Priscilla is a superhero, and so are her mother and Rachel. Just the thought that many many many many others around the world have to struggle in similar ways, but don't have the same apparatuses or loved ones who care, profoundly breaks my heart.
Priscilla, thankyou for allowing us into your world. It is an honour to have met you. It also helps to dispel the myths and fears around your condition. I send you love and light from Ireland. 💞💫💞💫💞💫💞💫
Lovely to hear about you Priscilla, and you are right: ‘staying encouraged’ is really a challenge for everyone day in and day out, acknowledging and confronting the difficulties in an honest way I think cultivates great character and allows you to grow. Have a great week.
You are very wise and definitely someone I think I would like to have a conversation with. Thank you for telling us a little about you and your life. I hope you are doing well and content and I wish you many blessings and joy.
Dear Priscilla ... you are a lovely person inside and out. The eyes are the mirror of the soul and your eyes are all soul. I pray with each day you feel better and lots of love to you and your very loving mother and little doggy ... I wish I could hug you and visit you in real life but unfortunately I live on the opposite side of the planet. Hugs and kisses to you xxx
@@ericcartman9042 Who are you?? I'm very sure that I never accepted you as my "boyfriend" ever, as I don't even know you. Please stop posting outlandish statements that aren't true.
Hi, Priscilla. I hope you're still doing well after all this time. I wish that I could have commented right after I viewed your interview because you were so candid and personable. Is your dog a miniture poodle? My first pet was just by chance. He was smart and loyal and just such a rare, unexpected gift. He saved my life from age 15 to 28 years. I was in emotional turmoil, bullied, tormented, and just stretched to the max trying to put on a happy face for my siblings. Bottom line: We are here in all our "glory" to initiate change in society. We humans are all very much the same, but often only notice and accentuate our tiny, tiny differences. I am many years older than you are, and yet, you have independently discovered and articulated that same message in your own original, empowered way. Why are we not uniting ourselves with one strong voice?
priscilla, i also have depression and struggle with suicidal ideation. people like us are always fighting just to stay, and you have some additional/different challenges than some people do. but it makes me feel better to think we are all fighting together. it’s easy to feel guilty about having depression or to feel like a burden, but you’re worth so much, and everyone deserves to honor all of our feelings and the struggles we face. i absolutely love your tattoo and the beautiful frida kahlo quote - it’s perfect! i’m glad to hear you like to paint like her, that’s really cool. i also love art. hope you can find peace and (sorry to say it!) can stay encouraged! i’ll try my best too, and i’ll keep you in my thoughts! ps. another frida quote: “Al final del día, podemos soportar mas de lo que creemos que podemos.”
Sending lots of love and positive vibes friend. Hope you are happy and doing well. Take it all a day at a time. 💚💚💚Also hope your fur baby is doing well as well.
Omg I have something very similar to this. It’s called Nemaline Rod Myopathy which makes all my muscles weak throughout my body and I also have a trach and ventilator. Seeing this video is so inspiring 😊
@@m3kbeatz I just don’t think about it and you’re never gonna be alone. I bet you have a bunch of people who love you and as long you have them, you’re gonna be fine and enjoy life. That’s the most important part
Its sad that in this world, there are people who would bully soneone so much going on already.I wish for you good health and long life, and lots of love and happiness. Just keep being the sweet you that you are.❤❤❤
I have bipolar so I know with me it helps to be pushed. I have kids, which I never wanted to have, but because of them I HAVE to get up. I have to perform. I HAVE to, especially since I have little family help. Having a job part time helps. You HAVE to go, especially if you're poor!! If people come over regularly you will HAVE to most likely rise to the occasion and be social. Routine that PUSHES you really helps, and always get the proper emotional breaks in that you need as well!!
I know exactly what you mean and agree with you 100%. I'm also diagnosed as bipolar, by the way. Not sure I concur with the diagnosis, but the meds help, so they can label it whatever they want.
Hello Priscilla 😀 I hope you are doing well!! You are very bright and have a great grasp on humanity. It’s awesome that you are achieving your educational goals. I wish you the very best and GOD bless!! 😇🙏
They said that the vent has to be turned off, so Priscilla is not breathing while her caregiver transfers her from the chair to the bed, so they have to be fast. How could she stay alive without breathing for long minutes? I can't hold my breath even for 20 seconds.
She can breathe, just not enough to stay alive for long durations. Or, in other words, she isn’t able to take in enough oxygen to satisfy her bodies requirements on her own, so assistance is needed to keep her O2 levels stable.
Thank you for sharing your story with us ❤ It is very interesting to see the ways different people succeed in life with different challenges. I am disabled too.
I love your life philosophy and totally agree. People need to be more open, accepting, and loving of others and people who are different from them. Thanks for speaking out about that because just like negativity can be contagious, caring can be as well.
Hola, soy de México y me gusta mucho tu trabajo porque me hace reflexionar sobre lo que tengo. El tatuaje en español es de la artista Frida Kalo, que también sufrió de muchas penurias en su cuerpo. Hay que ver sus obras de arte para darse cuenta de sus aflicciones. Saludos
Yes, for English speakers , her Spanish tattoo is a quote from Freida Kahlo! A little known fact, like Priscilla, Freida Kahlo was an artist who was also a member of the disabled community !
Bless you and in Prayers daily 🙏 and Love and Care and Concern always ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Wishing Well and Health and Prosperity ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Mother and daughter are Super Strong and Blessed. Blessed you all❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
People accept physical disabilities with no problem if the person is intelligent..We have so far to go still..Society still does not accept people like my son with a severe mental impairment...He is severe autism and because he is not considered intelligent he is the most discriminated disability ..He is human still and has feelings ..He just cant verbalize it ..We have a very long way to go still
Whom ever bullied you has no sense of being a human being it’s a shame there are ignorant people who haven’t been educated by their parent about differences in people whether it color ethnicity or differently able people
I can't imagine not being able to do anything at all the boredom would be insane. I hope she can get over this low point and keep her eye on God. Does anyone know what happened to her?
Hi. I'm very much still here and am doing pretty well. I also want to clarify for you that even though I can't physically move my body independently, there are still many things that I can do to make sure I'm not just a 'bored' statue helplessly waiting for minutes to pass by, i.e. I can read, watch series or films, play games, further my education, visit various places through travel, go to events and whatnot in the community, and much more. I hope that this corrects your impression that I can't 'do anything' and that I am bored. Take care.
@@priscillawong1474 your confidence is striking Priscilla 💕 I'm still trying to accept my disabilities, it's been a very rapid decline from being healthy to disabled... I'm not yet in that position of being able to (enjoy) anything life is offering 😔

Maybe he's tired of being deceived, and he's come to the conclusion that all people are like that. Alfred, that isn't true! You just haven't met the right people.
