“Atrophied little giraffe boy” the fact that she can say this and they can both laugh, means they have completely come to terms with reality and still love each other. That’s real.
MrsPolidori It would be disrespectful for a stranger to say it to him, or a mere acquaintance, but someone he has a relationship with (in this case romantic but any relationship really) will know his limits and his sense of humour in regards to his disease. She knows what jokes are acceptable, which is shown by him laughing.
People look at people like Shane and ask, "How do you deal with knowing you're going to die?" and things like that, when.. we're all dying. Every day. You don't know what YOUR life expectancy is, either.
I was at the peak of physical fitness at 52. I leaned back in a chair with a good stretch. 1/2 hour later I was in the ER having a collapsed lung. You really dont know. The how is irrelevant. Its the when that has us all.
"It's not a bad thing, it's just a big thing. And big things tend to take up a lot of brain space with their bigness." So much pain and suffering in my life could have been avoided or dealt with in a much healthier way if I was wise enough to see and understand this. I'm honestly shocked. I have to start seeing things more as they are and less as they feel. Thank you for sharing this.
Shane, I literally never comment on UA-cam, but you are a damn inspiration. Your courage, honesty, and positivity are really moving. I wish you and Hannah the very best!
@Maddeline Joa It seems real. Shane is really funny, confident and deals with his problems like a man. Many girls would still reject him because od his disability, but not all of them.
@Maddeline Joa Just because you believe something is "against human nature" doesn't mean that it won't happen. There's mutation and diversity. Things change and not everyone is exactly the same. If everyone had exactly the same thoughts and decision patterns as everyone else, then you wouldn't be making such a comment to someone else and neither would I to you. Also, you mention life not being black and white, but if you actually think that, how are you so sure of your correctness of this being fake instead of considering trusting the two people actually involved in the relationship themselves.
"It's not a bad thing, it's just a big thing..."' wow, that really resonated with me and re-regulated so many things inside my head. A lot of our fears are not a bad thing, it's just big, and we have to figure out how to deal with it all. I commend you, Shane, for your intense vulnerability and honesty throughout this whole process. Sending you much love and support. xoxo.
I am from Greece. There is a little boy, almost 2 years old that suffers from the same disease. Greek people, make a big effort to gather 3.000.000 Euros so that he can travel abroad and have the same treatment . We are almost there... I hope everything goes well for you.
@Faris yes. It is Incredible how can people achieve things when they all fight for the same purpose. The boy of course has still a long way but it was a big step and success. If only love was all over the world , everything would be easier.
I have the same disease and my country doesn't support me to get treatment. But shane and hanna really make me believe that if i have SMA i can live a happy life even if i am like 20 or 30 (right now i am 15) and it really makes me happy and i wish them happy and beautiful life.
I love that Hannah takes walks. I love that she takes time for herself. Refreshed and ready. I admire that. Not many people do that ❤️ love you guys!! I am binge watching you guys xo
My grandma was like that with my grandfather when he had Alzheimer’s it was a tough thing to deal with but she had to do exactly what Hannah does. She needs to for her own mental health and overall health.
they both need to take time for themselves. I can't imagine what it's like to have something completely consume and dictate your life, for both of them. they deal with it on opposite ends of the spectrum. I think in that situation you have to make time for just yourself or it would become all consuming and could even potentially make one resent the other.
I think that's the only way this relationship could remain healthy. Taking care of someone full time can be draining and Hannah having self care for herself is so is imporant
Roasting each other is actually healthy in a loving relationship, it’s because they’re cherishing each other’s little quirks and forming a special bond and insider joke that outsiders can’t do, it’s something special in their own little world and exclusive to them. It shows “hey, I recognize your flaw/quirk and I love you for it.” It’s a real rawness that is actually healthy for relationships and relationships without jokes and fun don’t last. This one will forever. God bless them
Arabic , YOU GET IT!!!!! Not many people do! This is they type of relationship my husband and I have. We are constantly ribbing each other. Life is hard and this is how we lighten things up and stay sane. It works well for us! We just hit our 21 year anniversary earlier this month! We are best friends, not just lovers. Sure, we have arguments, occasionally bad ones, but we talk it out, straighten up, and get back to being silly and loving!
You remind me so much of my brother 😭😭😭 he passed 7 years ago from muscular dystrophy! He was just like you! Out going and smart and everyone just enjoyed him! May god bless you!!!!
@Kaelan The Urban Explorer WTF is wrong with you ??? People of Faith are not trying to convert you when they say "god bless you," it is a term of endearment...
my little brother got diagnosed 3,5years ago and sadly because of where we live spinraza isnt available, which is such a punch in the gut and sad. I cant even imagine having to lose a brother...My condolences to you and your family
@@monke4028 jealous loser 😂😂 you're bagging on this guy because his girlfriend is way hotter then any girl that's even looked your way. You know what's a ugly trait, your personality.
U are so right i usually dont comment unless it really touched my heart but these two incredible people make me still believe and restored my faith in myself( thank u guys for that !!!) God Bless them !!!
@Make it lucid It's been a few months since I watched it but SBSK made a video about UA-cam remiving all of their comment sections. Chris will sometimes refer to the situation in the community tab. Check out the video if you havnt already.
