I hope the little girl can have as complete a life as possible. Be well child.

Like, even though your spine is hosed, you're totally awesome. You go, girl!

Excellent video, thanks for posting, much appreciated. Hang in there brave Bel : )

Amazing brave girl. X

Poor kid :(

Bummer that she's in such a bad way; per chance her spinal cord could be repaired or bypassed with technology some day.

No it's not a bummer...she is a productive person and will be even better in some ways. I think if you and her mum research spinal cord injury research, you will find it is no further now in 2021 than it was years ago. Her mum and you are living a pipe dream hoping and wishing and not making the most of right now. Her trachy could clog up and she could conceivably die...and what will you and she remember of the NOW times? Not much...just hopes and dreams of a future that may never be. Wake up and be realistic. I broke C4 in 1983 when I was 22...I was an incomplete injury and even walked again. A bone infection got into my spine and irritated things all over again and I am in a wheelchair. Because I am now 60...guess what...a) the injury is too old to do anything with and b) so am I...they wouldn't waste their time...so make the most of NOW and be realistic.

@Emmy exactly...living in a dream world...you get nothing done. The longer it takes you to accept things...the longer it takes you to decide to live and learn how to do things. The longer you take to get people to help you...the longer you don't have a life because only you can be number 1 and prevent forest fires. I have been waiting almost 3 years for someone to help with a busted hip and leg. They aren't...that's almost 3 years not doing things I could have enjoyed.

@Emmy Well, Canada is letting people sit and suffer. I wonder if I didn't have a loss of sensation, how much it truly WOULD hurt. Yes, I am hurting., but apparently games and all. Well, I'm not playing games. I'l just take care of my legs and hip myself I guess. I don't want to and I'm really not looking forward to it...but I really need something done. I honestly think it's an age discriminatory thing because I'm 60...and a couple of doctors (both at the QE II hospital in Halifax, NS, Ross Leighton and Sean Barry) said, 'Oh, after 50, we don't offer prosthesis....'. But they have let me sit a year now.

Bummer that she is in such a bad way. Awesome that she has at least one functional hand.

Why is everyone saying it's a bummer? Expecting something else is really a slap in the face. What, just because she is paralyzed, she can't make a wonderful impact on the world? Think again.
