She passed away two days ago after a stroke caused by a blood clot. She’d had a successful lung transplant just a week ago right before the stroke. It’s bittersweet. She’s in a better place now.
I am absolutely floored at how mature, poised, and well spoken she was at only 14. I mean... articulate, comfortable, engaging, authentic, funny, the list goes on. God bless Claire!
sky blue if that's how you view God, then it shows how much you really know him. The true example of being a Christian is a person who devotes their life to building a personal relationship with God, meaning it's suppose to grow, and strengthen as time passes, just like any other relationship in your life, it's a two way street... he can't speak to you if you don't want to be spoken to. You sound hurt and bitter towards Christians or God and I'm sorry for the bad experiences you had in the past, but you are right, it's not about religion. Religion is not personal or intimate... the closer you try and get to God the more you learn what his nature is really like and what he's REALLY all about. What I find interesting is when other people have so much hate towards religions, those are usually the same people who's religion is themselves, their jobs, their spouses,children... most of us have a modern day god, we just don't admit that we're religious after all 😉 take care ☺
"You will never truly get what you want , until you want what you have". That' how I discovered her. And I come back today she passed away and I am such in a froze state of mind. She was, is and will forever be such an influence on me for the rest of my life. How can we love someone that you've never met so much, I love her so much I am so thankful she help me so much I want the world to know that such an angel was there... I can't even put my words together She was everything she will NEVER be forgotten. Thank You for everything Claire 💜
She had a powerful charisma, was such an authentic, intelligent and creative young woman. She touched a lot of lives by her message of positivity and acceptance. I'm glad we had the opportunity to impact hers and her family's with the fundraiser. She will be missed and we'll think about her forever. She was the representation of the best qualities, the best part of what being a human means in an area where people are so easily the worst version of the themselves. It won't necessarily make sense to anyone, but it does to me.
She was perfect just perfect. She has no idea what impact she left on lives of ton. She existed for a reason, for the well fare of others. And before gaining her wings she complained the aim of her existence. More power to her parents and family. Love, XoXo
She's a beautiful young lady that is more knowledgeable than most 30 year olds. I was fortunate to be one of the many Respiratory Therapists to take care of her at Miller Children's Hospital in Long Beach, California. I totally understood the reasoning behind her refusing her treatments with her vest. I've seen her father several times. I would work night shift and always come see her around 9 pm. As a teen I respected her time and we would work out what time she would be "offline" with her friends and ready to do her treatments. These treatments are no jokes. Her last treatment lasted between 30 minutes to an hour depending on how she felt. I had many conversations with her during these treatments. She is an AMAZING young woman. Just a couple years later I would find out that 3 of my 4 children were diagnosed with CF. We were already overwhelmed with our youngest child being autistic. So now we have 3 with CF, and 1 with autism. She is an inspiration and I enjoyed every conversation we ever had.
I watch this when I’m sad. Thank you for the beautiful impact you’ve had on my life. I remember in the last video you made you said you really wanted to live and experience more. So I vowed to not kill myself and to live for the people like Claire who didn’t get to live. I love you. Fly high. 💕
I'm currently in the hospital with my 11th lung collapse awaiting a surgery and somehow never knew Claire had a Ted talk, through her young age she managed to bring more awareness about Cystic Fibrosis than anyone ever has. She may have passed too soon but she helped drastically increase the life expectancy of everyone else with this illness. 13 months after she passed a breakthrough in cystic fibrosis medicine came out called Trikafta as a result of the awareness and funding the CF foundation was able to use for research. In my doctor visit before having Trikafta my lung functions were at 38% and the doctors started the conversation with me about a lung transplant. The next visit just weeks after I was on the medicine my lung functions increased to 58% and said I may never need a transplant and if I do it wouldn't be for decades. The medicine only works for about 90% of mutation types so I'm not sure if she would've been able to use it but it's heartbreaking that she didn't make it to at least see the medicine come out and see the true impact of her legacy. I'm so thankful for her as well as countless others are, Rest In Peace.
I just found her tonight and as someone living with a chronic illness she's so so incredible. She has the right mindset and she's completely right. I've got Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Hypermobility type. Eds isn't terminal like cf but it is scary and it is very real. Being sick all the time can be scary but we do live. We are people. And it's OK to ask us questions. I promise we aren't some magical creatures!
Hi! do you know Martina from the channel "Simon and martina"? they make funny Videos and martina also has EDS; maybe checking out her Videos could help you a little bit? i am so sorry for you ...
