Accepting my Disability

- Accepting my disability has been one of the hardest things to be content with over the years.
With October being National Disability Awareness Month, I wanted to share my thoughts on my disability and how much my view has changed on it over the years and you should truly value the little things in life!
I wanted to ask you guys!!
What do you take for granted? Or what is a little thing in your life that you value?
put your trust in jesus christ he is the way
family for me because a lot of people don't have any
Something that I value in life is myself. I feel that the problems I've overcome and the progress I've made are something I legitimately own. There are people who have more than I do in every way, but I just am proud that I got to see myself through the good times and the hard times. It's like having a child, in the aspect that you are there from the very beginning and have an amazing amount of impact on the actions and wellbeing of the creature you're watching. A person is kind of like a caretaker of themselves, so doing that well is something I take pride in. Taking pleasure in your own life, the feeling of existing in this universe from second to second, and loving yourself are immensely important. I didn't always have that, so I appreciate it a lot.
Also, intangibles are massively important too. :)
I always thought that any action I could do was taken for granted, but looking at how you put it, I must be careful. I wish to meet you one day, you’re like a perfect friend I haven’t met yet.
“At least I can choose what leg I want to wear 😂😂😂” Alex you make my day and probably everyone else’s too!
I HAVE SO MANY SKINS

@@sumridhitiwari9637😊😊😊 May you live well and find happiness!
You know you are a quite a wonder,and also quite the person. One moment,you’re being serious and giving important wisdom about appreciation and value of life,then suddenly you’re goofing off and riding a skateboard like a little kid having fun. God bless YOU!
This man is honestly so inspiring. He has the best attitude possible about his situation, and you have my respect, dude. I wish you a very long and happy rest of your life. Keep up the good attitude and good work, man. I wish you the best!❤❤❤
i dont wanna break it to you but he only has 3 months to live
nah bro you didn't watch the video. he's referring to WHEN he was told he has 3 months to live... which was 5 years ago@@celestrix_og
@@celestrix_ogdawg he prob knows 😭
Love ❤you Alex and your attitude keep up with the good things you are doing.😊
I'm glad this showed up. I'm in a very stressful situation right now and your words instantly motivated to not think about the negative sides of all the work and stress but focusing on going through it. Going through the little bumps in life. In the end, God has kept something good in line for me, hopefully.
Thank you Alex, you truly are an inspiration.
You are the epitome of human endearment, and you inspire me the most, As someone with a disability I spent most of my life with body dysmorphia and now after 19 years I am so grateful for what I can do and especially after following you I am trying to be the best me I can be, Thank You.
I used to think having fun is a luxury that I can't have not due to money but because of time and I shall be studying or doing something productive, but now I allow myself to sometimes go out with friends even twice a week. I feel happier!
I am glad you came to terms with your disability! I look at you and all I see is an absolutely gorgeous young man full of life, love, caring, and energy! You are the inspiration that SO many look up to to every month.❤❤❤
You are honestly a huge inspiration man, I also have a chronic illness since my surgery and I cope with it very difficult. Your attitude towards life makes me rethink mine, thank you for that!
Been watching your YT shorts lately....
I got inspired by what your battles are. And yes. Life is too short. Do things you want to do. You inspire many. Keep doing it. 😊
God bless, praying for you man, its very sad to here that you only have a limited time on Earth, all i can say is that you are loved not only by many but by Christ, man God be with yoh friend.
I love how happy and positive he is and the jokes you make.
'losing my leg was hard case... i never found it' got me.
Wish you the best, continue living your life you do.
i never thought much about time - i always thought time was endless. when my mom passed away suddenly in 2020, i realized that i didn’t want to live my life for anyone else - i quit my job and focused my time on my family. i drop my daughter off and pick her up from school; we play roblox together and do tiktok dances. i watch movies with my husband for hours at a time. my dad moved closer and we see each other everyday. i realized that there are so many things out of our control, but i want to be intentional in what i do with whatever time i have. thank you for inspiring me and so many others.
Alex, my heart goes out for you Bro.
Wishing you all the best.
Thank you for sharing a positive light when you're facing a deep darkness.
You are such a positive person. I mean its nice and rare to see such an inspiring person in this generation.
It may have been hard with a disability, but don't stop being yourself
Probably one of the most genuine humans I've ever seen on video or real life.
