If you listen to her, she speaks like any other woman that has lost the love of her life. No difference.
So true Gail Adie.
She speaks from her heart ❤️ May Almighty God bless her and keep her until she’s reunited with her love 💕🙋🏽♀️
I thought the exact same thing
Thats a fact.
joek money // bruh all them damn emojis gave me a headache.
How could someone ever say people like Paul and Kris are not capable of love? Such cruel words. - Tears streaming down my face from this story. May Paul’s soul rest in peace.
Ohh yeah that's mean... Everyone deserves love. We are human beings after all. I wonder why would people say such things I guess they have insecurity issues.. But me being a man , meh love suks...
I didn't expect to get so emotional but this video was sweeet
@@JR-cooru yeah its good video. And no offense but are u a girl?
Amen. We all deserve love.
I cannot stop crying. This is so moving😭
In my personal experience, the people i have met with down syndrome love MORE. They love deeper.
Right! I get excited when I see them cause they radiate love.....
They remind that at the end of our life....all that matters is love
If all people were like them Earth would have peace & lots of love....
✌🗺
Right
Ray Ascione amen
They really do
They love with an innocence that we lose along the way they love like God loves without condition.
"You were the best wife any husband could've ever asked for." 😭😭😭 omg that was beautiful.
True stuff man... Oops sorry .. I should have said true stuff girl.. Dam silly me
Not the way she said it.
This is pure, true love, so lucky they found it. Some people never do.
Bingo.
Abigail, I was thinking the exact same thing.
"To be honest I don't know... I lost the man I love" I burst into tears when she said that, that's real love right there
Nothing like crying your eyes out for the beauty of their love. Thank you for showing your love to the world.
His segments are the best thing on TV. These stories are the only things that give me hope in this world sometimes. Thank you Steve.
I couldn't of said it any better myself. I agree with you. It makes me so happy to watch these video's. It's like there's hope in this cold crewl world again. ❤
Tony Majowicz CBS Sunday morning really has great stories, especially when they interview celebrities. They do an excellent perspective on their whole career.
True..
We had a couple in our neighborhood that were intellectually disabled. They didn't marry because the woman's mother refused to give permission. They did live together and raised two smart kids. I was amazed at how resourceful they were when it came to taking care of their kids and making sure they got all they needed. It opened my mind to how we underestimate the abilities of people who are different than us.
When I was in High School I dated a guy who both of his parents were intellectually challenged. Mom had Downs syndrome and if I remember correctly, his dad had asburgers syndrome. Anyway, they were lovely parents and he was a great kid. No reason to ever oppose love. Not like this.
People with Aspergers aren't intellectually disabled by definition, it's no longer a legitimate diagnosis, but back when it was, it was defined as a form of autism where the person has an average or above average IQ and no language delay.
i think you mean a couple with Intellectual disabilities - - but why did the women's mother refuse permission for them to get married? Was it due to the Marriage penalty? Not saying I know where you all are located but that could be one of the factors
OF COURSE they’re capable of love. They are among God’s most pure and innocent people.
Sue Sylvester Your comment is so true.
Nope. They can be just as mean and catty and vindictive as everyone else. Work with the disabled a while and you will seethe truth
What about the one that killed her own family a few years ago
2:23 "a chance to find a man of their dreams like I did" awww it is better to have loved. Very beautiful. So inspiring. Thank you lovely woman.
What a woman😭. There’s absolutely no doubt in my mind that she loved her husband with everything she had. I hope she’s able to find happiness again ❤️
My condolences to Kris and a big thank you for sharing their beautiful love story.
God bless her and her family. Love has no boundaries, and does not discriminate.
Who’s cutting onions?🥺😭 this was beautiful
That was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Love is a powerful 🙏🏻
Love is love! People with Downs I think, appreciate love more than society does! God bless her. ❤️
"It's better to have loved and lost than be told you can never love at all." OMG I legit started crying. 😭 That hit me so hard.
People who disliked this video are cruel and unable to comprehend such a wonderful feeling like love
Why even 1👎 one of my cousins with Down Syndome is married to a a woman who also has Down Syndome. They have 2 lovely children who they are incredibly patient and lovely with
not trying to be mean im just curious, do their kids also have Down syndrome ?
BigDoob420 Just so you know there are other risk factors too such as woman age > 35 is at risk for giving birth to a Down syndrome baby.
@Tony Preston so basically theres a higher chance of them having a normal kids
❤❤❤
@BigDoob420 dont you know by now that trolls cant hide behind their screens anymore. They are to easily found by the right hackers....
