I see all these comments about how he’s so lucky to have her (of course), but she is lucky to have him...they compliment each other so well and everyone needs their “person”. PS. Airfryers are AMAZING!! We cook everything in ours!
Amazing to see how she there to support him and it is equally amazing to see how this guy remain positive and willing to fight the battles of life........THE BEST FOR THE TWO OF YOU!!!!!
You have a wonderful mother and her devotion in helping you became an example to follow by your incredible girlfriend as well. She is a very good woman. All her effort and love and the good she gaves to you must remain forever in your heart! God bless both of you!! Cheers from Lima-Peru, South America.
Love comes in many forms and not everyone can express it the same way. It's ok to give gifts as a form of appreciation and love. It's also fine not to and to do it in a different way. It really is ok.
So sweet of your girlfriend to be so kind and supportive. Nothing sweeter than a wonderful woman who takes care of and helps out her man because there’s nothing better than good hearted individual they’re a rarity but such appreciated when found
My ex was a paraplegic. People thought I was crazy and weird for being with him. He was just like every other person out there but as we all do we have our differences. He taught me so much while we were together. There’s no boundaries to love
Hey Zach, great video. also, a hoyer lift is amazing. We have a couple for my sister. One is manual and the other is attached to the ceiling in her bedroom and is electric, to get her in and out of bed. I'm not sure how much that one costs but i can tell you that you and your girlfriend would be much happier with the electric one that's attached to the ceiling. Even if you're in an appartment your landlord should have no problem with you getting that installed because of your needs. You just need to make it known that when you move out you will have it uninstalled and the ceiling plaster patched and repainted which is super easy and cheap to do. I hope someone here will start a go fund me for this for you. I can tell you that my mom lifted my sister several times a day for 30 years until she got the hoyer lift and my mom's back, knees and shoulders are all damaged with the years of lifting her. I can tell your girlfriend is very strong, but years and years of that lifting is hard on the body. It's so much different than lifting weights. which I think people don't understand. But my mom has had several surgeries now to repair damage she's done to her body over the years from the lifing. A few on her knees and she needs one on her shoulder now. But I hope someone sees this and creates a go fund me for you. this is something that you will always have for many years. They are very well built and will last a lifetime. I can't do a go fund me because of my financial situation or I definitely would. But if someone does I'm more than happy to post a video on my channel to make people aware of the go fund me after it's started. I don't have a ton of subscribers but i have around 17,000 right now. So that's something at least. I think we could raise the funds for it. I'm sure people would donate.
Zack! I love your story! My best friend is a c3/c4 incomplete and he can walk and move about as much as you. About 6 months ago he started transfering, 2 or 3 times a week, to his chair in the morning using a walker and about 2 or 3 small steps, his caregiver helps him stand and is a spot from the front. He had a lot of success strengthening his lower body doing this, that now he does it every morning!
I have a great deal of respect for you. I lost my right leg to a VC rocket in 1968. Surgery in Nam and Japan followed by 6 months of rehab to get into a prosthesis. Had to stop using it because of pain issues. I feel blessed to have been able to use crutches for over 20 years before moving to power wheelchair full time. I am impressed by your attitude. You remind of two people I knew over the years. One was young man about 20 years old who was in an Iron lung. I worked with him at Children's Hospital till his lung and equipment could be replaced. A drunk driver went through a wall in his house. Is attitude was happy and joyful anytime I saw him. He lifted the spirits of everyone around. The other was a man on ortho ward at the Army Hospital. When I was admitted he was in his bed. His leg was off about 8 inches below his knee. His leg was drawn up and his knee was locked. He had a lousy attitude, he wouldn't interact with anyone and refused physical therapy. When I was discharged 6 months later , he was still laying in his bed in the same position still not talking to anyone. What I want to say is I think you are a very special young man who is an inspiration to many. Good luck to you and your girlfriend. Looks like she is a good cook too.
Your condition makes me cry. Honestly. I have Essential Tremor which is similar. My hands shake a lot. The rest of my body shakes but not as bad. You are very handsome with a super personality. Going off to cry now.
You guys are a killer team!!! :)I just love and appreciate how your videos are so real, down to earth, funny, and informative! I had a question...do your spasms bother you? For some people the rain bothers them. Was it because of the rain your arms were so stiff? What do you do to help your spasms? You guys are truly great!:)
Thank you. Yes they are difficult to deal with at times, but I would rather have them than not at all. Cold weather does cause my body to spasm more, but I have them either way. THC and CBD together really help relax my spasms
I recently broke up and for some reason it makes me feel so sad nd emotional seeing other couples being so happy together,, like i wish i could find somebody that could be amazing like this couple. God has somebody for everybody i really hope so
I’m a new subscriber, saw you guys on Cole & Charisma channel. The Dr. Phil piece. Wow what dedication you guys are an inspiration. May God bless your journey.
Hola Zack , me da mucha alegría saber que siempre tratas de seguir una vida normal y sobre todo en compañía de los que te aman, inspiras a muchos , sigue adelante, un beso y un abrazo
Just a suggestion! Either a body pillow or pregnancy pillows for repositioning and elevating legs. They are thicker and more dense :). Also you can prop them under ur left or right side even with your legs tied down so that you dont have to sleep always on your back. Less chance of a risk of pressure ulcers :)
Love your positive attitude! You're both an inspiration! You're girl is amazing for being there for you & all her hard work! What a beautiful soul she is!
BREE IS SO AMAZING 😭😭😭😭😭. Seriously I’m so happy for you. And this video is so cool! It’s so interesting to see what it’s like! I know it must be extremely frustrating for both sometimes, but you’re both amazing for all you do. I’m so happy you both exist!