When I watch your videos I think I need to be more positive and physically active. I guess positivity is the key because I let negativity take over and I don’t want to move. Thank you so much for sharing your story and beautiful spirit.
I just found your channel and watched your last few videos, and just wanted to say how inspiring you are. Made me stop to think on everything in my life that I’ve taken for granted and simple things I overlooked ❤️ Keep up your content
Man this made me so great full for having all my limbs, one of my biggest fears is loosing a leg or arm, rock on man. I’m glad you’ve found peace.
I hear what you’re saying but to me it’s so exhausting to live with the pressure to make the most out of every moment, I have to force myself to take things more for granted. I lost my dad to cancer when I was 10 and have been living in a “Oh shit my entire world can change in a moment!” since I found out his diagnosis when I was 9. I know every time my husband walks out the door might be the last time I see him but if I don’t take for granted that he’s gonna come home at night I’m gonna spend the day in panic mode.
I just learned about your story today, and although you managed to power through everything you've gone through, you choose to live* and smile on a daily basis. That is a beautiful gift you have and though I'm not the type who's always genuinely positive on a daily basis, your way of going through everything made me truly question how I handle every day, thank you
You got up on the board and that’s a step that you conquered. Thank you for the message. 😊
Thank you for helping me reframe my perspective. I think we call all be more appreciative in our lives and sometimes it takes tribulation to help clear that fog.
Bro this man is so positive even after everything you've been through keep it up
as someone with a disability, he is totally right. we do need to appreciate the simpler things in life.
He’s really staying happy and positive and that’s a reminder to us to live life with joy because life is short
I love How u never give up I admire that it took a while excepting my condition (epilepsy) but I admire ur positive outlook ❤❤❤
I love you man.. seeing this breaks my heart but I’m glad you’re making the most of it.
so grateful for your honesty and self-compassion…your youth and physical energy and strength.
your sharing your experiences and journey help you…and help others. my grandmother was an above the knee amputee in her 30’s due to cancer…with 5 children. i witnessed her strength to overcome obstacles without a prosthesis or handicap accommodations. the nerve pain made her cry out many times during the day. she used only crutches all her life.
no one ever knows the pain of your loss until it is personally experienced. glad to follow you and appreciate your survival and thriving! here to cheer you on, Alex!! ❤️🙏🏻🪅😎
Alex, You will have another life . Do not be sorry . You lost your legs due to illness that is not your fault. Who created you will reward you when you accept what you are given and do your best with it. We appreciate knowing you. I hope your time here gets more rewarding and you meet all loved ones in eternal life.
After lung cancer I have been living with one lung for 1.75 years. I miss taking 50 mile bicycle trip and not getting tired.
this guy never disappoints on making my day in every single vid love man!
Alex you're a true inspiration to many of us... Thank you so much!! You're true Champion 🙂
Welp i have never laughed, cried and smiled at the same time. You are the definition of inspiring.
Literally the most wholesome youtuber. Love this guy.
Hey Alex, found your channel yday and I just wanna say that you’re such a positive, genuine and amazing individual and you’re proof that your disability isn’t going to hinder you from chasing after big goals. Keep staying the awesome youtuber and legend you are to many out there, including me. 🙏💪💪
Man you make my day better every time you upload you have a contagious smile and you can do anything with that attitude
Keep looking up
How could somebody judge you for „cutting off“ your leg? You chose between leg or life! What choice is there? You are still you, gorgeous smile and a little lighter, now 10 fingers and 5 toes, but hey, you’re here and that’s for the best.
It was so strange! Being 15 and making this decision that I was content with and sure of doing. I had so many family members and people judging me for the decision and trying to sway my decision when I was already 100% sure of amputation. So it was hard time for me to not have everyone’s full support in that moment
@@Alex1LegI can’t imagine how hard all of that had to have been, but you did the absolute right thing to do what *you* felt was best *for you*.
That had to have taken some real guts to stand up to some of those naysayers and to do it anyways, especially while being so sick, but never doubt that only you know what’s really best for you. You know your own body and emotional needs better than anyone else ever could, including the best doctors on earth.
I learned something very interesting while I was trying to decide whether or not to get a scooter. Our society has a sometimes nearly unhealthy bias towards walking on our own two feet, specifically against using any sort of mobility aids. I read an excellent book called _When Walking Fails_ that helped me understand that just getting from point A to point B was more important to me by then than *how* I got there. I was advised to get a power wheelchair rather than a scooter, for various reasons, and it has opened my life back up.