I work in a department in a large hospital that offers Spinraza injections to patients with SMA. Watching someone wiggle her finger who otherwise hasn’t been able to do that in years is amazing. I love hearing about the injections from your perspective! And Hannah- feel free to give the staff tips and tricks on transfers! I like to take advice from the patient/family/care givers since they live it everyday! Thanks for sharing!
Hes also gonna live as hard as he can... hes making big changes hes gonna get up off hes ass n make something of himself..not like before laying around doing nothing.
I found you two via SBSK, and I LOVE that you share your story with us! I am so glad the synthetic DNA is there for you, and I hope you can continue getting it until they find a cure!
Thats so fucking awesome that they found a cure in his life time. Im so happy god blessed us with people to find these cures for awesome people like him
@@Tacomans_56 Well, they still haven't found a cure for SMA so this is a treatment to stop the progression of the disease. The research to find a cure is ongoing. It's still awesome and a major milestone though because it will allow so many to have a better quality of life.
I had two older sisters with SMA. Sondra was born in 1939 and died in 1964 at the age of 25. Technically, she was never officially diagnosed during her life, but there is no question that she had SMA. Nancy was born in 1950 and died in 1994 at the age of 43. I was only 7 when Sondra died. I loved her dearly, but have few real memories of her. Nancy and I, on the other hand, were extremely close and she, her husband Richard and I spent a lot of time together, meaning that for the first 38 years of my life, I watched Nancy's slow but constant deterioration. She married her husband when she was 18, and they were married for 25 years and 1 week. Two days after her 25th anniversary party, she went into the hospital, went into a coma and never recovered. The doctors believed that either her appendix or her spleen ruptured and that her SMA essentially made surgery pointless. At the time of her death, she weighed roughly 30 pounds. She never weighed more than 45 pounds in her life. Shane, I am so thrilled for you that Spinraza is helping you so much. Yes, part of me wishes that it had been created 25 years earlier, but I have no regrets. Nancy knew her life span was limited, so she truly lived a life designed to squeeze in as much as possible in the time she had. But for you, I hope that Spinraza and whatever additional advances they create give you a long and happy life! Cheers!
I watch your channel because my angel brother passed away last year from DMD. Duchenes Muscular Dystrophy. Your sense of humor, intelligence, the energy you have that brightens every room, and that smile that never leaves your face is everything Brandon was. Nobody will ever have the ability to bring me intense happiness and joy the way my baby brother did but, you both get pretty damn close. I love you guys SO much. ❤️
Seriously how tf can 200 people dislike this ? I’m sorry but all this channel, all their relationship is one of the most beautiful things that I’ve ever watched.
Hannah is such a lucky girl and I mean this wholeheartedly. Actually, you’re BOTH lucky. Shane, your outlook is admirable and your humour is on point. It’s easy to see how Hannah fell in love with you. I wish you guys a long happy life ❤️❤️
Lord Jesse she probably just gives him hand jobs, but who knows? Not everyone has to have sex, but they do want children. I don’t like to think about that part but having someone You can get along with and talk to them about ANYTHING is priceless!
@@amber_Forever16 Omg that's an obvious subject that goes through everyone's mind I think. Idk about their sex life nor do I really care lol, but I figure his peinus still works even if she does most of the work, ya know? Idk they seem like a very happy couple so good for them.
Lord Jesse your comment was so unnecessary and disturbing!! I will pray that one day you may learn to live with the Confidence and love this man and his love share together. All i can come up with.. is you must be very young about 13 is my guess.!! 👍🏻
You both inspire me. Hannah I once thought I had a support person like you in my life. Alas they failed and left me alone to deal with my disease. There are wonderful people in my life who help me but like Shane says you hold him at night. What a blessing😇
I’m so incredibly proud of you man!! You’re a HUGE inspiration! When I got paralyzed 3 years ago, I was 5’ 11” and 160.. pretty muscular and athletic. I got life-flighted to Harbor View Hospital in Seattle. My first two weeks, I had muscle atrophy big time! I lost 37 pounds of upper body muscle just in that short 2-week period! I love you guys!
Zoe, so sorry. I suspect that your cousin had SMA Type I. Shane is Type II. It’s a cruel disorder. The genetics are, every day, unravelling and revealing more about the disorder and treatments.
Liberty Hussein ••• She did indeed have type 1, I wish Spinraza was available in our country back then, unfortunately my cousin would’ve been to young to undergo this proceedure...
Zoe Hartwell I will say a prayer tonight for your family. May God bless your Cousin's loving Mom, Dad and you and along with those that loved her. Much love, Linda
vintage90s collector I’d like to answer that, Mr Shallow. Apparently, you don’t feel worthy of love unless your physicality can be on exhibit. Guess what, no woman in her right mind would be attracted to that so what else you got? Did you know you could be stricken with disease or seriously injured at any given moment? In that case, I would pray to God that those who love me would be there for me. Not likely to happen to some ego maniac. Now go somewhere you might think you are wanted and grow up!
vintage90s collector YOU are a disgusting piece of shit. My grandpa was crippled and him and my grandmother loved each other and were intimate, they have 5 fucking kids. You’re a piece of shit, sorry no one wants you.