I broke my neck In 4 places and was paralyzed. After hard work and time I was able to walk again. I asked my girlfriend at the time if she would have stayed with me if I was still paralyzed and she said no, I asked her why and she told me she had a life to live. I told her she could have at least lie to me to make me feel better. Zack, you have a great girlfriend. Both of you are great together.
You two warm my heart.. she is sensational but you are too !!!! Seeing how well you two connect and work together just makes me smile.. hold on to eachother !! Xoxo love xoxo
Mate I am also a C4 quad, I had my accident when I was 13 back in 1988 Thankfully you have a lot more arm movement then I do... Just a query, have you considered getting a ceiling hoist put in your room?
The thing that's so interesting to me is their in-between moments - like between moving from the bedroom to the bathroom. Its crazy how most of us pay no mind to those moments but Zack and Bri practically have a whole experience in them
Another great video, Zack and Bri.🤗 I adore both of you and the content of your videos.👍 I’m curious... have you and/or your doctors ever considered Baclofen (oral or pump) for your muscle spasms?🤔 It’s helped my husbands spasms. He started with oral dosages with gradual increases and then got the pump.😊 We will try to slide in a couple of bucks for your Hoyer lift. I’m going over our accounts now. Would you ever consider a live UA-cam “super chat? 💚
She is amazing!....she loves you so much..........WHAT an an INCREDIBLE woman!!!!!!!!!!!!....YOU are an an amazing man.......and you are blessed.........let me know when ya get HITCHED!.....lol....LOVE you both!....be patient and strong!
I don’t know exactly what kind of Hoyer lift you guys are saving up for, but I found one at a thrift store for $100. It is a pretty simple one that you pump by hand, but it came with a couple slings and has been working well for the last several months. I know you guys may be going for a fancier one, but it might be nice to look around for a second/backup that is a little cheaper. You can travel with it too. :)
I just discovered your channel today and you are such a cool dude with a great personality and positive attitude. And on top of that you are also a very good looking guy. Rock on, Zach.
Hi Zack n Bree, l just want to say how Beautiful it is Bree helping you n show the love she has for you. You both are amazing and l love seeing you both laughing.. Bree is a angle... love you both n watch your videos. At least your mom gets a break. ♥️♥️👍👍
No offense , but having someone who requires a lot of your time and depends on you for everything is a huge commitment. I wouldnt mind that myself . But that says/speaks a lot of his girlfriend positively speaking.
Zack n Bree... Moving in with fiance soon. He's older n has some issues walking due multiple illness. I love him but it you have a way to contact with advice to help him be more mobile with limited pain. He's 70. I know you are busy n probably can't direct response np. The weather here sucks right now which cause his pain to flair up. You two are an inspiration to those who cares for loved ones with physical issues Gid bless you both.
Bree Fregeau my husband use a wheelchair too and when I’m at home I make his stretches. I start with his ankles. I rotate to the right and then to the left. later I move his foot forward and backward. After this, I raise his leg and begin to move it forward and backward, bringing his knee to his chest. Then I do the same movement but this time rotating the leg to the right and to the left. I usually do 10 for each side. And then I move on to the next leg. When I finish with both legs I bring his knees to his chest and hold them for a while. Finally, cross both legs together in the shape of chicken wing and push down slowly. Everything is before he gets up for the toilet, so make sure he is lay down on his back. If you like we can make a video and I’ll send to you :)
@@breefregeau5854 I like what Laura wrote. This was over 22 years ago when I was an aide. I recall doing a lot of LE ROM (range of motion) exercises on all joints. The woman I assisted also was a patient of Dr. Petrofsky, and used FES. This stands for Functional Electrical Stimulation and enabled her to ride a stationary bike and keep up her physical endurance and muscle mass. I have always been interested in spinal cord injuries and the treatment for SCI.
Hey there from NC. I'm a c6 quad myself. In your next Q&A can you please explain how you're able to use a condom cath? I have to in/out cath every 4 hours, so I'm looking for another method brother. 🙏
I'm a C4-5 incomplete quad and I get similar spasms as you but very mild. My knees spasms at night when they jerk up but I have function in my legs so I can correct them. I have a burn in one toe which is causing extra spasms.My left hand sometimes spasms like yours but very softly. It's strange how little things can be so similar, considering how many variations their are of spinal injury functions
And here I am, getting Gastro, vomiting for 20 hours every 30 minutes, finally crawling out of my room for ice chips at 4 am to my husband laying on the couch and watching tv, "Oh, you're alive?" Its nice to see videos like this and know that there are people out there that are worth a damn.
such a great couple. I think its great relationship with the both of you. and I agree to a point with the comments about your gf is awesome for what she does. but you are as well for what you have to deal with everyday. you both belong with each other. seem so happy. life is what you make of it. and you both make it happen. much love from Canada! xo
Such an awesome couple😊 i admire you guys in oh so many ways!! And heck yea **ROLL TIDE ROLL** I AM FROM ALABAMA SO ITS ALWAYS ROLL TIDE AROUND HERE🐘🤗🐘🤗🐘🤗 XOXOXO
I have a hard time seeing how much praise this girl gets. She loves him ...she chooses to be with him ...she should help him. It's kind of same as telling a parent they're awesome for taking care of their kids. It's just what you do when you love someone. I feel like the people who commented those things see her as some kind of Saint because for them it would be a deal breaker.
Oooowh you always be an adorable couple in the world dear, i love you both 💕 💕 Maybe its time to propose her, that must be a wonderful moment to you two 👏👏
I'm curious if they are still together. I've been a quad for almost 30 years and know that it can be a challenge for couples to stay together if one has needs like us.
First to watch.. It's great that you have someone who truly cares about you
It really is. I am a lucky guy!!
Your gf is the best gf ever bro, she taking great care of you which is amazing
I see all these comments about how he’s so lucky to have her (of course), but she is lucky to have him...they compliment each other so well and everyone needs their “person”.