I can't believe anyone has the audacity to say that they are not capable of love and shouldn't get married. Stupid society and their list of requirements that everyone has to fulfill in order to get accepted. STOP TELLING OTHERS THAT THEY CAN'T LOVE AND MARRY EACHOTHER because they don't suit your stereotypes
My brother has special needs unfortunately he’s also elliptic diagnosised MR and is non verbal so his quality of life differs,, BUT with that being said, HE CAN MANAGE TO DO OTHER THINGS!! He can dress himself help our mother with heavy things and use the bathroom unassisted...which is major to us!🤗Beyond my relationship with my brother, Ive dedicated my personal career to those with special needs, and I have had professionally encounters and found that those who have disabilities or Down syndrome are indeed MORE than capable of loving, companionships friendships etc. WE really could stand to learn a lot from their community! The level of compassion and understanding is like no other! We seldom get to find our soulmate and this woman found hers! This was a amazing and beautiful story of LOVE and HOPE I wish her peace in knowing that she was the very best wife and friend to her husband and one day they will be reunited. Thank you for posting this❤️😇
Thank you for taking that on as a career. I work in an administrative function for an agency that assists the developmentally disabled, and I can see it is hard work and requires patience and dedication. Since we are supported by taxpayers and donations, we can not afford to reward our staff financially as much as they deserve, but there is an intangible emotional reward that most people do not receive from their job.
Bless you
@S C There are a lot of people that are much higher on the should-quietly-and-humanely-go-away list than the developmentally disabled.
I need to stop watching things like this while I'm trying to do my makeup because I cried most of it off 😑
lewandowska Thank you 🙏🏼 for being honest. Beauty in people is like you just say it; CLEAR. Blessings 🙏🏼❤️
*Press X to doubt*
L-o-v-e.
I'm quite sure I can't even conceive the depth of love this wife had for her husband.
Purest love born from the purest at heart.
God bless this lovely widow.
This story made me cry. People with disabilities are still people. They live and love just like anyone else. I hope she finds a way to be happy again.
Some people go their entire life not knowing true love.
This was so heartbroken but at the same time was so beautiful
I am so sorry for her and the family's loss. It is obvious how much they loved each other and how much she is hurting. I am thankful she shared this with us.
So beautiful, may he rest in peace and may she continue to have the amazing soul she has.
I was moved to tears listening to this beautiful story...
Fantastic. It's a privilege to see happy people, thanks
I cried for them. My son Daniel has Down's Syndrome and it is my hope that he will marry someday if he so wishes. The world is changing. People with Downs want the same things as anyone else.
Love is love is love. That is a pure undiluted love that I hope to receive even once in my lifetime. Rest in peace Paul 🥺
Of course they love as deeply as the rest of us.
Who could think other wise?
Simple minded people. That’s who.
No they love deeper
Absolutely Beautiful Story!!! My deepest condolences goes out to Kris. She and Paul found and demonstrated through the life they lived, a deep love and commitment to one another that many couples have sought for and never been able to find. Everyone should remember this fact; a disability does not equate to an inability. May God Bless, Encourage and Strengthen Kris during this loss in her life...🙏
I have an uncle whose downs and he’s such a loving person and I couldn’t imagine looking at him as less than human
What a wonderful love story.
Another adorable couple it brings tears to my eyes.if people out there say cruel things about people who have disabilities I will rip into these wicked people saying wicked things about those with disabilities.disabilities are close to home.Discrimination should never be tolerated
Wow I just seen a post on Facebook with another Down syndrome couple who’s been married for over 30 years
This is so beautiful 😭😭😭😭 may God bless her heart 😟😟😟
Amen
This is pure love....everyone is deserving of love and marrying their dream person. There is no doubt in my mind that their love ran deep with so much passion and joy. One day I hope I am lucky enough to experience love like this. Beautiful family, beautiful love and such a beautiful couple. My heart is with you🖤
I'm not crying...it's just allergies! 😭
People with down syndrome definitely love deeper. My cousin who had down d m syndrome passed away a few years back. He loved everyone so deeply and he and had great kindness. I miss him. He taught me so much by just living life with joy and love.
It's always hard to see a husband or wife lose their partner 😢
Oh my god! 😭😭😭😭 I love them. They had the best kind of love and in glad they we're able to share their lives together.
What a BEAUTIFUL story. I'm so very sorry for your loss Mrs. DeForge. You will be in my thoughts and I sincerely hope you will be happy again after you have had some time.
I'm crying I'm so glad they found each other even if it was cut short.
2:22 “People like us need to have a chance!” Beautiful love story!
I’m gosh! I have happy tears, they were so blessed to have found each other and felt that once in a lifetime love. I’m so proud of their families supporting them.
Many able-body people will never know what true love really is.
This is heart breaking to watch😭
I have nothing for her and family but LOVE ❤️... Thank you for sharing ❤️
This is so beautiful.. So sorry for their loss.. Love is love no matter....
Seriously how can we still view those with Down’s syndrome as less than?? These people’s love story is beautiful
This is an awesome story! The people who have Down syndrome love you more and unconditionally! They deserve to have a chance and live their lives!
Beautiful story♥️
Someone like that probably loves deeper than any of us. It’s pure and innocent it’s real ❤️
I think their love is so beautiful and pure. Much more committed than most of "us."