My niece died from SMA at 18 months old a few years ago. To see someone with SMA live such a long life so far, really makes my heart happy. I'm so glad you and Hannah found eachother. I wish you all the best and send all my love to you. You have such a wonderful sense of humour and lively spirit.
'Live as hard as I could and Love as hard as I could'... such inspiring words. Even to those of us who may be able in body... but have/ are experiencing great difficulties in life. Thank you for sharing and being so vulnerable.
I honestly do not remember how or why I came to your account, but I am hooked. The two of you are so positive and candid, and it radiates. I love and appreciate your sharing your love and your struggles. You are teaching so many people, that no matter what there is a positive life full of love. Thank you, I needed this.
I love that you give us all sides of this life you share together. You're both hilarious, and most of the time, we see you being hilarious, which is great fun. But you're also actual real live people with complex emotions, and I think it's really wonderful and meaningful that you show us that, too. Everything you talk about in here, Shane, is super real and scary and awesome and all of the things, and thank you for trusting us (the Internet) with those feelings and facts.
My friend has your condition and was denied for that treatment in Canada because she’s too old. Her parents were told she wouldn’t live past 2 and she’s 35 now
These comments always say “Hannah is mean.. why did she say that? “ But they don’t realize that the fact that they can joke around and roast each other shows how real their love is. It shows how Hannah sees shane for him and not SMA.. that she doesn’t have to overly caution herself to not say something “wrong” . She just be herself, and I think that’s amazing.
Yes...people worry about saying the wrong thing today...I'm old, so I say handicapped...my wife says special needs. As the parents of a handicapped/special needs son, who's right.. Me or her.
Just discovered you both online and think you are both fantastic. I'm disabled myself and applaud you both for the stance you are taking. I whish you both many years of happiness together
You two are so very strong and down to earth. Raw and real with your story and struggles. I love watching you two interact. The way Hannah looks at you with such love and adoration is just so beautiful. You guys are an inspiration for so many reasons. Wishing the Brightest Blessings to you both 💞
Love the way Hannah teases you! It seems like she keeps you on your toes😊 Great to see you getting stronger. I remember a video when even chewing was becoming more work than you thought it should.
Hannah had me laughing so hard!!! I understand procedures like this all too well. Remember, there’s only 24 hours in a day so it will be over very soon. I love both of you so much. Anyone that sees you two can see how much love you have for each other so I want to say, thank you for sharing your lives with all of us. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The strength exhibited by yourself and Hannah is extraordinary. I respect the hell out of both of you. I have 2 nieces by marriage and they both have sma. One is 18 the other 16. Beautifully, they both make the most out of each day and are great human beings.
Dont know how i started following this but i did and have fallen in love with this couple. They are incredible people. I pray they find a cure for this guy and his amazing girlfriend. I cant tell you how amazing it is to go on this journey with this man not even being married. Amazing caring woman.
“Atrophied little giraffe boy” Hannah’s expression of humor is so dry sometimes and it always cracks me up. I love that she takes walks alone because it gives both of you some time to gather your own thoughts and possibly think of new ways to roast each other when she gets home.
This video got recommended to me and I'm in emotional SHAMBLES. I am so grateful for modern medicine. I am so overjoyed that so many genius minds came together to make it possible. As someone who has had cancer, it's just a huge humbling thing. While I completely understand the big dgfbdhdh thoughts about being dependent on it, I'm just caught up in how fucking cool that is right now.
Shane looks on the verge of tears in this and Shane I just wanted to tell you I love you and your videos with Hannah and will keep you in my prayers and also wanted to say thanks for giving us the opportunity to get to know you and Hannah I really appreciate your videos and sure lots of others do to because by the looks of the comment section you seem to be helping a lot of people overcome depression and getting through a hard time so thank you Shane and Hannah ❤️❤️
This video really affected me emotionally. When you spoke about the drug and how it changed your life...and how you would have to take it every four months for the rest of your life, I totally know how you feel. I was diagnosed with AIDS twelve years ago. The antiviral drugs I have to take everyday keep me alive...without them I would only live from 6 to 18 more months. These drugs are extending my life indefinitely and I am so grateful for that. But the body can become immune to the effects and the drug no longer works. That has already happened to me once. Fortunately, there are almost 30 HIV drugs now. My doctors were able to find newer and better antiviral drugs that are working for me now. Also, I sometimes worry that i won’t always be able to get the medicines I need to stay alive. That is a very big fear for me. Our situations are very different, but emotionally similar. We both have to accept and live with medical problems that many can never fully understand. Hearing and seeing you lets me know that I am not alone, and it has made me a little bit stronger. Thank you so much for having the courage to share your life with me.
Seeing that you and Hannah are together makes me almost jealous man, I love that. You guys are amazing together and I hope that one day I can find someone who loves me as much as she loves you man! God bless! Keep your head up
Shane I am floored that you are still around. My wife and I did a Laughing at my nightmare 5k a few years back in Bethlehem a 5k that I managed to come in dead last for. Both you and your now wife are an inspiration to keep pushing for a healthier life (obese with Anxiety & Depression) married to a woman (With Bipolar Disorder)
You are so inspiring to me and to a lot of people. Not because of your disability but because of your positivity. I feel like I know you and anyone would be lucky to do so
I thoroughly enjoy watching you two! It has really opened my eyes to things I would have never thought of otherwise. Your relationship is so sweet and playful. What a blessing you two are to each other and all of us viewers.
