    I've been lucky enough to meet Izzy and she's just an amazing person. Lots more exciting things in store for her in the future too. So impressed at this talk, I'd find this tough so for someone this age to do this so confidently is just incredible. But then Izzy is always incredible. :-)

    Isabelle Grace Weall has given me a life lesson. We are all amputees !
    By loss, sorrow, abuse, misery, breakup, trauma or neglect.
    Don't you feel that a part of you is missing/lost?
    She sets a good example, positive attitude and fighting spirit.
    She does it all with a marvelous smile.
    It moves you. Inspires you to see.
    If she can do it, you can do it too.
    It's izzy.

    I love her as if she was my blood, my daughter.
    The family, i never had.
    I dont really care what other people think of it. Before i die , i would make sure, she would inherit every dime i ever saved.

    so weird to see this video after watching her recent videos where she casually tries out ability tools on her youtube channel.
    Yes, obviously she is quite young here, and this is not long after her illness / surgery.
    But the contrast between this awkward / overwhelmed child thrust in to a TED talk and the confident / charming youtuber is quite staggering.

    Apparently you have to be young to have a snowball's chance to get off kidney dialysis. I had necrotizing fasciitis after my leg got cut because of a go-kart wreck and had to have my left leg amputated but the infection was still in my system and almost killed my kidneys and was put on dialysis but my kidney function has improved like hers did but it's crazy because usually once you're on dialysis... you're on dialysis for good. I'm sad cuz my mom's kidneys are failing and she's in her 50s and I'm scared. My mom and I don't have the best relationship but still. That's my mom... I just want whatever power that saved me to help my mom... If you knew mine and my mom's history you'd call me crazy or say that'd I'd have Stockholm syndrome and maybe I do but I'm just tired of losing people. I'm not ready to be on my own

    Help abled bodied people not judge people with disabilities. 🙄
    She, even herself implied that people with learning disabilities don’t have a brain so she can get down off her high horse. The world is full of hypocrisy.
    I’m disabled as well but I understand that disabled people are people too and that disability doesn’t make someone a good person. I don’t think she’s a horrible person though just pointing this out. As she was a disabled person judging another disabled person.
    She didn’t do it on this video, rather one of her own.
