the the level of damage of the functionality of being a quadriplegic and paraplegic complete and incomplete and core and no core Great job!"
Hey everyone! I'm a para! I have Spina bifida! My paralysis is at T10-L1. I loved this video Cole and Charisma!
My bullet from where i was robbed and shot is at T10
@Brian i have spina bifida as well
I also have Spina Bifida!!
Desiree Mossberger I have Spina Bifida, too. 🙌🏽
I also have Spina Bifida and I think mine is T12 L1 which I think is just below the waist but if any one knows for sure correct me if I'm wrong
Loved the sarcasm in the beginning. 🤣👊🏽......The fact that you guys even have to explain ....is mind blowing. People can be so insensitive. Like your team of doctors wouldn’t have to told you what you have. Like you just diagnosed yourself after your injury. Stay positive guys. 👊🏽👌🏽
My mom has been a complete paraplegic for 25 years now. She has no core whatsoever. Makes me happy to see videos like these because normal people don't know the daily struggle that these people go through. My mom seems happy to outsiders. But I see the pain, depression, anxiety, and different medications that she goes through. It's easy to say not to dwell on the issue and to look on the bright side. But in reality, no matter what, there's plenty of days that that person will fall into depression out of nowhere. But as long as the person can pull themselves out of it they will continue living their best life. My mom has raised four adult females all alone. And I think that makes her superwoman! Love this video 😘💋
I’m glad you did this! Such a great way to handle this discussion and continue education on this topic.
One of my late husband's was a T3 paraplegic, we had a blast. There's a downside of loving someone in a chair, the remarks, questions that are too personal. They didn't understand why. I never really see the chair. I only saw the love in his heart. I miss him daily
I was surprised to see people being lifted rather then a hoist being used, I am a home carer and use various hoists depending on who I am visiting and their level of disability. Great informative video.
So glad I found this channel recently. I have Spina Bifida (but I have use of my legs) and I love to see that, even though you may have a spinal cord injury, you are still able to get on with your daily lives as if nothing really happened with not a lot of change. I was so lucky that my spinal cord injury was not as severe as others with spina bifida, although I still have some problems regarding organ function such as bowel and bladder/kidneys. Love the channel, keep up the great work!
This was so extremely helpful! Your approach of educating the people shows how truly genuine you guys are!
So glad you shined some light on these differences! Having Spina Bifida myself(L4-L5), i've spent my whole live explaining these differences to people. Your story continues to inspire me and keep me positive so thank you for that! Love y'all!
I love the sarcasm in the beginning lol! You guys are amazing and I love how quickly you've grown! Thank you for the awareness and info! If you want a nose I have a channel too! ;)
I love how you two look at each other. Anyone can see the deep respect and love in this relationship. Thank you for this informative video.
Great video! It was awesome seeing a big collaboration of abilities! :D Thank you for reaching out!
Charisma, you are going to be an amazing OT! I work in an acute hospital as an OT and I have to work with folks who's injury is brand new (days old and often am the person to help process the injury with them). Your and Cole's dedication to education and overall support is so incredibly helpful beyond words. Thank you so much!
Cole and Charisma I believe you!Cole it is sweet that you explained.It doesn't make since for you to have made all that up.Nobody knows your body but you and what you went through.So proud of you guys keep smiling ,because that's what make me want to watch your channel more and more!💜😊My favorite CZcams couple.
I love how you broke this down, and made the information so easy to understand. Unfortunately, I did not know that there was so much that went into the diagnoses of quadriplegia and paraplegia. With that being said, I’ve also never felt so entitled to tell another human being that they were wrong when I am not a trained professional AND never walked a day in the individual’s shoes. I am so sorry that you have to deal with the dark side of social media. Please continue to make more videos, because you are truly making a positive impact when it comes to increasing awareness on SCI, and the beauty of a healthy loving relationship. I love you both, and I pray for nothing but God’s absolute best for your lives!!!
Y'all are gonna be at 150k subs in no time! Congrats!
Informative and very interesting!...Most of your viewers, as myself never really knew any specifics of paralysis or the difference in a quad/paraplegic..complete/incomplete...We have been educated!....Thanks to you Cole, Charisma..and all the participants who contributed clips for this vlog...Great job!
Hi Cole and Charisma,
As someone who has quadriplegic cerebral palsy, this was a very important video, and so informative. Thank you for educating people.
I was waiting on this video. Thank you guys, I have a better understanding now. Will continue researching and reading to be more knowledgeable.
Glad you clarified the differences of Para and Quad. I needed this!!♥️♥️♥️ Thanks for sharing C & C!!!