This is obviously a very different situation from yours, but you would not believe how often I hear things like how using a mobility aid is bad because I will allegedly completely lose the ability to walk at all. It’s not true, in many cases, including mine, but it shows the societal fears and biases. The book explained a lot - and helped ease my mind and make the decision to go ahead with the chair no matter what anyone else thought.
Your friends and family were projecting their own fears of loss of body parts and the ability to walk, literally on their own two feet, onto you, at least to some extent. They also clearly had not done the sort of research you had done - and crucially, it was obviously not their own lives and quality of life at stake. Of course they didn’t want to see a beloved young man lose a leg, but they didn’t appreciate what the alternative would have meant on multiple levels - or how much today’s prosthetics can actually enable amputees far more than hindering you. I hope they’ve come around enough to support your decisions.
Your genuine smile is just priceless.
You always put a joy on my face, man.
Your videos always lighten up my mood. Despite this being such a serious topic, you talking about how you overcome your challenges motivates me throughout the tough life I am facing.
Keep on pushing, man!
I know u went through diferent things in life very hard ones,
I'm glad u made it through,
I have a personal struggle to and
I'm also in a growth and healing path ,
ur videos really help ,
I hope one day to be as positive as you .
I think you are very brave. When I remember what I went through at 15 with my back surgery, I can't even imagine how scared you were. Thanks for the inspiration. Even after all these years later after my surgery ( I had it in 1994).
As someone who has a disability that resulted from an accident in my teens I can’t thank you enough for speaking about it.. I still struggle to accept it! I’m worried about what people think, what my future partner may think.. It’s so hard.
Honey, anyone who thinks less of you because of your disability is honestly not worth one iota of your time or love. It may make it more difficult to find a good partner and true friends, I won’t lie - but when you do, you will know that they value *you* rather than just whatever body parts are affected by your condition.
Disability or no, never let anyone else determine your own sense of self worth.
The right question to ask is not what *they* will think of you, but what *you* think of *them*.
And what *you* think of *your own self*.
You are far more than just your disabilities, so learn what’s there and be proud of it.
This goes for all people disabled or not, but disabled folks often need to hear it even more.
You give me confidence. I am soo grateful for your joyful, optimistic content!
Alex is crazy he is overcoming something i don’t think i could. Keep doing what your doing man!
I lost my leg to osteosarcoma 35 years ago. I experienced many of the things you have described but I will never say I was glad I had cancer and lost my leg. You can appreciate life and live with a sense of gratitude without suffering from a disease or losing a limb.
I think too many disabled people say their disability is a "gift" or the best thing to have happened because it opened their eyes to what really matters or it has helped them to appreciate every moment and not sweat the small stuff.
I can only speak for myself but I still sweat the small stuff because I'm human and nobody reaches a point where they can simply walk through life immune to its countless vicissitudes.
I have heard too many disabled people say they would not wish to be whole or able bodied even if they could wave a wand and make it so. I think this is doing a disservice to people who live with a disability.
Nobody would ever say I'm glad my best friend or mum died because it made me appreciate the gift of life each day yet people line up to call their loss of a limb or capacity to walk "a gift".
When I say this I have copped a nasty backlash from others who have a disability (I have written about and spoken publicly about this issue) and been accused of negativity or being a weak wimpy sook.
This could not be further from the truth.
I have kept in shape since the day I lost my leg by swimming daily and working out. I have taught kids for 45 years. I am married to the most beautiful woman and have kids and grandkids.
I love life and laugh and play with passion...but I also miss my leg and view my hideous cancer experience as something I did not need to endure in order to open my eyes or teach me a life lesson.
Perhaps others do genuinely see their disability as a gift. I just don't think it's the right way to describe a loss of a bodily function. We can be joyful, passionate, life loving people in spite of our limb loss not because of our limb loss.
You seem like a wonderful young man. This is in no way a reproach of you, just a different point of view.
I understand both your point of view and that of people who say they wouldn’t want to give up their disabilities. I sometimes struggle to understand the latter as well, but I don’t think any attitude towards one’s own disabilities is “wrong.” We all have different reactions and life experiences, both before and after (for those of us with non-congenital disabilities), and that’s just fine.
I don’t think that *any* amputee really doesn’t at least sometimes wish they still had their meat leg, as one example, or that any other disabled person actually *enjoys* whatever their physical or emotional trials and tribulations may be, but I can certainly appreciate the POV of really valuing what has been gained along with those losses.
