Hi Kathryn, just came across your channel today and I am blown away by your grace, mindset and candour. I never usually comment but its a lesson to us all on how to regroup after a tough event and choose not to be a victim. Wish you all the happiness and success that you deserve and am sure with your drive and independence you will achieve it. Very inspirational and thanks for sharing.

U sounds like U R a very strong self reliant young woman. May the lord bless you and everyone of your friends and family too. October 13,2023. Time 2:55 A.M. I just got through with my shower. I have to have a visiting nurse come here today to help change my UNABOOTS I have two toes with wounds on them from having my ingrown toenail’s surgery last year. They haven’t been healing ❤️‍🩹 up like they should. I found out this year that I am a different sugar I have very low sugar type diabetes. When it drops too low I could pass out but I have not had that happen yet thank God. After my shower a while ago I got didn’t mean for them to get wet I use large garbage bags around my legs and then duct tape them I thought I had them sealed pretty good but turned out both my feet got wet and that means both legs are wet and Una boots have to be changed. You take care and I hope you’re still hear you healing. And take care God bless you🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@sum1sw]

10:07 "...I know I am beautiful in my own way..." No Kathryn, you are beautiful in every way. 11:03 "...I feel like an inconvenience...". Two points if I may: 1) You come across charming and a person who is fun to be with; not an inconvenience. 2) I have a friend who had an injury which landed her in a wheelchair for maybe 2 month; a period during which she did not want to "inconvenience" me. Regrettably, I failed to convince her that as a friend, it is not an inconvenience at all, it is actually a pleasure (yes a pleasure) to help our friends. And to be honest, it bothered me that she rejected my help whenever I offered it, but later on I realized that she actually gets pleasure when she gets things done alone without help. I hope you do not find this confusing.

[@georgefrazer2231]

Everyone goes through hardships is very very true. We have to 'rest in the goodness' of God. We will never understand the reason why we 'go through' 'trials'. We see many people 'having a good time' but 'inside' they may actually have 'struggles' that we never ever know about. Strangers 'love to stare' at others. Maybe it's a mechanism for 'coping' with their own 'problems'. We need to respect everyone's 'personal space' and 'curiosity' is 'not' a 'get out clause' when you are simply apparently 'not respecting' another person. Thank you for this video. May we all know that we are surrounded by the love of the Lord Jesus Christ and that 'all things work together for good for those that love God''. Man looks on the outside but the Lord Jesus Christ looks 'on the heart' of everyone and can 'see inside us' and what we are 'really' like.

[@dcbalive]

Hey!! I just came across your channel. Great job! I am also a T4 paraplegic complete - 52 years ago! Yep, was paralyzed at 2. You remind me of myself when I was younger. If YOU have any questions about life in a wheelchair (looking ahead) please reach out. With God’s help I live life to the fullest with tons of adventures with my 5 kids and now 6 grandchildren!

[@raphaelmonte-pg8qb]

When people stare is because U R so gorgeous, my angel. Don't digest it the wrong way.

[@xDontStandInTheFirex]

I am staring, but not because of the wheelchair - You're absolutely gorgeous.

[@grantpicklesimer2995]

Hello there Kathryn! I watched this video earlier and I must say I'm completely impressed by your attitude, perseverance and by your ability to never allow your wheelchair to slow you down! I am in a wheelchair myself and have been for my entire life pretty much. I have a condition called Spina Bifida! You are beautiful and I hope you continue to strive for the very best with each day God gives you! God Bless! 🙏

[@marvin7533]

I work with adults and children with intellectual and physical disabilities. Some are also quadriplegic. It irritates me when we go on community outings, and people stop and stare like we're aliens. The worst ones are tourists from other countries. I stop and stare back like what are you looking at? Once I give that hard stare back, it's like oops, I'm sorry!

[@wilkindelvalleoficial9110]

God bless you from Dominican Republic

[@MrSamurailanx]

I would not stop staring at you for being so beautiful in and out. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@rgalarza2]

Been in a wheelchair for just better than a year now - really appreciate your vulnerability and thoughts. I struggle with a lot of the same things - VERY self-conscious when I am out in public. BTW, you are so pretty, hope you don't struggle with too much insecurity.

Don't know if you've discontinued your ventures with this channel, but I would like to just say you're doing a terrific job with the unfortunate cards you were dealt. It is always so inspiring to see someone that got into a terrible accident continue to push on and live their best life. I hope you are continuing your journey through college and having a great time, and I know you'll prevail in life. Keep rocking Kathryn.

[@morgancalvi6675]

Regarding question 3...the walking with crutches or braces. If her injury were incomplete and she had either some sensation or movement, she may be able to. However, I believe she said she is a T3-T4 complete...which means no signals get past the spinal cord past her level of injury.
