About Cole & Charisma:
Welcome to the official Roll with Cole & Charisma KZbin channel! Since the start of our relationship we've gotten a lot of questions about our experiences as not only an interracial couple, but an interabled one as well. On this channel you can catch us doing travel and adventure vlogs, challenges, our inclusion series, couple first times, music, and so much more! We started this vlog to bring people into our lives, to answer some questions about how we navigate the world, and hopefully raise awareness surrounding accessibility and dating in a wheelchair. You'll quickly see in our episodes that we're all about inclusion and keeping a great attitude no matter your circumstances, so if that's what you're into, you're in the right place!

Ive been a quad for 28 years and for the 1st 18 years i refused to use anything but a fully manual chair because I felt more independent and i felt to crippled in a power chair. I went to college with big hills and 50 pounds of books hanging off the back and EVERYONE said get a power chair. But i refused. What a fool i was. Now my shoulders are destroyed. Constant pain daily and really affected my shoulder mobility. I finally got one and as i feared ive lost alot of strength but i cldnt imagine going back now. But im also 45 years old now. So i totally understand Cole wanting a manual or assisted chair but dont wait to long, dont be stubborn like me. Listen to your body and when its time dont fight it. My wife and I both love your channel. Keep up the great work.

[@amandarenee3423]

I'm 33 with muscular dystrophy and I'm in a wheelchair. I'm in a interabled relationship. (almost 17 yrs) My husband takes care of me. I have a reclining wheelchair and I'll never go back 💯 we recently found y'alls channel and we have been binge watching. I love the sound effect when Cole smacks charismas booty🤣 we also watch squirmy and grubbs. God bless ❤from Mississippi

[@heatherm6105]

Hey guys! I wanted to mention something that would save TONS on the walls being damaged in your home with a wheel chair. What I’ve done is put up vinyl plexiglass sheets on the walls, you can choose white if the walls are white, or clear if they’re painted in colors, and you bolt them on the walls so they don’t have to be repaired when you bang into them whatsoever. They’re really resistant and can be changed out if you bolt them with small screws into the framing behind the drywall. Saved so much time and grief over any accidental hits and looks great! You can buy 4x8 ft sheets at any building supply store.

[@Tayjahbaby8371]

so true...sort of like in-home bumpers/protectors.

[@TheRight-handedStranger]

I thought about this idea when I watched the video where Charisma demonstrated using the wheelchair not only for her to understand what Cole experiences everyday but to also show us mobile people how it feels for quads to always have to use wheelchair with limited hand movements, and she bumped into walls, and then Cole said that he does it too sometimes.

[@TheRealGNC]

Cole I knew you were tall but you are TALL!. 😧 Charisma, you are one strong little mama!.💪🏽

[@sandram.2022]

Right? I didn't know he was 6'3! No wonder Charisma referred to him as a "big guy" once

[@zbeautyqueen]

There is a video earlier on when they first met that Cole was standing (with assistance) and he and charisma hugged

This was such a interesting vlog, I never knew how one was fitted for a wheelchair and that there were so many styles. When Melanie put you in the first chair I could see a big difference in your posture Cole... Thank you Cole & Charisma for taking us with you❤️ The power chair wow, that was like driving a roll Royce car...

[@mejusthot]

Sadly not everyone receives this treatment when going for a wheelchair assessment. It's amazing to me that Cole is receiving such care. I'm grateful assessments like this exist for some people who need them. I pray someday everyone of us who needs this kind of care gets this. Personally I've never even gotten all of this care at hospital assessment for wheelchair

[@mommabierman5168]

What a cool lady! I loved being a part of Cole’s appointment. I’m so impressed with this caregiver. You’re lucky to have access to her!

[@singinglibrarian]

The process of the chair fitting is fascinating.

[@JenJean1234]

Cole, I work with young adults that use chairs for mobility. Some will reject them for the same reasons you stated. Get your workout in another way. These high tech chairs are so much better for skin integrity, posture, emotional wellbeing etc... you will benefit from it greatly. They can lay flat for easier transfer to a bed. They have so many advantages. I hope you give this a lot of serious thought. God bless!❤

[@2463sugarbear]

I was thinking the same thing

[@therealzuxana]

I was recently transitioned to a power chair and I was so very reluctant for the same reason Cole stated. When my OT explained that the motion injuries I had in both shoulders and elbows would never heal and only get worse, I relented. Took delivery of my new power chair three months ago, and I couldn't bee happier! And my injuries are already healed 😁

[@mays_alpha]

Praying that the insurance will pay cole's chair not only for this one but for every chair that he need it

[@lindaw7211]

My husband has the same level of injury as you and recently got a power chair that allows him to stand. He loves it. It’s good for your organs and also for your bones to be standing. They are expensive but sometimes insurance will pay for the entire chair. Our insurance paid for his first one but recently he got a good deal on a secondhand one.

[@ninaappelt9001]

He has a thing that let's him stand. It's good for his muscles and bones, plus he's off his butt for a bit. He almost faints at first when he stands and has to let him get settled.

The tilt feature is a game changer! I know I'd be do lost without it. I have a lot of tone and I don't bend easily so I tend to slide out of my chair. The recline holds me in my chair and it gives me a way to relieve pressure on my butt without having to ask for help this making me more independent!

[@DP-gx4dr]

This was really interesting, that they can make him a better chair to fit his needs😃

[@ladybuglover4eva52]

You guys are awesome! I'm so appreciative of your videos always, but this particular one taught me so much!

Cole, get the power chair and come up with an exercise/workout routine for your upper body. It is much better for you that way and your overall greater body good

[@NIDE528]

Dear Cole, while I would never pray for anybody to go through what you did in terms of your accident, I believe that things happen atimes to a person to give hope and encouragement and inspire confidence in others. You guys are so sincere and thoughtful in giving us a glimpse of your lives and are helping to spread some sunshine and positivity and bringing hope to the lives of others.

[@cherylb1586]

It was very interesting. I could tell that chair was a mercedes. lol. I hope you will be able to get the chair soon.

[@lezup]

Melani looks pretty confident in being able to help. Great questions, to think about. Nobody can judge your weight, we’ve all gained this year. It’s interesting to see all they do to make sure they can get you doing better.

[@brendawarren6696]

I have been watching you on and off. After watching this I realised how blessed my son is. He was in an accident about 4 year ago and his C7 got chipped and he was in a neck brace for about 3 weeks. I see now if that C7 was broken he would have been in a wheel chair and there would have been no way we could have afforded anything like the chair you have and the one you want without help from charity and private donations especially with us being in the Caribbean. But I am happy that you are both happy and confident. I also love how you both take everything in stride. Continue to love and support each other God bless

[@dianeschreader8112]

Cole, you continually amaze. Your attitude is so inspiring. God definitely has plans for you and Charisma.

[@inekogary8870]

A lot of my patients here in Tampa Florida at the VA hospital. Has that exact same wheelchair where you can lay it back to sleep in it. Because a lot of my VA patients cannot transfer at all in and out of the wheelchair and don’t have hand function to use a manual wheelchair. So they have that exact same wheelchair and he told me they love it. The only time they get into the bed at night time when it’s to go to bed again people help them like the nurses and the doctors help them to transfer into their wheelchair in the morning and then I just stuck in a Throughout the day and if they want to take a nap they lay it back all the way and just take a nap in it. Because you can literally sleep in that wheelchair. And Cole I think that wheelchair will be good for you to help stretch your body out go with that one and that’s just my opinion because I’ve been with the VA hospital for five years but I haven’t been in a year because of COVID-19.
