Quadriplegic Does First Q & A!

[@brittanyMdavis]

I just started watching your videos about a week ago. I absolutely love how genuine and positive you are. It's crazy how someone you have never met can impact your life and make you see things more clear. I have a new appreciation and outlook on life. Thank you for the videos!! ♡♡

[@lilyyroz3046]

yes you're so inspiring!!

[@755Tangerine]

You know what? You never know what progress in medicine will bring. I'm not hoping for miracles, I'm just so convinced, as a doctor myself, that medical research will go very far, very soon. So keep being positive.

[@notyeetmeister8044]

I'm glad you found something you like to do man. God bless you brother.

[@yn109]

Hi Zack! My mother and I always watch your videos. She showed me your video and she said "He is so vivid." and since then we wonder what is going on in your life and follow your videos. You inspire us for being determined and lively. You have a perfect family and we hope you will be better and better. We love you.

[@angief8597]

Purrrfect! Great format and informative. You always cheer me up BC you have an awesome attitude. Doing a great job. You are breaking barriers and helping us who haven't been close to a spinal injury to understand your challenges. Belly rub to Sedona!

[@BensDad2003]

Zack, you are an amazing individual and an inspiration to all that watch your videos! I wish more people in this world had your drive, compassion and strong will. Thank you for sharing your life story with us...

[@keysersoze5633]

Positive guy, great mom, great dad, hot girl, and getting a degree...now I feel like crap. Joking aside, if you are ever in Virginia let me know. I would love to meet and hang out.

[@sukysandoval2838]

Zack Dios te bendiga y logres todos tus sueños y metas alado de los seres que te aman no hablo inglés pero entiendo tu historia de vida y eres un guerrero sigue todas tus metas desde México te deseo lo mejor de la vida bendiciones😁🤗🙏

[@aprendizfeliz6069]

1:15 haha It is impossible not to love Sedona. Thanks for a new video Zack ;).

[@lucadavidian5441]

I'm going through some hard times and your videos always put a smile on my face, love your attitude and content! Cheers from Rome, IT

[@landenhurbi4748]

Most of my questions were answered in this video. I appreciate all the info you're sharing about your journey. My question I have for you regarding your education is how do you take notes for your classes and how do you take exams? Good luck on your education and I'm looking forward to your next video.

[@tea-skyy]

Thank you Zack for answering my questions and questions others had in this video. Also, for sharing all the wonderful pictures. Your family and girlfriend and Sedona are beautiful. I hope you get PayPal or a PO box so your viewers can send you things. But I respect your choice if you choose not to. Hugs and blessings! Stephanie

[@davemorris6644]

You have great courage to put yourself and your life out there for everyone to see. You will live to see remarkable advances in medicine. Keep up your faith in yourself and in science. I’m proud of you!

[@ntyrkind]

Congrats on doing grad school!!! That’s amazing! You’re a badass!!!! 💪🏼

[@adamy.8835]

Heyy

[@ricog8209]

Although I didn't ask any it seems you answered some questions I didn't know I had. I like how you still keep that positive attitude despite your challenges. Idk if I'd have the strength to. I have a fully working body and get myself down about such trivial things. You're very inspirational. Your dog seems to know when you're talking about her. 😃

[@kimyungchai1798]

You are so sweet. I have chronic migraine and neuropathy and my stuff is probably like a walk in the park compared to yours. People like you are the true heroes in life. :)

[@gaill7908]

Congrats on Grad School and your everlasting positive attitude!

[@ondramarec]

you are a warrior. i live czech republic. and we know that we meet with heavy life. and you , all your family friends a lot of love and happiness

[@zikoubeneljeya7571]

Sending you lots of love & support from tunisia, love your postive energy

[@angelatemplin600]

I am a nurse that has worked with TSCI in a rehab setting for about 5 years. What would be your top 3 things you wished to you had learned or worked more on before going home?