In many cases, it’s been things like gaining a more supportive community than they ever had before, valuing life more than they did before, gaining a meaningful career or purpose in life they never had before.
Alex has shown us how disability can really open one’s eyes to what we take for granted, and how important it is that we slow down and fully recognize and appreciate whatever we do have. He’s paid a high price to gain that wisdom, but he clearly values it, and understandably appreciates what brought him to it.
In short, I don’t think it’s the disabilities/illnesses per se that people really value but what they have learned and gained because of them. And if the price of giving up the disability were to be losing those things and qualities, a lot of people legitimately would not want to do that.
Your mileage may obviously differ, and that’s just fine.
@@wendyannh Thanks for your thoughtful response.
I think the constant bright smile and upbeat demeanor of Alex is another example of what I am concerned about.
No-one would expect a healthy able bodied person to be on a high every time they speak or go to work. It comes across as forced and phony.
It imprisons the disabled people who feel frustrated, depressed or shattered by their disability and the expectation from the general public is that disabled people should be brave and inspirational and anything less than a positive "I can do anything" attitude is seen as weak and negative.
Because all we see of disabled people on our media platforms are those who perform heroic and inspiring acts of declare their disability to be a gift. I've seen this over and over again during the past thirty five years.
Reality is pushed to the side and we get performative words and actions presented for an audience.
I have seen this and experienced the pressure it places upon more anonymous disabled people first hand.
We had posters in our amputee ward showing Paralympian athletes with amputations saying things like "I can run the 100 m in 12 seconds, what's your excuse?"
The inference being that unless you are performing feats of endurance and strength you are somehow giving up on life or have a poor attitude regarding your limb loss. We were literally only days into our life as an amputee and this is what we were confronted with in our rehab room.
I hated that macho BS then and I still do.
I can see that people like Alex always have a big fan base and there are many who seem to be inspired by his words and actions, but I'd like to see a balance where he talks about his bad days or things he misses which he can no longer do due to his amputation/cancer.
I know I and many others suffer from agonizing phantom pains many years after our amputations. Perhaps Alex is one of the fortunate amputees who doesn't experience phantom pain but as I sit through another night of burning stabbing electrical spasms which no pain killer can subdue, I find it hard to feel grateful for my "gift."
As I said earlier. I live a full life surrounded by the people I love. You can be active and engaged with life and still acknowledge the difficulties of limb loss and the grief/pain associated with it.
Endless jokes about selecting your leg for the day or cute tricks with your prosthesis my entertain the masses but wear thin in comparison to the reality of what many amputees endure day after day.
Alex himself says he is lucky enough to be able to afford the best prosthetic legs available. Many are not so lucky.
So, I don't want to see a person spreading gloom and doom but seeing a real person as opposed to a you tube persona would be far more helpful in my humble opinion.
@@markmooroolbark252 I totally get that on all counts.
It’s important to remember that these videos are just of single moments in people’s lives, but I can see why some people either don’t realize that, or, like you said, feel like they may be setting a bar too high for some.
That “what’s your excuse” line on that poster was absolutely horrible for someone to have posted there! How incredibly insensitive. I’m so sorry you were subjected to that.
I just found this channel today, so I have not yet been able to explore it a lot to see what else Alex has posted. I agree that folks who do this type of video really ought to show at least something of the bad days, pain, etc. I’ve been following FootlessJo for a little while, and I think she does a great job of this, clearly explaining how it’s definitely not all a bed of roses, and talking about the challenges she faces, and the pain. I’m a paramedic (retired), so I might know a little more than the average Joe about these things, but I’m definitely no expert on amputation, and I have learned a lot from her. We learned about phantom pain but not some of the rest, and I’m grateful to her for the education. An acquaintance of mine is an amputee and I always thought the difficulties and pain she deals with were due to her particular medical problems as well as her weight (which she readily acknowledges is a definite factor), but now I know that while both may be true for her, pain is a real issue for many amputees, if not most. I’m glad to understand better.
I’m appalled at the cost of those prosthetics, too. I knew they weren’t cheap, but the figures Alex cited just blew me away. It’s obscene, and it’s absolutely got to change. *No one* should have to live without this technology because they can’t afford it. My own brother might be eventually facing one if not both feet coming off, and this has me worried sick for him.