Hi Shane!! It is so Good to See you!! Christine from Block 37 Chinelas | Macanudo Mate - you used to get empanadas...we have relocated to Naples Florida - if your ever in the area stop in!! You look great and so happy to see you :)
I love how Hannah sounds jealous of the nurses lol Shane talking about how life is unpredictable is what I needed thanks guys I’ve fallen in love with ur love ❤️💜
on this ride called "life"🤗. we have to take the good with the bad, smile when your sad, love what you've got, and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from mistakes, but never regret. Sometimes things go wrong and people change. Just remember the ride of life will always ride on.🙏.
Shane I really want to express my admiration for your resolve and motivation. As someone with health conditions I know all to well how mentally emotionally physically and spiritually draining this can be . Poor health is a daily grind. Keep on keeping on my friend and may god bless you x sending much love x
"big things tend to take up a lot of brain space with their bigness" That means so much in terms of helping me to let myself have the space and energy to process hard things.
you guys are the cutest ever- shane you’re such an inspiration. like so much i might cry. i don’t cry over inspiration. but i feel lucky to have found you guys
Shane is always joking and laughing... to see and hear him so serious and a wee bit frightened... yeah I know this was awhile back... but IT GOT ME! It just laid it all out there that he does have this terrible disease that devastated his body as a baby, toddler, child. Teenager, etc. To think what he's personally gone through, not just physical but emotional as well. And yet he is so outgoing and funny and he's capable of making you see past his atrophied body to the handsome, amazing man he is! And seeing Hannah visibly shaken and worried about this guy she loves so much... ok, I'm not rambling! LOL. I'm just already so impressed and in love with these two. This moved me so much! Xo
Shane, I have followed you on tumblr for multiple years now, and I am loving these videos. Your positive attitude is infectious. I wish you and Hannah all the best. ❤️
Sincerely & deeply happy you found each other! & that I found You (both). I've come to think of your channel as my favorite "Romantic Comedy". Thank You for sharing. Never change. Huge hugs.
OMG. I love you guys. I find myself starting my days with you to lighten up and laugh and enjoy time with you. Shane, this episode is brutally open, honest and vulnerable. You've successfully lost your filters.
Now THIS Neds to be a shirt-. Life is weird and cruel and full of excitement!!! I rewound that so many times. Nice to meet y’all. Holly here for Okc, it’s snowing today & im stuck inside. Glad I came across, lovely people💕❤️
I have a young cousin who has that, it's so sad, but she is an incredible little girl, she is not letting it stop her from being happy everyday and from fighting
I just love you guys. I know that you already know this Shane, but you are surrounded by the most incredible people. Even if I hadn't seen a few of your vlogs now and already become aware of how amazing you are. I would know it by the people around you. You have brought light to their lives and they to yours. I'm very sorry you have had this challenge to deal with all of your life, but it has made you so strong and so admirable, a true inspiration. Thank you!
You can defy the odds and live a long healthy life! The power of positivity is real!!! Dont listen to what they tell you your “expected life span is” you got this!!!!!!
Hi I just found you recently. Several years ago I lost a friend who had the same thing you have he lived to be 60 years old.I hope this truely helps you and others with SMA.
Y’all are so awesome. I have LGMD2A or R1 and in my early 20’s was married to a a man with infantile spinal muscular atrophy. We got a lot of the questions, looks, and comments that y’all do. At the time we were married I could still walk. We were married for 7 years. In 2003 Matthew Brown passed away. He would have loved to have gotten this treatment. I’m so happy for the both of you!! Lots of love Ginger
Absolutely love the relationship you and Hannah have. It’s cute, goofy adorable and a little bit dark but hey when one of you is disabled there’s going to be dark jokes that both of you make. I am also disabled and my boyfriend is not and he makes jokes all the time and we just laugh about it xo
I get it and understand what he's going through when he gets the injection. I've had 3 epidural injections to my lower back (long ass needle while I'm fully awake) and I've also had a tube inserted into one of my veins all the way to where my heart is. (PICC line) this procedure was also done while I was awake. So yeah it's nerve racking to go through so I understand what he is going through. I hope they can take this treatment and figure out new and safer ways to administer. Dealing with the spinal cord is no joke. Cheers Shane you may have this disability but you are loved for by your girlfriend, friends and family so believe it or not you're very blessed.
You are so lucky to have someone who loves you so much. Hopefully they will find a less invasive way to do the procedure. God bless you Shane and Hannah.
I am so happy that you get to receive Spinraza and that it is positively affecting your life! Having DMD, I can understand how amazing that is. I love these vlogs. Side note- Please talk about favorite movies and TV!

Isn't that a kinda disrespectful comment for her to say though?
MrsPolidori it depends on if you're joking or insulting and depends on how the person takes their comment.
MrsPolidori It would be disrespectful for a stranger to say it to him, or a mere acquaintance, but someone he has a relationship with (in this case romantic but any relationship really) will know his limits and his sense of humour in regards to his disease.

