[@marriejames01]

I think they will need to actively seek it out. There’s a couple I watch on YT and they had their home built. They even have a pool with a wheelchair ramp.

[@thefriendlypsychopath3894]

Yes and fill their bank accounts with free money to go with the free house.

I can barely carry my purse 👛 😩 up a flight of stairs, and she carried him on her BACK! This strong and absolutely beautiful sister has been blessed with an intelligent, handsome, and independent man... that loves her, supports her, encourages her, motivates her, and inspires her. He is equally blessed to have her. I'm praying for continued growth in their relationship, which hopefully lead to marriage. They're a beautiful couple.🕊🌹

[@Levelhappy78]

She hits the gym she can handle his weight.

[@ariamason9324]

I wonder if he would carry her if the tables were turned. Before her who was carrying him on their back. And yet he hasn't married her. 😒

@@Levelhappy78 So true 👍

[@MT-yx5cu]

​@@Levelhappy78it's going to damage her back eventually; it does matter how strong she is. I hope they stop investing in clothes and brandnames (per IG posts shown in the interview) and invest money into a handicapped accessible home or at least a first floor apartment. They are a cute couple.

I applaud her but she needs to find a better way, perhaps move to an adapted residence because over time she will suffer from back and joint issues and then she will be no good to herself or him.

[@anitahall3340]

I agree, but guys this may me feel good. I hope she gets some help

[@nishia823]

Yes it could be easier for the both of them but I remember seeing them last year on Facebook

[@sunshinenatural8214]

yeah she can love him and not have to do that ....crazy

[@donotsupportterroristgroups]

They are fine, they just need to live in an apartment building that has a ramp or a house with a ramp.

[@Heyu7her3]

​@@donotsupportterroristgroups right, they would've been placed into one but idk why that hasn't happened _(unless they have refused to apply, which if so, I'm not sorry for)_

[@S.J.007]

"Never be someone who doesnt make your life easy" first! We gotta love grandmother's. Second, acknowledging her list and saying it may not come in the package you envision is a true aha! Moment. Because, what I know for sure is God will definitely send you what you want/need when you need it. Beautiful story may you and your families continue to be blessed.

[@squirrell19861]

And what's more amazing is that she met him like this. This incident with him getting shot didn't happen while they were already together. So if she is doing this amazing stuff for him now, imagine what great things she would do once they get married

A beautiful story with beautiful people. Love is Awesome. I worked with two boys who were paralyzed from the waist down, had to lift them daily. That weighed my body down. I hope in the future, they will decide to move to a home without going up the stairs. I know she loves him (it shows in both of them) but the back pain will come, after doing this for so long. Best Wishes to this Beautiful Couple!!❤

[@Heyu7her3]

I've been sitting here so confused... why haven't they been put into an accessible home?

[@SheliaRPierre]

@@Heyu7her3 this story was over three months ago. Their living situation probably had been longer than when this was posted. I surely hope they have moved into a place that is easier accessible for him, so she won't have to be physically putting her health at risk.

[@unbiasedunbossed889]

I would never encourage or recommend anyone to date someone you will have to carry up and down. Imagine if he gained weight...

[@DinaTata]

What an inspiration ❤️ and the way he looks at her when she talks about how he taught her to be patient 😍 goosebumps ❤️❤️❤️

[@idiahome642]

I was married to a paraplegic for like 12 years, we were together about 5 before. We also met online but were casual friends, and it wasn’t until after he was injured that we fell for each other. I came into the relationship knowing everything it would require, but for some reason it never really bothered me. I ised to always say how just easy the relationship was. We had a good life together and made 3 beautiful children together with no procedures or assistance, it just depends on the injury what a person can do. This video touched my heart and reminded me of us starting out.

This is beautiful but carrying a man on your back is not a solution. They need to live in a place that has an elevator or ramp because this is crazy.

We moved her back to PA where her oncologist stated she had stage 4 lung cancer. Had Georgia detected that when we took her to the doctors. She might have lived longer. And my daughter's dad. Was not present to do anything.

[@phoebeandem8015]

@@ce5693 He is a paraplegic, paralyzed in a car accident when he was a teenager, very handsome and intelligent. It was a long distance relationship so when I went to visit him, i realized he needed help with almost everything, bathing, getting in and out of bed, changing clothes, etc. He didn't have a wheelchair accessible vehicle, so we really couldn't go anywhere. He had a nurse to do these things for him, but I knew if we continued our relationship, i would do these things for him. Not to mention the emotional and mental aspect. I didn't know it at the time, but he had a lot of trauma behind his injury and how his life had turned out. This was years ago.

Absolutely beautiful!!!!! May God bless this relationship. And if it is meant may he grant the a wonderful marriage union. I love her spirit of love for someone with such a situation and I love how he isn't allowing a "too proud" spirit take over him and allows her to love him the way he is. I pray they never take one another for granted. Life is short so do all you can when you can and keep God first always!!