@@markmooroolbark252 I hope you don’t feel I was suggesting that *you* ought to feel grateful for your “gift.” I was just trying to explain why *some* people do.
I’m in the “This just plain sucks and I want my life back, but I do my best” camp with my own disabilities, personally. It’s given me a lot of empathy for others, especially people newly facing various disabilities or diagnoses, especially the same ones I have. I’ve spent a lot of my life helping others understand the same conditions and to cope with the myriad of feelings dealing with these sorts of losses bring up. It’s my way of helping my own self make sense of my own, to at least make them count for something, to bring *something* positive out of it all. I would much rather not have ever had this much personal experience, but I have always been for damn sure determined to let it help others.
Then again, I’m a retired paramedic, so helping others is what I’ve always been about anyways, even from childhood - and it was mostly an on-the-job injury that landed me where I am today.
@@wendyannh Thanks again for taking the time to respond and for understanding my perspective.
I hope your brother can avoid losing his feet-what a confronting prospect. I'm sure you must have been a wonderful paramedic and a great comfort to the people you helped such is your insight and empathy..
I wish you well.
I think that this is so inspirational and you are such a strong person. The fact that you are willing to use your experience to help encourage kindness and humbleness in the world is super awesome. Keep doing what you're doing man 'cause its beautiful.
I love your positivity, and your story is heard and watched by hundreds, thousands, and even millions of people and thus will always be remember generation to come
I am disabled as well, Alex honestly I think you are super brave!
I aspire to be like this man. I keep stressing about things and always concern myself with things that aren't important.
You're an amazing person. Just goes to store that experience is the best teacher and someone so young can teach us so much about life.
Well done Alex! You’re an inspiration to us all! 😊
Man you are such an inspiration to those going through adversity! Dont know how long it must have taken to develop this Humorous Positive attitude and make it all look so easy.
Dil se dua...Stay blessed always.❤
Love from India 🇮🇳
Alex, thank you for being extremely positive and willing to live the best life you can ever live! Keep doing awesome things and I will promise you awesome things will happen for you! :)
the clips at the end of you skateboarding made me laugh, the joy was very evident on your face :)
as someone who uses a cane, and has knee problems (nothing super major, but chronic pain is a bitch) seeing someone be so positive and at peace with their disability has honestly probably saved my life at some point. using a mobility aid, especially as a young person, has so much stigma around it, and seeing you take that in stride is so...i dont wanna say inspirational or uplifting because that sounds cheesy and inscincere, but it really gets my hopes up for the future.
i will never know how hard it is to lose a leg, but your videos and shorts always put a grin on my face.
@Alex1Leg is a passionate, radiant positivity that brings light into my heart! You are such an inspiration, keep walking!!
You’re actually my inspiration
Fellow survivor here
You are so strong alex .... Be happy ☺️
Always!!
You are such an inspiration. God's blessings to you
If you want to relearn your skateboard riding i know you would be able to do it never give up Alex. I have seen you pull through and do things that most wouldn't attempt with one leg.
Your content is inspiring to me and as someone who is dealing with mental health shit, this hits hard. With the clock ticking, you must have it horrible. Well I tell you, make the best out of every moment and cherish your life accomplishments. Thank you for this content, I will be here for this journey.
"losing my leg was such a hard thing to do because i never FOUND it." makes TOO much sense😭😭😭😭
No worries dude u will always be remembered in our hearts ❤❤🥹🥹
It's sad you lost your leg, at least you get a cool robot leg though❤
This poor guy.. I feel so bad 😢😢. The last video he made was so sad and I am very very worried..😭😭😭
Hey Alex, i also lost my leg when i was 13, over 33 years ago ^^. I had lose my right Leg. I also leaned to live with it. Nice to see someone who have nearly the same. I had the X3 but now i have a Proteor Leg. It must be loaded every 3 Day...i forget is so often...Send you much greetings from germany. Keep cool as you are!
1:12 when we are on those moments everyone just think those strange stuffs. But as a people from the outside i would just say, you were so brave
hi alex, I have an amputated leg to and I found something I wrote in 2015
Meet Me
I’m different. That's it. Not my face, not my personality, but I have something missing. Physically and mentally. My names Liam and I am 17 years old. I go to Campleheads Upper School Academy. My life is a tiny bit harder than everyone else's, not mentally but physically. I have an amputated leg.