Roasting each other is actually healthy in a loving relationship, it’s because they’re cherishing each other’s little quirks and forming a special bond and insider joke that outsiders can’t do, it’s something special in their own little world and exclusive to them. It shows “hey, I recognize your flaw/quirk and I love you for it.” It’s a real rawness that is actually healthy for relationships and relationships without jokes and fun don’t last.

Yes Arabic, unless someone is in a relationship like that, they can't understand.
@@jamie.k.nakni817 exactly! 💜💜 14 years here! 🙌
You remind me so much of my brother 😭😭😭 he passed 7 years ago from muscular dystrophy! He was just like you! Out going and smart and everyone just enjoyed him! May god bless you!!!!
Hope you're better now.
Kaelan The Urban Explorer he was expressing positivity in means he finds to be beneficial. Don’t be an ass.
@Kaelan The Urban Explorer WTF is wrong with you ???
People of Faith are not trying to convert you when they say "god bless you," it is a term of endearment...
Kaelan The Chuck E Cheese Fan your the one using it. The guy was only saying God Bless to express positivity. Goodness
my little brother got diagnosed 3,5years ago and sadly because of where we live spinraza isnt available, which is such a punch in the gut and sad. I cant even imagine having to lose a brother...My condolences to you and your family
The love Hannah has for you brings tears to my eyes. It's so real, it's not about looks, sex or money. It's purely just the love for you being you.!
@ape shut the fuck up.not everything is about sex moron.
But he Is cute, extremely intelligent and that is soooo sexy!
Amen!!!
@@monke4028 ur just JEALOUS !!!!
@@monke4028 jealous loser 😂😂 you're bagging on this guy because his girlfriend is way hotter then any girl that's even looked your way. You know what's a ugly trait, your personality.
I read everyone's comment saying how you and Hannah are lucky to have found each other... and now I feel like the lucky one to have found y'all.
Ya you two alright beauty and the beast lol
U are so right i usually dont comment unless it really touched my heart but these two incredible people make me still believe and restored my faith in myself( thank u guys for that !!!) God Bless them !!!
Ditto!!!
Same
Totally Agree 💯
Im glad you guys made it onto SBSK because i wouldnt have known about you before
Me too
Same here.
Same and I love that other people know about sbsk well of course they do but I didn’t think it was that well known someone would talk about it lol
Be thankful UA-cam allows this channel to have comments. UA-cam took SBSK comments away
@Make it lucid
It's been a few months since I watched it but SBSK made a video about UA-cam remiving all of their comment sections. Chris will sometimes refer to the situation in the community tab. Check out the video if you havnt already.
Shane, I'm so glad ur life expectancy has increased and ur able to enjoy a brighter outlook. No longer sitting around waiting to die, essentially.
I work in a department in a large hospital that offers Spinraza injections to patients with SMA. Watching someone wiggle her finger who otherwise hasn’t been able to do that in years is amazing. I love hearing about the injections from your perspective! And Hannah- feel free to give the staff tips and tricks on transfers! I like to take advice from the patient/family/care givers since they live it everyday! Thanks for sharing!
Does it repair or just prevent progression?
'the slightest of mistakes could seriously damage my... Aliveness'
😂😂😂
I would say aliveness is one of the most important things in one's health :D
Not Funny 😂
i felt that though😂
Hes also gonna live as hard as he can... hes making big changes hes gonna get up off hes ass n make something of himself..not like before laying around doing nothing.
You asshole!!
Shane, may you live a long and wonderful life with Hannah. With the evolution of science, medicine, and technology, your future is looking up.
I found you two via SBSK, and I LOVE that you share your story with us! I am so glad the synthetic DNA is there for you, and I hope you can continue getting it until they find a cure!
Thats so fucking awesome that they found a cure in his life time. Im so happy god blessed us with people to find these cures for awesome people like him
@@Tacomans_56 Well, they still haven't found a cure for SMA so this is a treatment to stop the progression of the disease. The research to find a cure is ongoing. It's still awesome and a major milestone though because it will allow so many to have a better quality of life.
@@skinsey85 u really didnt have to let me know u just want to be right about something on the internet
@@Tacomans_56 lol what is your problem?
Edward Garcia she was SUPER respectful and kind. You’re being rude.
I had two older sisters with SMA. Sondra was born in 1939 and died in 1964 at the age of 25. Technically, she was never officially diagnosed during her life, but there is no question that she had SMA. Nancy was born in 1950 and died in 1994 at the age of 43. I was only 7 when Sondra died. I loved her dearly, but have few real memories of her. Nancy and I, on the other hand, were extremely close and she, her husband Richard and I spent a lot of time together, meaning that for the first 38 years of my life, I watched Nancy's slow but constant deterioration. She married her husband when she was 18, and they were married for 25 years and 1 week. Two days after her 25th anniversary party, she went into the hospital, went into a coma and never recovered. The doctors believed that either her appendix or her spleen ruptured and that her SMA essentially made surgery pointless. At the time of her death, she weighed roughly 30 pounds. She never weighed more than 45 pounds in her life. Shane, I am so thrilled for you that Spinraza is helping you so much. Yes, part of me wishes that it had been created 25 years earlier, but I have no regrets. Nancy knew her life span was limited, so she truly lived a life designed to squeeze in as much as possible in the time she had. But for you, I hope that Spinraza and whatever additional advances they create give you a long and happy life! Cheers!

