    This video is for educational purposes as I wanted you to experience this with me. No weird comments please aha xx also I know they look the same as my old ones but I got the fit updated so they are more comfortable xxx

      Functional ears can already be grown under the skin on your forehead. The only disadvantages are that they possibly won't work, and you have to have an ear under the skin of your forehead for I assume at least 3 months.

    I think it’s really beautiful that people with differences that aren’t represented in mainstream media are able to broadcast on UA-cam and be not only an example but a way for people to learn and a way to have people see themselves represented. Keep doing what you’re doing!

    I literally only came across your channel tonight and have been binge watching and subscribed after watching one video. It's so easy to forget how young you are! In such a positive way.

      @hume6900 5 років тому +1

      victoria, that’s because she views her disability as what it is - something she HAS, she IS NOT her disability. It is just one aspect of who she is, a teenager, daughter, sister, friend, animal lover, student, gymnast and tumbler to name just a few other aspects of who she is.

    Those are some awesome legs! Do you ever think of customizations that you would like to have for personal thrills? i.e. go go gadget leg extender to make you 3 ft taller, or skyrunners that you can switch into reg walk mode, or motorized roller blades like Alita battle angel, there are some battery powered blades out there that can be coverted.

    @billhingston291 5 років тому +36

    I just wanted to say thanks for showing your daily procedures and your spin on doing things. Most of all thanks to showing the world you are just a typical teenage girl with all the typical ups and downs. You're a lovely young lady. While I'm on the other end of the spectrum being an elderly male, I know the process of getting new prosthetic with my feet. The one question I have is how do the figure your height since you been an amputee since a young girl. Is there a certain height you hold for yourself? I know I keep the same shoe size I was at before my feet went all "wonky" being comfortable at that size (despite having large feet lol!). Never loose that sunny outlook and smile.
    P.S. you always bring a snicker to me the way you tease and fondle your hair. Just like a lady always patting and Fluffy it around.

  • @Silent-Lucidity
    @Silent-Lucidity 5 років тому +110

    Thank you for sharing. I was wondering if your old legs are used for other patients or just recycled? Also, based on your videos, I can tell you have a huge heart! You're a very elegant young lady. With that, being that your heart doesn't have to pump blood as far, does it work more efficiently and will it actually remain stronger into your adult years? Thank you again, you're an inspiration to all!!!

    • @bluedeva
      @bluedeva 5 років тому +48

      Rick Williams The nhs doesn’t recycle the prosthetic components but there are some fantastic charities that will take donated Prosthetics from the uk and then ship them over to Africa and India and given to people that need them www.legs4africa.org and www.joininghands.org.uk or www.healcharity.org Speak to your limb Centre to ask if they have a donation box to donate your old Prosthetics, orthotics, crutches and wheelchairs and they can direct you to these charities. 😍

    I just recently found your channel and I must be honest - it was a good reminder of how so many take the smallest things for granite, including myself, so thanks for that good reminder. I see you're taking your life by the horns so to speak. I'm from the US so I think it's interesting learning about how the UK does things. I do have a question, do you have the option to wear different shoes with those prosthetics? Also, I love what you have picked out. They're very pretty legs! Thanks again for educating us in so many ways!!! 💗

    Keep up the amazing attitude (and lets hope prosthetics keep evolving like in the last 10 to 15 years, maybe in the futre you will ahve it easier, especially once actual movement is doable without weighing half a ton).
    Did you try some of the more recently developed arms as well? Does the NHS even make these (say I-Limb or somesuch?).
    WHatever it may be, you are truly an impressive young woman.

    Thanks for sharing this aspect of your life with the world. I'm studying OT, so it's really interesting to hear through youtube about people's experience with a whole range of conditions & disabilities ect. I'm curious, do you remember how many sets of prosthetic legs have you had? When you stop growing, will the time between new ones differ? Feel free to ignore my questions if you've answered before or don't feel like explaining :)