A Missing Piece
I have an amputated leg due to cancer. It’s not that I have to hop around everywhere because I have a prosthetic leg. A prosthetic leg is basically an artificial leg. I snug the prosthetic on my stump and I am ready to go. My parents spent a lot on my leg ( my artificial leg of course), my first leg cost $5000 and my current one now costs $40,000. I have 3 legs in total, my first leg, my running leg, and the leg I am currently using now for everyday life.
I first got the first sign of cancer at 13, I had a really bad stomach pain. I got rushed to the hospital and stayed there for 2 days and that's when they said it,
“You have cancer kiddo. I am so sorry”
My parents started crying and kept asking him if there's any cure,
“Well it's his choice, either he gets his leg amputated, which gives him a chance of living, or he lives for 5 months.”
All of them looked at me, this was probably the saddest moment of my life, I basically have my life in my hands.
“Have some time to think about it. Tell me next time.”
The car ride back was silent, no one wanted to speak to jinx it. I got home and took a magic eight ball.
“Do I get my leg amputated?”
I sat on my bed with the ball in my hands, I started shaking and my eyes filled with the salty water. I started crying. My parents came in and started crying with me saying it's gonna be ok, but I knew that wasn't certain. I shook it and in a week and a half, my leg was gone.
You truly make my day thank you for being you
God blesd😊
Hi I'm touched by your videos but relatable at the same time. I know that I wasn't the one who had cancer but my little brother, who was 4 at the time, did have cancer. I wanted to save him because we had a perfect blood match. It worked and I'm 11 now and he's 9 I hope you reply. Love your videos and wish you the best of luck
I also have to add my school had a party and I went as captain America 😁😁😁😁
Good job being a big brother
@@n1ckplays. thnx man ur the goat
I love how you will roll up one side of your pants. You’re basically announcing to everyone “THAT’S RIGHT, I ONLY HAVE ONE LEG.”
Thank you man you're inspiration
Iam 28 years and in January 2023 I got to know about my metastasis ewings sarcoma , fortunately my tumour was on left leg fibula so haven't been amputated. Completed radiation therapy and 12 cycles of chemotherapy so far. 3 nodules from my lungs have disappeared. Scared of future. May almighty be with me. I am really scared of death.
Prayers for your complete recovery!
@@wendyannh Thank you so much for your prayers.
You are an inspiration brother
You are really a wonderfull person man, keep up the energy!!!
Its kinda sad to loss a leg, but i feel that doing outside activities like riding a bike or a skateboard or going to the gym helps people in a way that makes them happy because it shows that if he can do it so do I.
Sorry for my english I don't speak english
Your English is just fine!
And your realization is an important one.
Your smile literally made me smile too!
You’re so cute and always make my day just watching your videos. Tus little chinitos I’m obsessed, and obvio the message you send out is very important too. ❤❤❤
Hey Alex I had osteosarcoma in my right femur and wanted to say hi and thanks for smiling all the time
Bro just made a Saturday pun. “When I lost my leg, I couldn’t bear not having it. Because I couldn’t find it…….”
You taught me how to live buddy ❤.
It's wild because as obvious as it is, i never thought about you actually having a disability 😭. Video games got me thinking having a robotic leg is completely routine
Alex you taught me something the moment you realise you are dying you start to live when i will become the greatest 23-03-2033 this quote and your name will definitely be their may be you will die i wish not but if you will be in my memory and because i am immortal your name is eternal so congrats🎉
atleast you had a choice bro, i was walking home from the store one day and next thing i knew i awoke in the hospital bed with my leg gone
I’m so sorry! I can’t imagine how difficult that must still be.
I hope you’ve been able to make peace with the situation and learn to walk and do everything you want to do again.
@@wendyannh I can walk, but more importantly I'm alive happy and healthy.
@@IStaySt0n3d_OSRS That’s terrific!
Makes me think of a kid with who'd come to the pool on his skateboard. Kneeling on his skateboard, to be precise-his legs wouldn't allow for traditional skateboarding.
I mean, what kind of mobility device would you expect a young boy to use? I'm sure he could and did make a wheelchair cool, but why use that when a skateboard is available? I think it allowed for more freedom and adaptability than a chair would. It was easy to ditch the wheels in the dressing room or on the grass and quickly join his friends and/or siblings in the pool.
Hey 👋 mr . Alex thats disability looks too much little than yours confidence and still living a prosperous life😇💗📌
you are a true legend
you inspire me a alot .thanks alex