I am moved to tears. Kris, thank you for sharing your beautiful love story with us. I send you my deepest sympathy on the loss of your beloved husband Paul. I believe that when God calls you home, you will be with Paul again. God bless you always and may God help you during this time. Rest in Peace Paul. Lots of love from Ireland.
Their love is deep and pure, no yucky stuff in their hearts.
The photo's of them together genuinely melts my heart!!! They look like the sweetest couple in the world!! And the way she speaks about him😢....😭😭😭 Its kinda overwhelmingly beautiful!!... i really do hope she can be happy here on earth without him, untill the day god unites them again😢😭😭
Why youtube!!! Why u always do this to me!!!😭
This is a beautiful love! Whom ever said they were not capable of loving doesn't know what love is.
“Maybe their love is deeper” DUHHH!!!!!!
Beautiful and touching story. Thank you for sharing. ♥️
I really admire those two. What a beautiful love story to two very deserving people. ❤️
We have no right to judge. These two made the best of their lives. They didn’t let a sickness or disease stop them from living their life the way they wanted. They enjoyed life and were perfectly capable of doing things how they wanted.
My brother has Down syndrome and I hope he finds someone special for him
What a beautiful story ❤️ example of what real love
What a Beautiful Couple. If I had a Love besides my kids & immediate Family like that Couple. I would have got Married long Ago. I Pray the Widowed wife enjoys life with all the Wonderful Memories they Shared. 🙏🏽
Wow...truly breathtaking...take notes EVERYBODY...this is true love. Bless them both!!😊👏👏👏
Why should they not be able to love like any of us. Love is not just for certain ones. Love is for all of us and it comes in different stages of our lives. God is Love and we were all meant to have that Love in our lives. God Bless Us All
Bless her beautiful heart. I'm so glad I watched this. Love is love 💞💕💝
What a beautiful story of Love...bless them both for having each other. This brought tears to my eyes, thank you for sharing.
Thats called pure love. Really inspiring.
I honestly think they love way more than us. I wish everyone could as open and honest as them.
They have feelings and deserve respect and deserve to be loved and happy just as much as anyone else I'm glad this couple had the chance to experience that love my prayers and heart go out to her for her loss
Awe bless her heart i could feel the love pour out from that woman as she spoke .
People say this country isnt good and people say we haven't gone any where as a country. Well here you go America at its best. Love is love no matter who or where you come from. Awesome story.
I can't stop crying and I'm not even a crier
Thank u 4 sharing one of the most beautiful love stories!!! And now that I have cried my eyes out; my heart is filled with hope!!! ♥️ Thank u Kris & Paul 4 proving this tainted society wrong... True Love knows no boundaries; does not discriminate... That’s a GODLY love indeed!!! Rest In Peace Paul & Kris- u will see your loving Husband again... GUARANTEED!!! ♥️🙏🏽♥️
So happy they got to have the joy of being married. Such a sweet lady and you can plainly see she loved her husband who passed the same way any "normal" adult did.
In tears 😢 about how beautiful this is... 💞💖🙏
I remember this couple!!!! I LOVED them then, and LOVE them now,though he is gone. It is so great to see an update.
She speaks with such compassion about her husband
I am bawling. What a beautiful love story. My deepest condolences
🙏🏾❤
What a touching love story. This is what love looks like, a thing of beauty.
This is a amazing love story. Wouldn’t we all be as lucky to live a love this grand. He is smiling down on you until y’all meet again. All the best to this lovely lady
The same thing she loves about her husband is exactly what I love about my husband of 34 years, he makes me laugh. I feel your pain Kris. I pray the pain of your loss eases over time.
I didn't expect to have a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes by the end of this story....but there ya go. 😥
They we very lucky to have found their perfect love. We aren't all that fortunate. ❤
One of the greatest stories I’ve ever heard.❤️💙☺️🙌🏾
You guys are one perfect couple..
Don’t listen to them haters..This is real love right here💖💖💖
God bless everyone
I have felt a deeper love coming from people with down's syndrome, than most other people. It truly is beautiful!!!
I wish we could make viewing this video mandatory for anyone who ever thought they understood Down Syndrome. Anyone who ever assumed that being born with that condition meant living a life within a set of immovable boundaries. Turns out the only boundaries these amazing people can't get around are the ones we "normally functioning" humans cast in from of them. Folks like Kris and Paul teach us lessons in joy, happiness and love in their truest and purest forms. Sadly, though not complex, these lessons can only be learned by those capable of living in this world without the necessity of judging people, things and circumstances they don't know and can't understand.
they loved each other more then any couple ever could
Tears are falling...such a wonderful love story...
This is so pure, who’s cutting the onions
It’s sad to me that people forget that People with disabilities are still people. They have the same emotions and needs and desires. She and her honey lived a long happy fulfilling life together.
I cried in two when her sister said she was the best wife that any husband deserve to have.
A beautiful story of love. Just beautiful.
God I cried so much watching this 😢
This shows that true love is unconditional 💘
People with disabilities (down syndrome, austism, adhd etc) are God’s perfect creation. God never makes mistakes, these people are full of love in their hearts.
