When Ryan put his hat on Ellen..Awwee ❤️
Yeap so adorableee and considerate
Oh my god, it was so sweet💙💙💙💙🥺🥺🥺
I knoooowww I was just gonna say that!
I awed immediately lol
aw so cute when ryan said “please share your story if your comfortable and then gave you a kiss on the forehead!
That's part of the reason we have sign language when our voices can't work all the time (scratchy vocal cords, etc.) If you know ASL you have a backup.
themananswer2250 hahaha we exactly! It was such a drastic change because I had sign language to communicate with Ryan 😊🤟🏻💕
That reminds me of the time I woke up after getting my wisdom teeth removed. I was actually relatively clear headed, but my mouth was full of gauze. I tried to ask the nurse where my mom was, but she warned me not to try talking. So, right off the bat, I asked again in asl. The look on her face was priceless. 😆 she was very nice and apologized that she still couldn’t understand me.
I’m starting to learn ASL. And I’m really exited
When I was in labour with my first i had diamorphine and felt locked inside my head, couldn’t really move the head or speak but could use my hands to sign thank you, thank you, for the drugs that were helping my pain
@@FEEFS. Hey if you are still learning TakeLessons live is a great site it's a free online site (there is a premium version) And basically there is a bunch of different teachers who do live sign classes!! It's super great!
this is a bit late...but I'm glad you're ok!
Anjanique Cassell thank you. 🤟
It didn’t matter how late it was at least she was ok
Aww Ryan is sweet! I’m so glad you are okay!!!
OurSignedWorld thanks me too lol ! 😊🤟🏻💕
You are such a sweet couple. It makes my heart melt. I wish I could find someone and be as great as you two together. Power couple...
So glad that you're recovering after such a terrible time. Home is the best. Ryan's new sweatshirt design is perfect and meaningful.
sylvie nguyen thank you! Yeah there I so much meaning behind it. I hope he shares more about it later! 😊🤟🏻💕
Sign Duo I couldn’t find them for sale. Are they still available?
omg my heart jumped to my mouth when you were describing your injury. so much could have gone wrong. imagining myself in your or ryan's shoes made me a bit emotional lol i'm so glad you recovered well:)
Ellen, I don’t have Instagram so this is the first I’m hearing (reading) this. It took me back a decade ago to when my cousin had a similar accident on his bike and fractured his face, eye sockets, nose, skull. Basically his entire face. Took him months to recover and a couple of years to get back to normal. I’m glad yours wasn’t that bad. .grt well soon. btw, I joined a couple or so months ago. And practicing my ASL. Got to use it at home depot the other day. 🙂
Will S Hi! Oh no! That sounds so horrible. I'm glad your cousin eventually got back to normal, but wow. This new experience of having a fractured (I've never had one before) has made me more sympathetic to those who have had injuries. It can get really scary. Thank you so much! Yay! Keep on learning ASL. I ran into someone who knew ASL at home Depot too. It's in one of our vlogs. Lol I guess home Depot has a few employees who know ASL. 😊🤟🏻💕
Will S ruym
I always wonder how people deal with fractures. I have brittle bone disease so I break and fracture from laughing sometimes, so a lot of times I don’t go to the doctor when I fracture because I know they can’t cast it, etc. it’s bad for me to be in casts because it makes the bone weaker. Plus I fracture ribs quite a lot. It takes a lot for me to go to the hospital and even then it’s after a solid week lol. It’s very interesting to hear people’s stories and realize that fractures/breaks are important & scary for most people.
holy shit, reading this just made me realize, 12 years after the fact, just how lucky I was when I fell off of a bike at 11. Apparently I hit a big rock and actually flipped through the air (I had no memory of this immediately after the fact, waking up in the middle of the road seconds later- for some reason no one went and got their parents or my mom?? thanks guys) and landed in the road. Amazingly enough all I did was break my shoulder (specifically the growth plate in my right shoulder which, surprisingly enough, has not actually caused me any noticeable problems after healing). I didn't get concussion or anything even though it was one of the only times I wasn't wearing a helmet (it was a friend's bike and I was just planning to ride up and down the street while waiting or something), and I almost certainly hit my head. Reading what happened to your cousin honestly made my tummy knot up in horror of how bad it could have been. I'm glad he's doing alright now, that's fantastic!