I've got ehlers-danlos too. I'm going through the hardest year of my life in terms of health and it made me realize that I will never live a normal life. I will feel more pain, I will have difficulties doing things like walk, and simply grabbing things, but that's the body that I have, and many people have it worse. This girl is amazing, she is still alive and happy, and I realised that I can be happy too.
I have EDS too, and it affects every part of my life day to day and has taken so much from me, the pain is unbearable a lot of the time, but finding other people faces adversities with their health too help me find the strength to keep going and know I’m not alone. This disease is rare so I feel alone in this struggle a lot so it’s nice to know that I am not alone in EDS. Although it’s something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Hope you all are doing as well as you can be!
Her personality was so much larger than life itself. I feel touched by her higher power. Only discovered her here yesterday. I love what she is saying about illness, and it helps me want to think of my invisible illnesses in a new context. She sheds light where there is darkness that is for sure. RIP beauty
I can't believe she's actually gone, im glad she lived her life to the fullest she could even knowing her time was limited. R.i.p and hope you're at peace sweet angel. You're helping someone in need.
What a lovely young woman she was! I understand fully what she means by a health problem enriching your life! Such a shame that this gem of a human being is no longer with us!
Rest in piece, sweet girl. You made it to 21 and lived a richer life than most of us because you made every day count. But now the struggle is over. You will definitely never be forgotten. ❤️
I came across her just a few weeks before she died and hearing of her passing was gutt wrenching. I feel so much for those who've been following her for so long. ❤
I feel the same way about cancer as you feel about cystic fibrosis. It's brought so many good things into my life! I want to be you when I grow up (and I'm 56 - ha ha)! You're the most inspiring person I've ever come across. GOOOOOO Claire!!!
She is absolutely brilliant. A beacon for many, her beauty is unmatched, her intellect untapped. I think every person with depression or illness should listen to this soul.
I've just been diagnosed this week with multiple sclerosis. I'm going to see it as a door opening instead of closing. I love her laugh. Very Beautiful, smart young lady. Has totally changed my outlook on my MS. Love what you CAN do!!!! An illness can make your life more rich and fulfilling x
I miss this girl so much! She was the kind of girl you’d want to be friends with, especially since she wasn’t afraid to be weird or share her experiences about Cystic Fibrosis! With videos like this though, they are reminder that a part of her will always be with us! RIP Claire Wineland!
i can't even imagine thinking you're gonna die in 4 years when you're 14. It is amazing she could handle this situation when she was actually a teenager at the same time. I'm 15 now and I can't imagine living my life while knowing my life expectancy is just 3 more years. Now she is 20 and she has been a huge inspiration for me, I'd so like to know her in person. She is awesome.
I live with a physical illness. It's not terminal, but yet it consumes my life. I'm too embarrassed to say what it is but it causes extremely painful stomach cramps about once a month. I tried taking medication to help, but it was a medication where I had to change according to what felt right for me. Thinking about my daily dosage was all I thought about. I couldn't go out with friends, I couldn't focus in school, and I could barely eat. It was hard and I'm trying to learn to stop letting it take over. I know you all don't care but it feels good putting it out there. To all of you there who have an illness, never ever let it consume your life like it did to mine.
She's amazing! I lover her to pieces just for this! ♥♥♥ "You will never get what you want until you want what you have". "Cherish every second and make the best out of what you have and, sometimes, the best of what you have is what you have. "
this video almost makes me mad. because here I am, a healthy young woman, newly married, beautiful friends who are like family, amazing family who are my rock. I have every reason to be full of joy, and yet I continue to battle with depression and anxiety my whole life. her talk really hit me "if I go to college that'll be true joy. if I get married that's true joy, if I don't have a job or education that is true empty and loneliness." such a messed up mentality! so caught up in our own selfish ungrateful unappreciated selves instead of empowering ourselves to make the choice to change our perspective and be thankful for what we have. wow. so amazed. she brought me to tears. I'm so happy I found her UA-cam channel by accident.
this girl just made me feel so much better about my severe displastic spondylolesthesis. I'm 15 now and I wish I had seen this four years ago when I had spinal surgery. She is a such a great speaker too
Rest in Peace Claire.🙏 You were such an amazing speaker and life teacher and exemplar. I'm so happy that you lived as long as you did and educated so many people.💚
Awww, God Bless her...I pray she defies the odds and lives as long and happy a life as possible...I wish that for everyone! I’ve got a chronic autoimmune illness and she helps put things in perspective. What a wise young lady!
R.I.P. Claire, you still inspire me to this day. I miss your words and wisdom, and although I never knew you in life, I still mourn your loss as if we were old friends.
what a beautiful person! Proud of you, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest! I will do something about helping the CF cause,. rest in peace, you are well remembered.
Rip Claire. Omg I watch your videos and I just stare at you. You are so beautiful and an amazing a motivating person. We all miss you breathe east sweet heart 💝