God bless u

I watch your channel because my angel brother passed away last year from DMD. Duchenes Muscular Dystrophy. Your sense of humor, intelligence, the energy you have that brightens every room, and that smile that never leaves your face is everything Brandon was. Nobody will ever have the ability to bring me intense happiness and joy the way my baby brother did but, you both get pretty damn close. I love you guys SO much. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Seriously how tf can 200 people dislike this ? I’m sorry but all this channel, all their relationship is one of the most beautiful things that I’ve ever watched.
they were smiling so much that he was getting help that they misclicked
Nicolas Muro sock puppets and bots
They trynna do a thanos and make it perfectly balanced. As all things should be.
@wes bd and if you've a. Rain you use your freedom of speech wisely, or it makes you look like an idioy
Just trolls, Every video on youtube good or bad has thumbs down. on My video they are completely ignored.
Hannah is such a lucky girl and I mean this wholeheartedly. Actually, you’re BOTH lucky. Shane, your outlook is admirable and your humour is on point. It’s easy to see how Hannah fell in love with you. I wish you guys a long happy life ❤️❤️
Lord Jesse she probably just gives him hand jobs, but who knows? Not everyone has to have sex, but they do want children. I don’t like to think about that part but having someone You can get along with and talk to them about ANYTHING is priceless!
Ohü
@@amber_Forever16 Omg that's an obvious subject that goes through everyone's mind I think. Idk about their sex life nor do I really care lol, but I figure his peinus still works even if she does most of the work, ya know? Idk they seem like a very happy couple so good for them.
Lord Jesse your comment was so unnecessary and disturbing!! I will pray that one day you may learn to live with the Confidence and love this man and his love share together. All i can come up with.. is you must be very young about 13 is my guess.!! 👍🏻
@Burger Boss Yeah she'd take him over you. My condolences. May you pop your cherry one day without paying for it.
The power of people being authentically themselves is just glorious. Thank you.
I love the dark humor. I’m cracking up. You two make a great pair!
The way Hannah is protective over you is the sweetest thing, like she doesn’t want anyone else touching you whether they’re experienced or not
🤮

@@mads_29 what what? You're familiar with the emoji I used, right? Enough said.
You both inspire me. Hannah I once thought I had a support person like you in my life. Alas they failed and left me alone to deal with my disease. There are wonderful people in my life who help me but like Shane says you hold him at night. What a blessing😇
Hello how are you doing 👋👋👋😀😀
"It's not a bad thing, it's just a big thing"
wow that's a really powerful way to describe that feeling. I think a lot of people can relate to that.
I’m so incredibly proud of you man!! You’re a HUGE inspiration! When I got paralyzed 3 years ago, I was 5’ 11” and 160.. pretty muscular and athletic. I got life-flighted to Harbor View Hospital in Seattle. My first two weeks, I had muscle atrophy big time! I lost 37 pounds of upper body muscle just in that short 2-week period! I love you guys!
Wish u all the strength❤️
People who make hateful comments are ignorant, sad people, You are a wonderful couple, and I am glad I discovered your videos.
Your the most strongest person I know. My sweet Cousin passed away back in 2010 from the same disease. She was only 5 months and I miss her dearly
Zoe Hartwell I’m so sorry, God bless you and your family ❤️🙏
Zoe, so sorry. I suspect that your cousin had SMA Type I. Shane is Type II.
It’s a cruel disorder. The genetics are, every day, unravelling and revealing more about the disorder and treatments.

She did indeed have type 1, I wish Spinraza was available in our country back then, unfortunately my cousin would’ve been to young to undergo this proceedure...
Ohhh, so sorry! 5 mos is way too young and it must’ve been so hard to lose. her. My heart goes out to you and all her family and loved ones. 💚

I will say a prayer tonight for your family. May God bless your Cousin's loving Mom, Dad and you and along with those that loved her. Much love, Linda

@@brucethecardcollector You are being very sick...
vintage90s collector
I’d like to answer that, Mr Shallow. Apparently, you don’t feel worthy of love unless your physicality can be on exhibit. Guess what, no woman in her right mind would be attracted to that so what else you got? Did you know you could be stricken with disease or seriously injured at any given moment? In that case, I would pray to God that those who love me would be there for me. Not likely to happen to some ego maniac. Now go somewhere you might think you are wanted and grow up!
vintage90s collector YOU are a disgusting piece of shit. My grandpa was crippled and him and my grandmother loved each other and were intimate, they have 5 fucking kids. You’re a piece of shit, sorry no one wants you.
The way he rubs his hands together then looks at her is everything! YOU GUYS ARE SO CUTE!!!
I'm so happy for you Shane. I'm glad your life expectancy is going to be longer. You're an awesome guy!!
My niece died from SMA at 18 months old a few years ago. To see someone with SMA live such a long life so far, really makes my heart happy. I'm so glad you and Hannah found eachother. I wish you all the best and send all my love to you. You have such a wonderful sense of humour and lively spirit.
