    I really like this video ! It seems like Josh is your caregiver but also friend !! Did his wife and your wife go off zip lining ?? I use to watch your videos back when your mom was doing most of the care !! I’ve watched you go through relationships, finish school , it’s been great! I love seeing you living life ! Hope you guys had fun celebrating the birthday boy!!

    Hey Zack! We used to go to school together and casually dated for a bit years ago.
    Just wanted to say it’s always nice to come across your informative videos, wasn’t expecting this to pop up on my feed when I opened UA-cam today! :)
    but more importantly,
    A big congratulations to you and your beautiful wife!! I hope you guys enjoy the rest of your honeymoon and congratulations on the wedding! 🎊😊🎊💐

    I used to work as a home health RN, did everything from showering the client (using a track lift) to changing tracheostomy tube, monitoring ventilator(s), admin meds via G-tube, etc. It's not an easy job but it was very enjoyable and rewarding. Would go on trips with the client and family. Great memorable times! Josh is an excellent caregiver. Always be patience with Josh. Please don't get frustrated/angry with him. It takes a "special caring person" to be a caregiver, LPN, RN, etc.

    Hi Zack, looks like you have had a wonderful vacation…. If you have a Q&A anytime soon, I have been wondering if you still have your sweet service dog… I haven’t seen all the videos, just wondering.
    It is fantastic to see how well things have gone for you. Congrats on your marriage and having a little girl in your family. Take care.

    Thanks for sharing. At your primary residence do you have a specialized environment to support you in accomplishing your personal hygiene with less attendant support or about the same? I have been planning a residence within 3 blocks of the local university and have given a lot of thought to including a room suitable for use by a person in a wheelchair. Although I am not currently in need of support, as I age I think i would like to remain at home if my agility should decrease. Cheers

    Congratulations Josh! I just found your video randomly - you've got a new subscriber:).
    Random question - what do you use for an electric razor? I have cerebral palsy and find it a bit harder to hold a standard electric razor so I've always stuck to standard disposal ones

    Do you worry about pressure sores? I was interning in a hospitals a guy about 45 yrs old came in and his feet were in such bad shape they removed them. He was a smoker though among other bad choices.
    I don’t think the guy showered in months.
    You take good care of yourself.

    Hey Zack, really nice video. As a quad, I'm looking for my first cruise. I want to know, did you ask your cruise company for the commode chair beforehand or is it one that you take whenever you go on a trip ?
    Your answer will be really helpful !
    Best regards man :)

    • @zackcollie3364
      @zackcollie3364  6 місяців тому +1

      I brought my own. I have a portable one. But there’s a company that you can rent commode chairs, and Hoyer lift from that deliver and work with cruise lines. scootaround.com/en
