Hey Gem, I really love you so I want you the best to you please i want 3 minutes of your life to see the Beaty in Islam and how it could you life more happiness than ever, Seek the truth with a mind that thinks in 3 minutes cause if you think a little bit, everything have a purpose except us and why we’re here? * There must be a stronger entity and it is not a coincidence. Look what god said and you will know the truth, he said * ( We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness?) See by your self :- God said: 1- ( And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me ) 2- ( And when Our verses are recited to them, they say, "We have heard. If we willed, we could say [something] like this. This is not but legends of the former peoples." @ And [remember] when they said, "O Allah, if this should be the truth from You, then rain down upon us stones from the sky or bring us a painful punishment.") 3- ( Indeed, these [disbelievers] love the immediate [ life ] and leave behind them a grave Day.) 4- And they say, "There is not but our worldly life; we die and live, and nothing destroys us except time." And they have of that no knowledge; they are only assuming. 5- (We had certainly brought you the truth, but most of you, to the truth, were averse.) If you reached here and you didn’t believe that’s for you, god said: ( Have you seen he who has taken as his god his [own] desire, and Allah has sent him astray due to knowledge and has set a seal upon his hearing and his heart and put over his vision a veil? So who will guide him after Allah? Then will you not be reminded? ) Please read the word of god and you will see the beauty and it’s by my word that if you seek the one true god, he will give you everything that you wants and just open your heart With love thanks Gem hope you the best....

Hey gem loved the video I used a quiet room in 2016 in Florida when I had an autistic meltdown a staff member showed us the way and we were able to stay as long as we neeed

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Ahh that’s so good to hear, they had accommodations for you x

[@tinaadams2400]

were going next year with our daughter who uses a chair and her service dog finding these videos just made me so much more relaxed

[@AaronShu]

You're doing great! Thank you for all your extremely valuable content.

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Thank you for your support

[@rogerorchard2317]

Tip 1, tell the plane people, at last 48 hours before hand but as soon as possible, want you get to the air port find the care people, and place your self in there hands they will get you though everything, and make sire you get to the plane at the right time, (I has a problem, and they got the plane delayed for me) book the lunges? to get away for the 1000s of people all trying to be first on the plane, you normally will get free drink, sometime food etc. wait got the care at the other end, and you normally will bypass the long queues and they will get you to your transport. Tip 2, if you are not sure how you will be on a ride make it something it is not the end of the world if you miss it up Tip 3 have a plan B, C , D ..... you may love a ride and want to go back to it, it may be raining it may be too hot, your body may need a day off, the hotel are lovely have a day looking around it Tip 4 stay on site, if you have problem, Disney can help more, (I had a fit, Disney just put me and my wife in the back of a minibus got us back to our room, and check up on us, made sure we had food etc) Tip 5 if you need help ask a cast member, if they can not help you they will find that can help you, (it can break up there day, and give them something else to do) Tip 6 get the "PINs" my birthday, my first time ..... Tip 7 when you are booking if it is someones birthday, or it your wife or anything special make sure its in your booking if you are luckly you may get some extra magic, you may not you haven't lost anything. Tip 8 you will not do the whole of Disney (ever) so do not try too, Tip 9, it is a holiday, you are there to have a break and have fun, so have fun and relax and to make it a round 10 again have fun, it is a holiday

[@carolinewebber3751]

Thank you so so much for doing this! We can’t wait to take my daughter and this has really helped me! X

[@LUCY.PARK.06]

Ooo this has made my day. I found your channel 2+ years ago through your Disney vlogs because I love Disney I didn't click on they realising that they were wheelchair related and you have me hook from day one. Love you Gem xx

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Oh yay!! Thank you for your support

[@WheelyHeidi]

If you think you will hire a wheelchair or mobility scooter for the whole trip, don't just think about hiring one at each park. There are loads of companies that hire pushchairs, scooters and wheelchairs and deliver/pick up from the hotel. Much cheaper and you have them for your non disney park days too.

[@Staren01]

Love it. Love it. Love It. I've been to Disney World solo with a wheelchair three times now. It really is one of the most accessible and fun places to go.

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Ah cool. Yep I’d be confident going on my own too. 😊

[@davefinney6652]

Gem Hubbard. I like you and I like all your vide.s

[@MandieZangora]

Ahhhhhh I’m going to Disney in TWO WEEKS and although I’ve been so lucky to have been many times (and a couple times in my chair), this is my first time going on oxygen and with a feeding tube so I’m nervous about that part and all the supplies that I need to have with me & my family’s stuff overcrowding my chair because, as you well know, us wheelies tend to be pack mules for friends and family. Any tips for that? I’ll be thinking of you guys while I’m there!!!

[@WheelyHeidi]

How was it?

[@gameoftomes14]

15:16 When I’ve been to Disney recently, the crowd has been a little rowdy after the fireworks. I’ve stayed parked in my wheelchair while the crowd dissipates to avoid jostling.