[@calientejr]

Zack I would love if you could make a video directed at how healthcare workers can improve their care with SCI patients. I'm a peds nurse and knowing how I can help young people with SCIs would be very helpful. All people are different but seeing the patients perspective is so important.

[@tabatha5554]

Hi Zack thanks for the videos. Your an inspiration to many people and I love your smile and personality! You deserve so much happiness and not just because of the injury but for who you are aside from being a quadriplegic. You don't let it define you and I think that's amazing. Your girlfriend is beautiful too!

[@luciennes1979]

Love your smile and personality. Love from Malta xxxx

[@chrissyfoley7361]

I wish you the best in school. You are wise to put that first. I always enjoy your videos.

[@johnperpah4665]

When I used to shake like that from a different diagnosis I told my wife I was her human vibrator.

[@dianagarcia6389]

Eres un muchacho muy valiente, un ejemplo a seguir!

[@mrs2u441]

I truly love watching your videos, when I see your face I instantly smile. Your spirit is so beautiful inside and out, and your so calming to watch. Keep up the good work Zach! And my question is have you found that starting your KZbin channel has been therapeutic for you???

[@rosamorel9621]

Thank Zack for answering some of the questions.

[@GabbyTTran]

Hi Zach. Keep up it the videos! With your very positive attitude, you’ll make far. Stay strong !

[@crittert7828]

When you do the tattoo video would you please do a closer view of your tattoo. Couldn’t see it too well🎈

[@elez400]

His tattoos are bad ass man!

[@Jill1228]

[@piotrfilec]

Great video! I wish you good health! Greetings from Poland!

[@donaldstorm4959]

I hope I can get back to your questions I'm currently driving so I can't talk on the phone or watch it I'm at a red light right now. You have an awesome dog what a nice companion he is!!!

[@potpie1987]

You have such a positive attitude! Love it!

[@vaibhavkapoor4402]

you are so sweet bro to make all of one happy I wish you will get well soon🙏

[@shearerslegs]

Thanks for sharing your story, I am in love with Sedona and wish we lived near one another so she could play with Onyx. They’re trained to be very different but I think I can partially understand the impact that she must have on your life. Good luck with your studies, I always think that if possible education is a path to an easier life, particularly if you’re facing extra challenges in some way.

[@mitziekennedy]

Awesome Q&A! What are you going to school for? What did you want to do for work before your accident? I pray they find a cure for spinal cord injuries soon! I

[@meskeremesheta5858]

Nice to see you everytime bro

[@adamy.8835]

Heyy

[@lex73460]

You're a wonderful guy, Zach! Thank you for your kindness and sincerity. May God help you! I love you! Greetings from Ukraine. ❤️

[@janetsides901]

I worked taking care of a lady who had M.S. She was a quadriplegic,because of it. She was awesome,we became close friends,I watched her kids grow up,she saw mine grow up. When her legs spasmed I would hold onto her knees,kind of pushing on them. It stopped the spasm. I'm sure you have probably tried everything,but thought I would pass that along.

[@mikeotolski9549]

Thats awesome! Hope you do well in school.

[@alenaborchert9848]

[@amb817]

I have another question that just popped in my head, when does your service dog know when it's time to work and time to be on "break"? Or does she always have to be ready to assist you? Sorry for my ignorance. I just don't know how that works. Always enjoy your videos and educating us

[@yurunning5574]

He made a video on that

Zack ur wonderful. Love from Kenya

[@donaldstorm4959]

Awesome updates Zach take care buddy

[@VulcanOnWheels]

4:01 I've wondered about that as well when I watched your haircut video. To me, it looks like two wheelchairs made into one. 6:21 I don't understand why anyone would get a tattoo, let alone when you have sensitive skin. 8:10 I have seen that controller, but I didn't know that it was made by Microsoft. I noticed that one or two of your videos were deleted. Do you know why, and can you make a version of these videos that account for that reason?

[@jenniferhall3321]

I just stumbled on your videos and i gotta say your an inspiration to me. Ill definately be subscribing :)

[@gladysfeliciano5268]

GOOD LUCK WITH SCHOOL, LOVE YOUR DOG

[@juramos6431]

You are admirable !