I’ve never thought about this, but listening to Ellen’s story made me realize I could never work in a hospital - I think I nearly fainted twice halfway through this video!
Whoa!! I almost teared up when you told your story!! How horrific! I'm so glad you're doing better! Definitely don't worry about signing and not talking for a while til you feel better. I'm so glad you're healing.
Ojibwa Kennel omg really?! Don't cry! I'm okay 💓 thank you so much for being so kind. Thanks for letting me know I don't have to worry about talking 😊🤟🏻💕
0:55 awww that was so cute, Ryan!!
And Ellen, I'm so glad you feel better now ♡ I follow you two on Insta and I was so happy to see that you could go home then ♡
Kagura Chan haha thank you! 😊🤟🏻💕
Yeah so adorable 😍
That reminds me of the time I woke up after getting my wisdom teeth removed. I was actually relatively clear headed, but my mouth was full of gauze. I tried to ask the nurse where my mom was, but she warned me not to try talking. So, right off the bat, I asked again in asl. The look on her face was priceless. 😆 she was very nice and apologized that she still couldn’t understand me.
Awwww hon I'm soooo Glad your All right and better now.🥹😊When you said you fell I was just like OH NO Plzzz be ok...😮
I'm soooo glad there wasn't to serious damage.. You look like yourself Beautiful and Shining self ⭐✨that maybe can still use a little rest in her own nice comfy bed with Ryan. ❤ Just snuggle up and take a nice nap finally being home and actually relax..
I've had my experiences with being in the hospital/ the hospital bed, nurses coming every two hours to check your vitals ect..I understand that part..Unless you had enough sleeping maybe snuggle on the couch with nice soft blanket something warm to drink and watch a movie together something to cheer you up and stop thinking about it.. And can I just say that was so cute and sweet when he gave you his hat and put his hood up.. You Really belong together..Again I'm Sooo Glad your ok and it wasn't to serious. I thank God your ok..🥹😊🥰🤟
Clearly bingeing your videos :P But that must have been so scary! I'm glad you were okay, and able to walk back home!
So glad that you’re in good health again. Oh my goodness geez I’m panicking just thinking what you and Ryan had to go through that day
I’m glad and you are okay. 🙂
Tanicha Medina thanks you! Me too lol 😊🤟🏻💕
Welcome. That's good! 😂🤗❤.
This is the wholesome kind of content I need in my life.
Yes practice our signs. Earlier today I watched a program about “barista signs” (coffee, tea, can I help you? What do you want? What’s your name?) and so on. I might use them in unrelated conversations - since going to Starbucks isn’t my jam. Ellen I’m so glad that your home, and that there wasn’t any brain damage.
Thank Jesus your alright now! He loves you so much guys and he really want to be a part of your life. Be encouraged 🙏🏽😘
In 2015 my right vertebral artery slightly tore on me during an amateur boxing bout. When it happened I remember seeing my opponent's waist on down and couldn't see from waist on up. I ended up beating him by points, but I went completely blind about the last 30 - 40 seconds of the final round. (It was one heck of an experience punching in complete darkness trying to guess where my opponent was). *Yes I do I have video of this bout, but will NEVER post it publicly*
When the final bell rung, I had no clue where I was, which way was up, down, left, right, and I completely lost my situational awareness of where things were. I simply stood there as my coach kept asking me, "What's wrong?" from my corner as I realized I was completely blind and I told my coach when he grabbed my left arm.
The drive back home was a long and terrible experience because the car felt as if I was at sea rocking back and forth in a storm. I threw up a lot in garbage bag while going home. Over the next three days while at the hospital my hearing, taste, touch, and smell went over level 9000 to compensate my inability of sight. To this day those four sense are about half of where it was when I was blind. I remember feeling helpless while blind because I didn't know where the restroom was and pissed all over myself (I was 5 feet from the bathroom door from what my nurse told me when she found me. Bless her heart, I later learned she cried her eyes out when the head nurse told me later that day).