[@tomlee252]

I'm a huge Toy Story fan, loving the shirt

[@richardholder8970]

Gem we are going back to Disney world next year I have PPMS so my mobility is getting slowly worse I will be having to use my wheelchair 🦽 an awful lot but I’m looking forward to getting back to Disney world, and watching your vlogs are really helpful

[@Jaggededge112]

Helpful tips and tricks. I've never actually been to Disney either park in the US but I have been to Busch Gardens and I believe a Nickelodeon theme park and of course Six flags over Texas and we have a very popular water park here called Schlitterbaun, they all seem to be disability friendly.

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Ah amazing. I went to Busch gardens when I was a kiddo x

[@whiteclouddakota1451]

Loved this video! Thank you so much for this phenomenal video

[@zhw5555]

I fell asleep on a ride at I think disney or Alton towers my dad pushed me halfway around the place and boy did I get a shock when I woke up somewhere else

[@sksksksksksk116]

I’m legally blind but also I have leg problems first time I went to Disney I ended up not doing much from pain. So next I know that I can get a wheelchair.

[@sunshinetaradise]

Yay!!! Your Disney videos are the best!!!!!!!

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Glad you enjoyed it.

[@KissesFromCanada]

I’ve been a DFB fan for a few years now, AJ and crew do such an amazing job! Just like you do! Jem, for longer-haul journeys such as Disney, is there a reason you don’t do a power chair? My arms were sore just watching this, lol (but I have MS).

[@SnowySpiritRuby]

I won't answer for her, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's because she has 2 other people who can push her if needed.

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Hi Sarah. Yeah DFB were awesome when I was researching our trip. Yeah as snowy said, I have Shaun abs db, and I’m relatively ok for short amounts of time on my own. I’d love a smart drive. And I also have a batec, have you seen the videos on that??

[@kevinrigby4148]

Watched your video today excellent content. After extensive research am I right in thinking that under the new das rules use of wheelchair with no other medical conditions no longer qualifies for a pass by the way the disabled entrance to big Thunder Mountain is past the entrance round to the left to the exit Kevin

[@mechnaprime3637]

I went last year, It would have been *impossible* without the DAS pass!

[@josiemarshall2226]

Very niche but my tip is on main street always cross the tram rails perpendicular in your wheelchair. Otherwise you run the risk of your front wheel dropping in the gap between and breaking like what happened to me😟

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Thats a fab tip, especailly as we are all looking at the beautiful castle

[@giulianaayala1861]

Hi! Do you know if they can lend you a wheelchair? Because I am disabled and use a cane 24/7, but when I have to walk a lot, like in Disney, it would be really helpful to have a wheelchair to rest and enjoy the time better.

[@josiemarshall2226]

Yeah they have wheelchairs to rent at the front of the parks for about $12 a day. But they aren't in the best condition (worn breaks, uncomfy seat, super low push handles giving anyone pushing you a bad back from being so hunched over) and you have to leave them at the park, which can make leaving the park, getting on a bus or the car hard as there still is a lot of waiting, standing and walking. My suggestion is rent a wheelchair from a mobility company based in orlando for the entire length of your stay! It is so much easier that way. There is plenty of information online if you google it 😊

[@ameee01]

Thank you, Gem! Awesome video 👏👏👏

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Glad you liked it x

[@DANNYTHEFROG123]

The Disney videos are the best.

So much joy

[@lizdyson3627]

Love this Video.

SUNSCREEN!!! And more sunscreen! 😄

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Hell yes!! I burned though sunblock!!

[@akakinem4505]

It’s awesome. Thank you so much!

[@Wheelsnoheels]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@GAINZonWHEELS]

I’m not a Disney lover, but the vibe feels great and hot hot hot I like that even, less pain, but I live in Holland and when it is hot there is a lots of fog in the air and that hurts like hel, love spain warming ..

[@kevinray1382]

Can't you just go through the fast past lane and have your companion queue on the normal with the normal time and once they go to the front of the line you will go with them. Same wait time as the others right.

[@ecologist_to_be]

No because if you need a companion/carer you need them to stay with you for a reason.

[@kevinray1382]

@@ecologist_to_be there there for family right, not all people need help but they are in vacation technically as family

[@kevinray1382]

@Perregrine Perch ok

[@georgethecat771]

Did you know that they have beds to lay down at Disney if you need to? Most people don't know about them.

[@richardholder8970]

Gem I love the sun but it doesn’t like me anymore but?

[@zhw5555]

My tip is let your dad push you every where doesn’t work for everyone did for me

[@nggdsb]

After Disney's knee jerk reaction to johnny depp's court issue, I will no longer support them in any way shape or form consciously.....

[@LemoncloudGT]

or sit in a dark starbucks cos they hide their starbucks lol

[@brandonschroeder934]

Lol EXECPT Canada lol we are still on lockdown

[@bunniesbunniesbunnie]

I understand the abled folks being comfortable with getting covid; I don't understand the disabled community being excited about the level of exposure to an illness we're higher risk for serious complications with. I've seen so many people die and you seem so excited about some of us being counted in those numbers in upcoming months. I don't get it. Still an excellent video, but it just doesn't click for me. Sorry =(
