    I love how you said "that doesn't mean EVERYONE with disabilities doesn't need help" because there are WAY too many people who make those comments about how "they saw someone in a chair last week n THEY could do blah blah blah do why can't YOU" 😠😠😠😠😠 nothing infuriates me more honestly.
    My dad daid the same thing n told me i "was milking it cos HE has SEEN Paralympians run a marathon with no legs" blah blah blah...
    People with disabilities lile everyone else WITHOUT them are all individuals and UNIQUE in every way especially in their abilities and disabilities.
    There are also WAYYYYY too many disabled people that think they have a right to speak for all disabled people when speaking about themselves or their own disabilities and how thet affect them.
    For all these reasons and more i LOVE how you approach it all.
    Im watching because I have spina bifida and type one diaistomatomyelia and am a single parent to 3 young kids n have for years now wanted to do a blog about our lives etc and am trying to pluck up the courage to do so and gain some information etc.
    Thanks gor Sharing i wish you all the best ❤️

    I am 71 and just recently into my first wheelchair. I find my expectations of myself are far more extensive of what I can actually accomplish due to chronic pain issues. This is demoralizing and self defeating at the same time.

    As Danielle's roommate in college, I will attest that she snoozes the alarm at least 4 times every morning :) and that we often considered hiding in our room during the 14th, 15th and 16th false fire alarm in our 100 year old dorm. But even more so, the only thing that she needed extra help with was getting upstairs in the old buildings that hadn't been quite updated for accessibility. I think we only dropped her once. Sorry about that Danielle!

    it must have been so hard to keep a straight face while filming the "expectations" part of the video xD it cracked me up so much because I relate :P I was also born with spina bifida and use a wheelchair aswell.. and people usually dont expect me to be able to do a lot myself :P

    How do you not have to brakes on on the chair when you get in?! Every time I've tried to get in with the brakes off I end up falling out!

      The worst is when I have the brakes on, but the tires are a little low on air, so when I put my bodyweight on the chair (even though the brakes are on), the chair moves, and I go down!

    Hi Danielle - just wondered if you've come across an American product called 'Pants-up easy' - worth googling? It looks like a very effective aid for wheelchair users to get their pants/jeans round their backside more easily, in or out of the chair... all the best John.

      ...maybe they thought it was unrealistic or came off as making fun of people that can't because many people not paralyzed can do things? It can be a touchy subject. I'm not agreeing with that per se, but just answering your question. It was definitely entertaining though.

    This video is good but it is very harmful for everyone who needs help

    • @daniellability
      @daniellability  Před 5 lety +3

      It's not meant to be harmful at all. My intention is to show that not all disabilities are the same and some require more assistance than others. Everyone is different, and people shouldn't assume that everyone needs the same level of care. I also hope it can be an encouragement to people who have disabilities who aren't sure if they can be independent or not.

    • @Ladyonwheels-vi6ch
      @Ladyonwheels-vi6ch Před 3 lety

      This video is no means harmful, there are many disabled people like Danielle who can be totally Independent, I really relate to this video, I have been a wheelchair user all my life, I am now 50 years of age and I have brought up 3 children and lived a very full and Independent life, she did state at the beginning of the video that not everyone can be. I think this video is very well done. love it. thank you Danielle, and true saying "you can't please everyone"