WOW very very informative. This video has taught me so much. Thank you guys. Love you lots😍😍
I'm an incomplete paraplegic and I'm so happy you did this video it helps out everyone, in the long run, to understand we are all unique in our injuries who share a common goal of being understood loyal subscribers keep on rolling with cole and charisma because you also show as well as teach
This is really amazing and informative! My dad was actually paralyzed between L4 & L5, and he spent 6 months in rehabilitation relearning how to walk. 23 years later he's had a complete spinal fusion, and is still able to walk! Thank you guys for all you do. My favorite couple around
my wife had quadriplegic and i take care of her more than 3 years today, and i love her so much, no mater ho look she is
First !! Needed , informative and timely video!
Really thorough! Down with the thickness!
You took us to school and you were thorough and concise. Keep up the good work and "NEVER" waiver.
Knowledge is power!
Thanks for the well presented video full of facts
Thanks for explaining. I have spine arthritis, herniated disc, 2 back surgeries, SS and severe right foraminal stenosis. I have to use a rollator. I also have peripheral neuropathy which affects my balance. Also 2-level ACDF C4-5/5-6 with plate and screws. I use to be a medical transcriptionist and I had to give up my job that I loved so well after 34 years. It is hard to depend on others as they truly do not understand how hard it is to get around and do things you would like to do on your own but we need help. You two amaze me and Cole you are so lucky to have a strong person by your side like Charisma and your family and her family. You two make it work seemingly easy but I know it is not. Keep up the good public relations and stay strong.
I have learned so much from your videos. Until I started watching your channel I never knew the difference between a quad and a para. I just never thought about it. The examples were great.
Very very informative! My 7 year old daughter has Cerebral Palsy. She loves watching your videos because she sees Cole and thinks it’s awesome that he is in a wheelchair like her. Thanks for sharing your story and positivity!
From your T4 complete para buddy in Dallas, thank you. This was great!
Very interesting video . Thanks Cole and Charisma👍🏽🙏🏽
this was so well done! thanks for the info
I’m so impressed with the education you guys are teaching us. Such a great team you are.
Omg thank you !! I follow many people mentioned and work as a caregiver for someone with a spinal cord injury, but don't ask her about it. Thank you for the education !!!
You are both two very intelligent individuals. I'm glad that you both did your research surrounding the differences in the diagnoses. Too many people on the internet, CZcams, Facebook, etc... tend to put everyone into the same category. This was extremely informative. Thank you!
This video helped me so much. I never quite understood to the extent of the differences. Thank you so much for making this video educating us and helping us be more understanding of what is going on with quads and Paras
Thank you so much for this, it was very clarifying! I'm a naturopath and am always looking for ways to expand my knowledge base and gain a deeper understanding into the lives of others. When I do have a client one day who, for example, happens to be a Quadriplegic, I can now properly interpret not only their injury and amount of function, but also to understand what they may be overcoming/working with in their day-to-day lives. Thank you again, you guys are so awesome!!
Hey guys, I'm a first time watcher of your videos and I LOVE all of the info. I have been a c6/c7 Quad since 1989 and I have explained this same stuff for years. Great info and personalities. GREAT JOB !!!
Love the edits you did Cole! Super informative
Thanks Cole and Charisma!!! I have learned so much about quads and paras!!
You knocked it out of the park. well organized and done with feeling Great job..your Cali friend Paul
Educational, informational and insightfully thorough. Thank you!
Fantastic job, really informative. Great to see Charisma so comfortable and confident too.
Awesome folks! Thank you for your amazing positivity, your hearts, knowledge, willingness and desire to educate/help others. Much Love from California!
Thank you Cole and Charisma 💜 This video is very helpful. Love across the miles to you both.
Many thanks to Cole and Charisma and all your friends for this most informative video. Well done.
Wow. This was so interesting and informative. Thanks for you and your friends being so open and transparent.
I have mild cerebral palsy and I never knew I am part of the Quad squad. I do get the 'shakes' in my legs often. I just recently discovered your channel (3 days ago) and watching each video from the oldest to the newest. Team positive and CC squad.
Awesome!
Having watched a ton of your videos about fun times and staying positive, I find this video in a league of its own with all the different levels and types of injuries. As always thank you guys for the work you put out there for us to learn a bit more about the unknown.
Love you guys and stay positive!!!