I also remember when I started to regain my sense of sight. The first thing I started see while slowly regaining my sight was white and black like when your TV cannot find it's signal (it was on a Tuesday at 11:41pm when the head nurse woke me up and told me the current time). I could see the outline of things, but it wasn't all too clear. The colors red and green were next, but I mistaken red for orange (this was on a Thursday). Later that evening my sight of color came back, but I noticed my sight looked as if it were shattered glass for my left eye, and my right peripheral is completely gone forever. It took months for my left eye to completely recover from the shattered glass effect as my right peripheral remained the same. Bright white light seemed to burn my eyes as if I was a vampire for next few months which made my life miserable. Even the sunlight made my eyes burn in pain so I wore shades during the day.
My doctor told me if I were to tear my right vertebral artery again, there's no chance of recovering my sight again for my left or both eyes depending upon future head injuries or if my ability of sight fades out on me someday. He also recommended me to learn how to read and write in braille for the future (which I did and still do today, I'm currently learning ASL now). I've also accepted if I go completely blind in the future; I will train myself to become Daredevil from Marvel's Netflix's series. >:D >:P because why not...
I'm glad you're doing well, and that Ryan did the right thing at that time when he looked at you.
damn what a story.
Right?! I started to read and I was hooked like damn I’m glad ur ok tho 👍😁
What an experience! You are soo brave. Hats off to you
Wow, that sounds like a scary experience. I’m glad you were able to get your sight back.
just wondering, why don't u want to post that vid publicly?
I'm so glad you're okay! Jaw injuries are the absolute worst, they're so painful
You guys are the cutest couple
I'm so sorry, I've been having issues with Multiple Sclerosis and haven't been able to keep up with social media. I'm really glad to hear you're doing well.
Bill Burkett awe no worries at all! Thanks so much ☺️🤟💕
That little giggle was the cutest and the most beautiful thing I´ve ever heard and it made me so happy that I could hear Ryan giggle since we´re not able to hear him It made me drop a tear
Also I commented on the other vid a while ago...and Im sorry if I wrote that or this wrong bcs Im not from english speaking country Im from Czech Republic and I love english so much more than my mother language.
Love you guys
I'm so glad you're okay!! That sounds very scary. Loved watching this... Praying for quick full recovery!! ❤️❤️
Paige Lavay thank you so much! I'm getting better almost every day 😊🤟🏻💕
Ryan is so sweet to her.I hope your doing better Ellan. You guys are so perfect together ❤❤❤
It is so amazing the ppl can speak to to deaf ppl and you should respect that a lot and also it done not matter how we look like or act like
Super late but this made my heart break. Couldn't be happier that you are ok. You have a loving boyfriend who would fight for you and you are such a warrior.
He gave her his hat and that made me so emotional. How can you two be that cute 😭❤️
His giggle is so cute and amazing
Thank goodness Ryan was there! :)
How are you feeling now, Ellen?
Mia Fireheart i know right! I'm way better :) getting better everyday! Thanks so much Mia 😊🤟🏻💕
I'm so sorry for your accident. But, I am glad you are finally home and feeling better!
I've had that happen to me once, it's a very quick surgery though. I got a stitch to fix mine idk about you, and I thought it was so sweet how you signed even when Ryan was gone. He has obviously made you learn and want to learn sign
2:05 what a guy😂
😂
LOL
i’m healing a fractured ankle at the moment so i can relate a little. i hope everything’s healing up and you feel back to normal very soon! love y’all!!
jayde alyse awe I hope you have a good recovery! ☺️🤟💕
U guys make me want to have a relationship like ur 🤧 so much love ❤
I actually love it when you don't talk and just sign! :) I'm so glad you are doing well! I just bought a navy blue Christmas crewneck and a red Christmas t shirt from you guys! I can't wait to get them in the mail!!!
You two are so sweet! I just barely found your channel after being back in touch with our grandson who has lived out of state and finding out that he has some autism and has been taught some sign language to help him communicate, now I'm motivated to learn to sign. I'm glad you're ok!! The story is touching and I had tears in my eyes watching you recount the traumatic experience. 💗 This is a great channel, thank you for sharing!
Oh my! What you described in ASL about the accident and blood almost made me dizzy. That was terrible what happened to you! I am relieved you are okay (no brain damage) and I hope your jaw gets better soon! 🤟
Voxann awe thank you so much! My jaw is better! ☺️🤟💕
I am so glad to see that you are doing better now! 💕🤟
I know this is a late message, considering this was posted in 2018 and I'm writing a comment in 2021, but I am glad you are on the road to recovery.
