    Today I am 52. After watching this, I can't imagine not knowing if I will see my next one. And falling down from the kickstand and breaking a foot, you got back up and did it again. 🙏

    Thank you for making this video Austin - my father was an avid surfer and waterman before he passed away from MSA at 56. I was his caretaker for 10 years & your positive attitude reminds me of him. Keep fighting the good fight.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am a physical therapy student and I am doing a research paper on MSA because my best friend’s father passed away from this 7 years ago. I wanted to find any and all info so I could really understand how to help a patient like this when I am a licensed therapist. I’m so thankful for your inspiring story and your positivity. Stay strong ♥️

    Thank you for sharing such a heart touching story. We are friends on Tik Tok and I’m so happy you posted the video today that led me to your story here on UA-cam. You have a beautiful family. Thank you for being such an awesome friend you inspire me with each video I watch. And not to mention we share the same love for the best breed of dogs paws down 🐾🐾♥️🐾🐾🦋💙🦋 i loved the butterfly on your windshield. I have a tattoo of a tribal butterfly that says Amen I’m alive after a horrific surgery. I have SLE Lupus and know the struggle of a disease with no cure for. Keep being the amazing man you are.

    Your story with working with your dad in the garage and cars, makes me think back on my childhood and life. I was always out in the garage with my dad watching him work on motors and painting cars. My favorite car is a 55 Chevy 2 door hardtop. My dad had 5 of those, restored them and they were so awesome. I love the smell of gas, exhaust, oil lol people say I’m weird haha. It’s my life though, I’ve got a 73 Chevy square body with a big block in it a 454, an 81 Chevy square body with a 350 in it, an 02 GMC Sierra 2500 with a 6.0, lifted 9 inches and an 07 avalanche rare XLT with a 6.0 in it as well lifted. I fixed the motors in my 73 & 81 and I owe it to my daddy for teaching and showing me how. I’m just a small skinny girl lol but I know my way around motors. I work on my sons car a lot and teach him different things on everything I’m working on. My husband and their daddy passed away in 2006 and it’s just been me and my kids ever since. I’m mom and dad in one and I feel I’ve done a great job with my kids. My Dylan is now 17 and a senior in high school. Even though his daddy isn’t here with us anymore, he’s going to survive and make it in this world and leave his name imprinted everywhere he goes. His buddy’s think it’s the coolest thing to see my sons mom out there wrenching on cars and if they have any mechanical issues they always call me. Makes me feel good that I can help 🥰🥰. Just wanted to leave u a message and tell u that u r doing great things and I’m so glad that I found your TikTok page buddy. Take care and much respect.....Sarah

    way back, whatever been figured out since a live on Tim's channel. I saw a video similar to this one, right? and I thought you said you didn't really ride much anymore. Your daughter drove eight hours, wow, super cool, nothing like riding💞, the trophy's are mint😹✌...

    • @FightingMSA
      @FightingMSA  4 роки тому +1

      Yes unfortunately we had to give up riding. I wanted others to remember that even though we all face different things in our lives Not giving up is what we wanted to convey.