'Live as hard as I could and Love as hard as I could'... such inspiring words. Even to those of us who may be able in body... but have/ are experiencing great difficulties in life. Thank you for sharing and being so vulnerable.
Shane! You are owning this disease, and not letting it own you! The Lord is using you to help a lot of people!
I honestly do not remember how or why I came to your account, but I am hooked. The two of you are so positive and candid, and it radiates. I love and appreciate your sharing your love and your struggles. You are teaching so many people, that no matter what there is a positive life full of love. Thank you, I needed this.
Hello how are you doing 👋😀☺️😀😀😀
looks like we have the same medical issue
shodleech i am so sorry you both have to go through this
I love that you give us all sides of this life you share together. You're both hilarious, and most of the time, we see you being hilarious, which is great fun. But you're also actual real live people with complex emotions, and I think it's really wonderful and meaningful that you show us that, too. Everything you talk about in here, Shane, is super real and scary and awesome and all of the things, and thank you for trusting us (the Internet) with those feelings and facts.
These two are just incredible. What a wonderful friendship. That is what we all want. Our best friend and soulmate. Keep on trucking!
My friend has your condition and was denied for that treatment in Canada because she’s too old. Her parents were told she wouldn’t live past 2 and she’s 35 now
You two are a breath of fresh air in this sick world 💕🤗
These comments always say “Hannah is mean.. why did she say that? “ But they don’t realize that the fact that they can joke around and roast each other shows how real their love is. It shows how Hannah sees shane for him and not SMA.. that she doesn’t have to overly caution herself to not say something “wrong” . She just be herself, and I think that’s amazing.
Everyone is too sensitive these days. Humor is the best way to deal with life's challenges.
Yes...people worry about saying the wrong thing today...I'm old, so I say handicapped...my wife says special needs. As the parents of a handicapped/special needs son, who's right..
Me or her.
And I don't know why more people don't get that. Me and my family are like that as well. We joke with each other about each other.
@@Sara-gl8ue that's how I look at it.
YOU DO NOT KNOW THESE PPL!! quit speaking for them weirdo
Just discovered you both online and think you are both fantastic. I'm disabled myself and applaud you both for the stance you are taking. I whish you both many years of happiness together
"It's not a bad thing, it's a BIG thing." You know, life has a lot of big things for all of us. You're so normal!
The thing I’ll never understand is those who are faced with so much adversity can be so positive about life!!! It’s truely inspiring!!!
You kinda have to be. Otherwise you'd literally not get out of bed in the morning, there would be no point. I speak from experience.
You two are so very strong and down to earth. Raw and real with your story and struggles. I love watching you two interact. The way Hannah looks at you with such love and adoration is just so beautiful. You guys are an inspiration for so many reasons. Wishing the Brightest Blessings to you both 💞
Love the way Hannah teases you! It seems like she keeps you on your toes😊 Great to see you getting stronger. I remember a video when even chewing was becoming more work than you thought it should.
Spinraza is phenomenal! I have a friend with SMA type 1 who is responding incredibly well to it. Best wishes to you!
Hannah had me laughing so hard!!! I understand procedures like this all too well. Remember, there’s only 24 hours in a day so it will be over very soon. I love both of you so much. Anyone that sees you two can see how much love you have for each other so I want to say, thank you for sharing your lives with all of us. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
“Eat your feelings!” 😂 You guys are too fricken adorable. What a blessing you guys found each other! Praying for your both always. God bless! ❤️
The strength exhibited by yourself and Hannah is extraordinary. I respect the hell out of both of you. I have 2 nieces by marriage and they both have sma. One is 18 the other 16. Beautifully, they both make the most out of each day and are great human beings.
Dont know how i started following this but i did and have fallen in love with this couple. They are incredible people. I pray they find a cure for this guy and his amazing girlfriend. I cant tell you how amazing it is to go on this journey with this man not even being married. Amazing caring woman.
“Atrophied little giraffe boy” Hannah’s expression of humor is so dry sometimes and it always cracks me up. I love that she takes walks alone because it gives both of you some time to gather your own thoughts and possibly think of new ways to roast each other when she gets home.
I am so absolutely grateful that I found this channel and can not wait to see what the future holds for you two!
This video got recommended to me and I'm in emotional SHAMBLES. I am so grateful for modern medicine. I am so overjoyed that so many genius minds came together to make it possible. As someone who has had cancer, it's just a huge humbling thing. While I completely understand the big dgfbdhdh thoughts about being dependent on it, I'm just caught up in how fucking cool that is right now.
Shane looks on the verge of tears in this and Shane I just wanted to tell you I love you and your videos with Hannah and will keep you in my prayers and also wanted to say thanks for giving us the opportunity to get to know you and Hannah I really appreciate your videos and sure lots of others do to because by the looks of the comment section you seem to be helping a lot of people overcome depression and getting through a hard time so thank you Shane and Hannah ❤️❤️
She's so protective of him. It's adorable. :) Love you guys!
