Luis' Independence (He Got the Van!)

[@SpecialBooksbySpecialKids]

Lexie told me that Luis has been incredibly motivated by the messages he has received on his social media. Before the first video he would hide away, somewhat ashamed of his current state. But since the influx of positive messages he has a renewed sense of purpose and dignity. I have linked his social accounts in the description above, keep the positive messages coming. Luis is about to start therapy and could use a team behind him!

Special Books by Special Kids I LOVE THIS 😭

[@NeoKirchBaby]

This little girl is so eloquent and her love for her dad. So proud of her to for loving her dad the way he is. There are children that get embarrassed of their parents when they are different. I am going to train my children this way. I want them to know that even though I am disabled and different, I love them. And when they see the love from the parent, they love back. This girl is a model for my children!

His attitude is so admirable and smile is absolutely infectious. He seems like such a wonderful husband and father. He just radiates love in a way I’ve never observed before. Both his wife and daughter are so strong and full of grace. That little girl is already such a force for good in the world. I am so happy that this family now has the independence and freedom that everyone deserves. His wife is so well spoken and is an incredible advocate on Luis’ behalf. Thank you Chris and Alyssa for once again bringing tears to my eyes and joy to my heart.

My sister has a son with Down syndrome and he's 30 years old now and is the most amazing human being you'll ever meet in your life. He is happy and content and excited every day. He exudes enthusiasm and the world is a better place because of him. Sometimes I think us 'normal' or able-bodied people need to be more like the special needs people... Happy and Content.

It must have been so difficult for him to not be able to venture out into nature for so long. He skateboarded and rode motorcycles before his accident, so he’s clearly a guy who loves being outside, feeling the wind through his hair, and seeing what nature has to offer.

Chris, I would like to tell you from the bottom of my heart, you are doing the work others are to afraid to do, you are normalizing what is considered abnormal and making these people’s lives much, MUCH, better, to you and everyone working with SBSK, thank you, thank you all so very much.

[@stephsmanicshenanigans8017]

I hope he is able to get a device to communicate next, he seems to have so much he wants to say! I get so much anxiety watching his eyes because he expresses so much through them. I was crying by the end, so awesome they have the van now.

[@unlikelyaspy23]

Stephanie Mullins I think he signs a bit (ASL) because when she asked him if he was happy he responded ‘yes’ in sign language.

[@Amber-zg4zo]

Awesome Aspy He wasn’t signing yes, he was pointing at his daughter.

[@tutuvo07]

[@amiesparkle00]

Me too!! He was vocalizing a lot.

[@deefhead8440]

He kept trying to speak but they would speak over him or he wouldn’t have a chance to get a word in. I’m sure they didn’t mean to, but that’s what seemed like was happening. I think a communication device would be great for him!

Clover is such an intelligent, thoughtful, beautiful child. Having such a loving, seriously disabled dad has undoubtedly heightened her awareness, and increased her empathy, sensitivity & consideration for others. Her mom is an excellent role model, of course, as well...

THIS is what people should be donating to. Not KZbin celebrities begging for likes, subs and Patreons "patrons" just because they put out entertaining videos.

[@OuuRichBarbie]

I agree what ever money I do get to spare I always will donate to people like this who deserves it

[@Kroakee]

I think donating to KZbinrs is completely fine, they need to make a living somehow. They're giving us quality content, but they can't do it for free, they need money.

[@HAL-dm1eh]

@@Kroakee But they can do it for free. It's what built KZbin. Don't let those asking you for money pledges fool you. Besides, you don't make a living off of begging for donations.

[@OuuRichBarbie]

@@Kroakee true what you're saying but people like this deserve it a bit more you know.. just to give them that extra push and help..

[@Kroakee]

@@HAL-dm1eh I mean I think it's amazing that people donate to help people with problems out of their control, it's what makes us human. I was just arguing the point that some people make their living off of KZbin and since the adpocalypse they haven't been able to earn as much so they ask for donations to keep their channel running. They can't do it for free if it's how they make their living. They could have done it without donations before the adpocalypse, but this is what KZbin is now.

It doesn't seem like they live together. In the beginning they say we're going to pick up someone special, then as they arrive his daughter says "we're at my dads house and im excited" or something like that. I think watching their life would be heartbreaking but humbling.

I wonder if he lives in Mexico because he gets cheaper care there. Like if maybe they could afford it he would live with them. It would be nice to be able to follow this family more.

He isn't a U.S. citizen and can't become one because he's disabled. Maybe that's why he lives in Mexico. It would be nice to know the facts.