steve hollingshead really!!!
steve hollingshead so now she's 20? How cruel time is :'(
UNIQUE SEKAR KINANTHY yes, she is 20 and still making videos ♡ check out "tub talks" on UA-cam
She passed away two days ago after a stroke caused by a blood clot. She’d had a successful lung transplant just a week ago right before the stroke. It’s bittersweet. She’s in a better place now.
If there is a god up there,thank you so much for letting her live because she has been one of the biggest inspirations to me
i found out about her today, shes emotionally uplifting
there is indeed
Medical science is why she is alive today.
TJazz MCNeil That's for sure..thanks for correcting me
yes!
I am absolutely floored at how mature, poised, and well spoken she was at only 14. I mean... articulate, comfortable, engaging, authentic, funny, the list goes on. God bless Claire!
Man, I just want to hug her...life is so unfair. A beautiful human being.
I feel the exact same way.
I feel the exact same way.

sky blue you sound just as crazy as any god-fearing nutjob out there...
Pretty funny you don't see your own views as "religious"...
Claire needs to be a comedian. She is literally one of my favorite people in the whole world!
That would have been neat, I haven't found it yet, but i've been searching seldomly for it.
"You will never truly get what you want , until you want what you have". That' how I discovered her. And I come back today she passed away and I am such in a froze state of mind.

You were a gift to the world. Wise beyond your years.
A mature, wise, and smart lady inside her tiny body. Bless your soul Claire..
Claire is one of the only youtubers who genuinely inspires me to be a better person.

It is not about how long you live, it is about what you do while you are alive. She will always be alive with those who's lives she changed.
Claire Wineland is the ultimate reason I still keep fighting and living the life with Cystic Fibrosis that I'm proud of!
14 going on 40. So much wisdom in this child’s mind, it’s incredible.
May Claire Winland Rest In Peace
I have cystic fibrosis and I miss Claire so much she was such an inspiration in the CF community 💛 Rest In Peace Claire Wineland 💛