This video really affected me emotionally. When you spoke about the drug and how it changed your life...and how you would have to take it every four months for the rest of your life, I totally know how you feel. I was diagnosed with AIDS twelve years ago. The antiviral drugs I have to take everyday keep me alive...without them I would only live from 6 to 18 more months. These drugs are extending my life indefinitely and I am so grateful for that. But the body can become immune to the effects and the drug no longer works. That has already happened to me once. Fortunately, there are almost 30 HIV drugs now. My doctors were able to find newer and better antiviral drugs that are working for me now. Also, I sometimes worry that i won’t always be able to get the medicines I need to stay alive. That is a very big fear for me. Our situations are very different, but emotionally similar. We both have to accept and live with medical problems that many can never fully understand. Hearing and seeing you lets me know that I am not alone, and it has made me a little bit stronger. Thank you so much for having the courage to share your life with me.
you have an incredible amount of strength ❤️
💚
❤️❤️

Seeing that you and Hannah are together makes me almost jealous man, I love that. You guys are amazing together and I hope that one day I can find someone who loves me as much as she loves you man! God bless! Keep your head up
Shane I am floored that you are still around. My wife and I did a Laughing at my nightmare 5k a few years back in Bethlehem a 5k that I managed to come in dead last for. Both you and your now wife are an inspiration to keep pushing for a healthier life (obese with Anxiety & Depression) married to a woman (With Bipolar Disorder)
You are so inspiring to me and to a lot of people. Not because of your disability but because of your positivity. I feel like I know you and anyone would be lucky to do so
Perfectly said. I so agree with you!
I thoroughly enjoy watching you two! It has really opened my eyes to things I would have never thought of otherwise.
Your relationship is so sweet and playful. What a blessing you two are to each other and all of us viewers.
Hi Shane!! It is so Good to See you!! Christine from Block 37 Chinelas | Macanudo Mate - you used to get empanadas...we have relocated to Naples Florida - if your ever in the area stop in!! You look great and so happy to see you :)
I love how Hannah sounds jealous of the nurses lol Shane talking about how life is unpredictable is what I needed thanks guys I’ve fallen in love with ur love ❤️💜
on this ride called "life"🤗. we have to take the good with the bad, smile when your sad, love what you've got, and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from mistakes, but never regret. Sometimes things go wrong and people change. Just remember the ride of life will always ride on.🙏.
Always forgive?
He’s worth $1,000,000 I doubt that’s needed
Shane I really want to express my admiration for your resolve and motivation. As someone with health conditions I know all to well how mentally emotionally physically and spiritually draining this can be . Poor health is a daily grind. Keep on keeping on my friend and may god bless you x sending much love x

Shane is always joking and laughing... to see and hear him so serious and a wee bit frightened... yeah I know this was awhile back... but IT GOT ME! It just laid it all out there that he does have this terrible disease that devastated his body as a baby, toddler, child. Teenager, etc. To think what he's personally gone through, not just physical but emotional as well. And yet he is so outgoing and funny and he's capable of making you see past his atrophied body to the handsome, amazing man he is! And seeing Hannah visibly shaken and worried about this guy she loves so much... ok, I'm not rambling! LOL. I'm just already so impressed and in love with these two. This moved me so much! Xo

I’m so happy to hear of this amazing news. But boy I’d be scared too you are very brave! Look forward to seeing you feel stronger.

Even if I hadn't seen a few of your vlogs now and already become aware of how amazing you are. I would know it by the people around you. You have brought light to their lives and they to yours. I'm very sorry you have had this challenge to deal with all of your life, but it has made you so strong and so admirable, a true inspiration. Thank you!
You can defy the odds and live a long healthy life! The power of positivity is real!!! Dont listen to what they tell you your “expected life span is” you got this!!!!!!
I am blown away by your bravery, and your indurance to deal with all the issues you are faced with. God Bless You xoxo
I love your love for each other.
Hi I just found you recently. Several years ago I lost a friend who had the same thing you have he lived to be 60 years old.I hope this truely helps you and others with SMA.
Y’all are so awesome. I have LGMD2A or R1 and in my early 20’s was married to a a man with infantile spinal muscular atrophy. We got a lot of the questions, looks, and comments that y’all do. At the time we were married I could still walk. We were married for 7 years. In 2003 Matthew Brown passed away. He would have loved to have gotten this treatment. I’m so happy for the both of you!!
Lots of love
Ginger
Absolutely love the relationship you and Hannah have. It’s cute, goofy adorable and a little bit dark but hey when one of you is disabled there’s going to be dark jokes that both of you make. I am also disabled and my boyfriend is not and he makes jokes all the time and we just laugh about it xo
I get it and understand what he's going through when he gets the injection. I've had 3 epidural injections to my lower back (long ass needle while I'm fully awake) and I've also had a tube inserted into one of my veins all the way to where my heart is. (PICC line) this procedure was also done while I was awake.
So yeah it's nerve racking to go through so I understand what he is going through. I hope they can take this treatment and figure out new and safer ways to administer. Dealing with the spinal cord is no joke.
Cheers Shane you may have this disability but you are loved for by your girlfriend, friends and family so believe it or not you're very blessed.
You are so lucky to have someone who loves you so much. Hopefully they will find a less invasive way to do the procedure. God bless you Shane and Hannah.
I am so happy that you get to receive Spinraza and that it is positively affecting your life! Having DMD, I can understand how amazing that is. I love these vlogs. Side note- Please talk about favorite movies and TV!