Thanks Cole and Charisma for educating us on the difference, its greatly appreciatped, and now i have a wider and clearer idea of the difference. You guys are awsome, keep up the great work youguys are doing. 💋💖💞💋
You guys are awesome! I love your videos, and this one is a great resource. I’ve been a practicing Occupational Therapist for 2 years and I’m so glad I found your videos. That sip and puff reacher is cool!
I will definitely share this video with students, co-workers, and patients! Thanks! Best of luck in OT school Charisma! 👍
I have hemiplegia cerebral palsy. I am part-time wheelchair user. In May 2017, I graduated with bachelors degree in Accounting/Finance. 😀 I love you guys ❤️
OMG, I am so glad that you put this out. This has helped me to understand much better. Thank you so much!!!
THANK U THANK U Getting everyone in this vlog was so great yall.
The good thing about you guys is that you all don't tell most of the stuff about you all but use your time to educate others of other people out there an how they go along their day to day errands no matter what the circumstances may be.
I'm a hemiplegic due to stroke but your channel has been so helpful & validating. You guys are the best!
Excellent video and information! I enjoyed the presentation (and all your videos!)
I've been following you two for a while now! I just shared this video with my class before our spinal cord injury nursing exam, thanks for all the info!
I've been schooled between the quad and para. Enjoyed this video and thanks for posting.
Thank you for educating us!!!
Thanks for the clarification. This was awesome!
Thank you for doing this video. My brother has cerebral palsy and can walk and ride a bike through the miracle of surgery. He can do things with his left hand but his right hand/wrist is like Cole’s in the way that he can’t open his hand. Watching your videos has made me want to further research his CP more after all these years.
I tend to multi task; both physically and mentally. When said you were a quadriplegic, I filed it away in my brain as “data received”. I’ve never noticed the comments telling you you were a paraplegic.
Very nice technical information to add to my “brain file”. Thank you. Continue to be awesome 😎
Although I can't believe you guys are still explain quad vs para. I van really appreciate all the information/education you just gave us. You guys are the best at educating the public on SCI. Love you guys. 😘😘😘❤💜💙💚
Your posts are always so positive!
You guys are amazing and such a good description for those that didn’t understand. I found you recently from Squirmy and Grubs 🇨🇦🤗
This is so facinating!!! Thank you for this level of edication!!!
Very informative. Love the content. It’s so exciting to see the growth of your channel. I remember your 20k announcement. Keep it up!
Fantastic job editing and being so thoroughly informative!
Great Video Y’all. I’m an RN and I learned so much from your video. I’ll tell you that in our classes no one explained it like you guys. Very educational.
Hey guys. Is Cole much better.. My most favourite people in the world. Keep being the beautiful people you are❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very educational video, done with just enough humor. You’ve come a long way, Charisma and Cole!
Another great video Cole and charisma.
Really good video Cole & Charisma! Thank you! I really liked the fact that you illustrated your examples with footage of people. Thanks to your video I learned that tetraplegia and quadraplegia were the same thing!
Im currently a pre-nursing student and found this so interesting! I love your videos!
Thank you! I have a daughter with spina bifida oculta who has had 3 major spinal surgeries for tethered cord....she can still walk...but sometimes with great pain and difficulty....she also has a neurogenic bladder and bowel.
I just appreciate your education of people...who can be so insensitive of other people who are exactly like them.
I’m more amazed that there are this many quads and paras with videos like these lol. It’s nice to see that they make them both for themselves and to teach people about them both. Even doctors studying can watch videos like these to learn easier than just reading about the differences.
It was very educational and as always love your two's positive attitude
This was so educational! Thanks for showing and telling us about the proper terminology. It's a lot more involved than I thought!
Thank you for using your platform to bring awareness and educate! Good job guys :)
All your videos are great but this video is awesome! I love the informative yet simplistic and easy to follow examples given to help us understand the differences!!! Thank you!!
Wow!!! quite informative. After discovering your channel I did a little research to become more aware about these types of injuries. However, the visual display you provided makes it easier to understand. I love you both more each day. 💝❤💕😚👏👏👏
This is a great educational video. (Without the test!) thanks for taking the time to explain things and thanks to the volunteers that helped show differences.
You both are great telling us the difference about these. Thank you!
I'm not sure how I came across your channel, but I love it. Great videos guys, keep it up!
Thank you for this, this is so informative.. and I am a paraplegic and some people do not understand incomplete, and complete. and what spasms are. the see your leg spasm and think you can move your legs and walk. I thank you for this video. And by the way , you guys are a sweet and awesome beautiful couple.. Love your compassion and drive and sense of humor. God bless you both, and continue to do what you are doing.
Thank you for this educational video! You 2 are awesome.