[@topopolis]

How did your tattoo go with the autonomic dysreflexia? I've considered one but figured it would just set that off.

[@chrisw9643]

Great video 😌

[@aquilaclark814]

Nice vlog..thx so much for sharing

[@noorhantony594]

YOU ARE A STRONG MAN

[@louloubieberful]

How do you cope through the bad days when your condition gets you down? P.s been watching you for a few months now and your definitely one of my favorite KZbinrs!

[@LusaïlToDoha]

I love your personality.

I love you so much,,zack collie..i miss you😘😘

[@tumbleweedmoon777]

[@ANNA-tu1yq]

God bless you!

[@brandontimblin]

That was cool to hear my comment about your bed wasn't expecting that😀♿️💪👊

[@jessicashlager7193]

There are many benefits that someone with a spinal cord injury would receive from exercise. From the photo you showed, you look like you get in strength training. Do you also do cardio and standing frame? Those would be good for other reasons like making sure your heart is healthy and keeping your bones strong.

[@UWCLUB1]

Great Collie.

[@чудонеформалик]

hello, I am from Russia, I know your story, and then how do you now do not easily hope that everything will be good, and you will recover, I will certainly watch your fate,

[@HelloCoco888]

Hey Zack, my name is Grace. I severed my spinal cord at C3-C4 during my birth (doctors mistake). The fact that I was so young and had very intensive therapy I recovered to the point to where I can walk around (when my right leg has feeling and not too much pain) and retained a lot of function in my left side especially. My right side kind of just comes along for the ride and I have a lot of sensation loss there. Do you get pain? Other that my feeling loss, one of the side effects I still have from my injury 30 years on, is constant severe nerve pain. You are awesome and prove all of us with spinal injuries can still go on to have fufilling lives. I have never had a friend with an SCI before actually. I am originally from New Zealand but I moved to China of all places back in 2016.

[@calbaby-rh7wv]

Have a sweet week

[@mariaaparecidaferreiradoss9647]

Yo no hablo inglés , me encanta tuyos videos 💪 👍

[@toyashaw3182]

You are so awesome... Tfs

[@nikotbnr]

what phone clamp mount thing do you use. thank you much

[@wheelie26]

Great video Zack, I’m just wondering about your spasms. Have you ever taken or do you take an antispasmodic such as baclofen? I’m just asking because after putting up with spasms, especially at night, I have recently started on Baclofen but haven’t had massive success yet. You make great videos, I find them really informative. Another question popped into my head if you don’t mind. Have you ever thought about using a hoist? I know that your mum and girlfriend both manually move you around but I worry about their backs, they are both so small and you are a big guy. Have you thought about or discussed a hoist or another method of moving you that doesn’t involve them manually moving you? Sorry for the long comment 😆

[@kitty_san_1172]

انت بطل اتمنى لك السعادة ♥️

[@tammywhatever8602]

Dude, I just LOVE watching your videos!!! You are such a cool guy! Would love to hang out some day. :) I know politics are soooo saturated these days into our everyday lives, and I apologize in advance, but I can't help but wonder... what would Kaeperknick do, if he had an injury like yours? Would he kneel or would he understand what it is like, living a wonderful life, regardless if your legs or arms worked, without making millions of dollars to throw a ball around? Sorry, I just have to wonder. I am so inspired by you and I want to go to Hawaii with you!!!! It is my favorite place in the whole world! Hugs, from Tammy in Mesa, AZ

[@tammywhatever8602]

Element Air Groan??? What are you, like 12? I have spent a lot of my adult life, working with disabilities and how to overcome IDIOTS who think it's funny, cool and PROFIT to make fun of your peers because they are different. Now that we have a new President, I have to criticize the two-faced liberals who change their opinions to suit their own agendas. SHAME ON YOU FOR "GROANING" ME. Use your brain, okay? Don't listen to the media or social media. God help us.....

[@saraheeeeeee4552]