*And now she's in a better place R.I.P.*
There is no better place she's a skeleton under dirt
indeed
Aaaahhhh. I know this is 4 years ago but she is soooo beautiful. I'm so glad I came across her channel.
Her personality was so much larger than life itself. I feel touched by her higher power. Only discovered her here yesterday. I love what she is saying about illness, and it helps me want to think of my invisible illnesses in a new context. She sheds light where there is darkness that is for sure. RIP beauty
Whenever life gets tough I think if her now .. everything she says is so true and so wise. RIP claire.
I can't believe she's actually gone, im glad she lived her life to the fullest she could even knowing her time was limited. R.i.p and hope you're at peace sweet angel. You're helping someone in need.
She's noticeably intelligent. Love this human!
What a lovely young woman she was!
I understand fully what she means by a health problem enriching your life!
Such a shame that this gem of a human being is no longer with us!
Rest in piece, sweet girl. You made it to 21 and lived a richer life than most of us because you made every day count. But now the struggle is over. You will definitely never be forgotten. ❤️
I came across her just a few weeks before she died and hearing of her passing was gutt wrenching.
I feel so much for those who've been following her for so long. ❤
RIP Claire, you are a real inspiration
She said that she's probably not gonna live past 18 and she is 18 now 😔
😔
Maybe the circumstances change. I know it varies, but the average age is 35 years old...
Jaeden Rotondo good! :)
+iidass ya, it's being going up over the years.
She said when she was a baby it was 12, then it moved up
Rip Claire the world lost an angel last week.
Angels are just imaginary friends just for you to know.
Claire,
I'm friends with your dad and although we've never met I wanted to let you know how inspiring your talk was.
Chuck
RIP Claire - I saw the news today and I knew I remembered you from somewhere.
I love her so much. And this is really food for thought, I think everyone has their crucible - we have to go through the flames so we can rise.
Going through all her old videos
Rip😢❤
I feel the same way about cancer as you feel about cystic fibrosis. It's brought so many good things into my life! I want to be you when I grow up (and I'm 56 - ha ha)! You're the most inspiring person I've ever come across. GOOOOOO Claire!!!
You're a beautiful person and such an inspiration! Could listen to you speak all day, every day.
What a sweet, perfumed and incredible girl this angel was. What a loss for all.
She is absolutely brilliant. A beacon for many, her beauty is unmatched, her intellect untapped. I think every person with depression or illness should listen to this soul.
how come this doesn't have millions of views?
We have to SHARE SHARE
This was a very inspiring video. Spoke incredibly well for a 14 year old. This is why people with CF continue to fight.
Shes truly amazing
I could listen to her voice all day ! It’s so relaxing and beautiful ! RIP angel ❣️😢
Amazing that she wasn't even a trained speaker till she was 18. Sad she passed at 21.
1% chance of surviving! WOW! What a true blessing she is still here today. :))
This is a wonderful speech from a wonderful person.
I've just been diagnosed this week with multiple sclerosis. I'm going to see it as a door opening instead of closing. I love her laugh. Very Beautiful, smart young lady. Has totally changed my outlook on my MS. Love what you CAN do!!!! An illness can make your life more rich and fulfilling x
One of the most inspirational people in this world 💕❤️🙏🏼

Alara I think she's 18 actually 🤔 But I could be wrong
RIP Claire! Your infectious bright light will continue to inspire forever more! Xxx
Aw... she was such an inspiration and she speaks well then most adults.
I live with a physical illness. It's not terminal, but yet it consumes my life. I'm too embarrassed to say what it is but it causes extremely painful stomach cramps about once a month.

Whenever I'm sad I watch videos of her she's so positive and happy despite her situation it inspires me
She's amazing! I lover her to pieces just for this! ♥♥♥
"You will never get what you want until you want what you have". "Cherish every second and make the best out of what you have and, sometimes, the best of what you have is what you have. "
It’s so surreal to watch her now.
It’s crazy to believe she’s so young here too
This girl is so cool. I love watching her vids. So proud of her for doing a Ted talk!!
No thumb down? Faith in the world restored!
4 now😥
Frank Einstein 28 now WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO ??
Reason in peace, Dear Claire, and may your messages remain forever on the internet.
You’re never going to be happy with what you get unless you are happy with what you have!
I hope Claire's beautiful soul rests in piece
Yes in pieces she is a skeleton now
you are an absolute blessing
this video almost makes me mad. because here I am, a healthy young woman, newly married, beautiful friends who are like family, amazing family who are my rock. I have every reason to be full of joy, and yet I continue to battle with depression and anxiety my whole life. her talk really hit me "if I go to college that'll be true joy. if I get married that's true joy, if I don't have a job or education that is true empty and loneliness." such a messed up mentality! so caught up in our own selfish ungrateful unappreciated selves instead of empowering ourselves to make the choice to change our perspective and be thankful for what we have. wow. so amazed. she brought me to tears. I'm so happy I found her UA-cam channel by accident.
Rest in peace angle. You truely made a difference.
Angel*

Awesome stuff! Great speach! Wonderful theories & amazing perspective!
She is right, what a difference having the right perspective is. And it can be so hard to think that way sometimes.
Bless you little angel
Awesome attitude. You don't let it define the boundaries of your spirit, or think of yourself as a victim. Very inspiring!
What a fantastic young lady The world is just not fair
She is so inspiring. What an amazing Girl! Such a positive mind set. I Loved everything you said, even if this was years and years ago.