This is called “true love”. Not giving Chanel bags or Gucci bag.

She left him.

Yet you left him. There must have been some boundaries love couldn’t cross. I’m sure you crushed him.
This is only a drop in the bucket to take care of someone. You are blessed to have her and bless her..love to you both

Yes he could
God bless her. You have a true woman there man. God bless you as well.
The way she handles you. With the lifting and pulling. She is going to wear herself out quick.
Adrienne Smith it’s always a good idea to learn lifting m techniques so you don’t get back and neck pain 😊
He needs a lift . Her back will
Pay for that in a couple of years . There isn’t a proper technique to prevent that .
Take zack to the toilet right now

I think its great relationship with the both of you. and I agree to a point with the comments about your gf is awesome for what she does. but you are as well for what you have to deal with everyday. you both belong with each other. seem so happy. life is what you make of it. and you both make it happen. much love from Canada! xo
These 2 are meant to be. So sweet ❤ together

Zaaaack are u there answer me plz be strong your girl friend is an angel lovr u both
Awesome to see how much he appreciates her help ...
Not be be rude serous question Can you grip things with your hands and like open them or is it more comfortable to clinch your hands?
I have a hard time seeing how much praise this girl gets. She loves him ...she chooses to be with him ...she should help him. It's kind of same as telling a parent they're awesome for taking care of their kids. It's just what you do when you love someone. I feel like the people who commented those things see her as some kind of Saint because for them it would be a deal breaker.
Really thought I liked Bri until I saw that roll tide tank top and now I'm having second thoughts 🙃🙃😂
This is awesome. So happy for you! Hope you’re well 😁
Oooowh you always be an adorable couple in the world dear, i love you both 💕 💕
Maybe its time to propose her, that must be a wonderful moment to you two 👏👏
She is amazing. A keeper. So happy for you both
I love the airfryer! I have severe stomach problems and sometimes I can still enjoy some fries and stuff this way!
Love the Anaheim Ducks shirt! You two have an amazing relationship.
Very lucky to have gf... in other countrys paralyis means end of life

احلى مسا وأحلى تحية من مصر.
What an inspiration you both are may god bless you in all your life xxoo
Don't you have insurance? They will cover a hoyer lift.
Yes I do, but my insurance doesn't always cover my needs and are difficult to work with. I will look more into it. Thanks
@@zackcollie3364 They cover mine that's why I was asking. That's crazy if they won't! Keep on them!!
A hoyer loft can be super important to save her back over the long term or in case she’s ever injured.
Ok That is great to know and I’m happy they covered one for you. I will look into it and see what they say.
Yes! Look into insurance. I would be surprised if you didnt get something.
I'm curious if they are still together. I've been a quad for almost 30 years and know that it can be a challenge for couples to stay together if one has needs like us.
no there is a vide about it