Honestly this is the most positive
content i've seen on youtube, i go back to it when i feel the negative feelings start to rise and it makes me smile at times when nothing else can !
I have stopped believing in love a long while ago ,but you guys are giving me hope
May god bless you and protect you ❤
Much love ❤
You're both cute together. I'm glad you're feeling better. It's my first time watching your video.
God is with you guys thank God you okay it my first watch I love it you both are good example of deaf and hearing. I know you both will success thank you for sharing peace
Ryan is so sweetheart!!!! And Ellen I’m so glad to see you doing better!!!!
What a shock that must have been, glad you're ok!!
Poor Ellen hope you are okay now, good thing Ryan was home
So scary! But, I’m glad you’re doing well. And Ryan is the sweetest!
Also, that mug is huge and I love it! Lol
TheColieRO thank you!!awe ! I love that you love it!!! ☺️🤟💕
Got my tonsils removed as an adult. My kids and I signed to one another during the time that I couldn't talk... That, and text to speech (they were young, and didn't know all the signs I needed them to know). Allowed them to still feel like I was connecting with them, and not ignoring them. :) ASL is handy in a variety of situations! LOL
My sister and grandpa are both deaf... and I feel horrible for not knowing as much asl, bc I've never been able to have a full in depth discussion with them, but lately I've been watching A LOT of your videos, and, they've been helping me learn more... it is so nice, thank you.
I was so concerned when I saw the caption!!! Thank goodness you’re ok❤️ Sending you thoughts for a speedy continuation of your recovery ❤️🤟🏾
His laugh when she got her sweater 😍😍
So thats why you were in the hospital! Glad you're ok!! Im clumsy sometimes and honestly could have same thing happened lol I love how you went went back to Ryan all like 'i fell'.. on your head!!
Thank you for your videos. This encourages me so much! My son is profoundly deaf and you portray the everyday life of a beautiful deaf and hearing couple. As a mom of a deaf son it encourages me to know that my son will make it in life. Thank you so much again from the whole of my heart. Many blessings to you both ❤
How scary. Thank goodness you’re ok Ellen. Ryan takes good care of you.
You must have been in so much pain!!! Gods blessings and may you have a quick recovery
A friend told me to not wear helmet that have no includet chinprotection.Ever. That was 15 years ago and I am thankful 4 that ...
oh my goodness, that sounds so freightening, i'm glad you are doing much better, and i hope you mend well.
petsmart1000 thank you! I'm getting better everyday! 😊🤟🏻💕
I love that drawing at the end, it's adorable! So sweet. Glad to hear you're better :) P.S (I love when you zoom in on Ryan's face XDD)
Sorry to hear that you were hurt, glad you are so much better!
I kept putting off watching this video because I know it would make me cry but Im so Happy ur ok now💕💕
Hi Ellen and Ryan, I just came across your channel last night and saw this video, I'm so happy you are feeling better Ellen. I had a similar accident 4 years ago with a scooter and I totally understand the terror of remembering the accident. Hope you feel better and I love your videos, I've been binge watching since last night. Love the content. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
I'm just curious, if you needed to call 911, how would Ryan or anyone in the deaf community do that?
Wait this is a really good question
@@jurassicmurricorn7139 you can text 911
** at least in my state (indiana)
Deaf people can talk ya know.. they could just say they are deaf but that they need an ambulance. But places that have texting as an option are awesome for helping people who cant hear or speak.
@@shilohvanderkooi7784 yea, not allllll deaf people can talk though
They have a new system/ making one where they would text 911 or use a videophone to call them which is like a big tablet so they could sign to whoever answered the 911 call.
i teared up listening (watching) uuuu. im so glad u were okayy
OMG Ellen !! really sorry to see you hurt . glad you do not need makeover your face !!! stay beautiful face.
susan cossman awe thanks girl! 😊🤟🏻💕
New subbie. Been binging your vids. Glad to see that you're doing okay. I can't imagine the pain. 😟
Ellen, you know this already... he's a keeper!!
My gosh. That’s such a scary story. I got chills just watching you tell it 😱freak accidents-they’re the worst! So glad you’re doing much better.
I know this happened almost 2 years ago, but I just found your channel 2 weeks ago and I'm trying to catch up. Happy to hear you made it through this ok.
Oh my god, I am glad you didn’t have severe damage from it! Hope you are recovering well 🧡
Oh my God, I feel so scared for you just hearing this story even though it was ages ago. I'm literally listening to you tell your story in parts because my heart is racing so much. I hope the memory has faded a bit since then and nothing like this happens to either of you again. Ryan though -- what a ride or die copilot you have. So sweet. 💕
He is such a nice bf I swearrr! He gave you his hat in the rain and said he would put the fireplace on for you. You guys are couple goals I love you guys!! ❤️
Very new to the sign fam, so just seeing this. Took me three times to finish watching this...it sounds so scary and brought back some bad memories...also didn't help that I was eating lol.
But anyway, I love to see how you two support each other! I only know how to fingerspell and a few signs, but I was able to pick up on a few things as you were signing!
So glad you are okay, Ellen!! ❤️
I'm glad you are feeling better.
This is such a gorgeous video. Thank you for letting us into your lives. So glad you’re better now. And I love your genkan - everyone should have one! 😊
Omg.. he so sweet.. look the way he give his hat for her.. melted my heart..
Oh Ellen I couldn't finish with the details of the story, ew, ouch. I've had a motorcycle accident and fell directly on my bent knee when ejected off. Happened in 2017. Broke my leg really bad. I'm so glad it all went well and you had recovered from this.
glad your ok God is soooo good!!!!💚✝️God bless🙏🏽💛✝️
So glad you are better. So sorry this happened to you so scary. I had a concussion once and had to go to the ER and have staples in my head. It was so scary.
Ugh..how terrible it must have been to go thru That! I subscribed to your guys channel just a few days ago and only seen your most recent video's so seeing these ones from a year ago is strange but I'm so glad to see that a year later your all healed! You're so blessed to have had Ryan there with You! ❤
So glad Ellen is feeling better!
Seeing this quite late but it made me tear up especially when you talked about his reaction. I'm glad you healed and are doing well!
Ok yt algorithm what’s going on 😂 but sending love 💕
I have no idea but glad you enjoyed the video 💗
@@SignDuoChannel ngl have now watched many and I love you guys! I'm gonna try learn ASL - hopefully it helps one day :)
This content warms my heart idk why🥺
Ryan you are really an amazing person.
Wow. I'm so glad that you are ok. Please be safe.
Oh my gosh sounds like my absolute worst nightmare!! I'm so glad you're ok!!
I’m glad you’re better now. God bless you.
That must have been so scary! I'm glad you're okay. Also, the sweater is amazing!
I am glad that Ellen is doing better & she is very lucky being strong & brave lady. Hugs to my Sign Duo Couples.
Christina Rahn awe thank you ! Hugs back! ☺️🤟💕
A friend and I took ASL classes together, and it came in handy when we were at a noisy bar. 🙂 He's since moved away and I don't have anyone to practice with, so I forgot almost all of it, but I did recognize some of Ellen's signs for words I had learned.
Omg it must’ve hurt soo bad 😢😣❤️ good to know your ok
no joke only watched maybe 6 or 7 videos ASL looks pretty easy to understand with a good bit of words that or i am psyching myself out and just reading captions while watching the signs
Hey guys, I know it was a year ago but I watched it now (new to your channel and loving it). I just wanted to say... I cried when I heard you tell the story of the accident. So unexpected and I guess it hit real hard on my sympathy button.
I wish all the best!!!
Sorry to hear about your accident and glad your feeling better now. Thankfully you have someone as sweet as Ryan to help you.
Shane Mannion I know right! He's so sweet. Thank you! 😊🤟🏻💕
@@SignDuoChannel Looking forward to seeing your christmas videos. Hope you enjoy your first christmas in your new place. x
So glad you were okay!!!❤️
This is very late, sorry, but I hope your recovery is going steady and well~! You're such a strong woman, Ellen
Maybe a weird question but did the hospital provide an interpreter for ryan, seeing as he is your person? Or no?
im so proud of you cause i dont think i can go through all of that by my self i think id d!e
Wow! That's more than I expected. I'm sorry to hear that Ellen. But, I'm glad you're better. When I got my wisdom teeth out, I had to sign to my mom since I knew I couldn't talk while having gauze pads in my mouth and under anesthesia. And that happened during my spring break during my senior year of high school. And at the time, I was taking ASL 2 in school
