My daughter at an early age told me she didn't want me doing her hair. I wouldn't want someone pulling my hair so long fire such lame results either....
Now turn around and do it again, i want to see how it's done!

I would like to hear where she is going with her comment about learning to respond emotionally to having a disability. It is a significant part of recovery and should be recognized as such

Completely agree! I talk about it a lot in my work. You might be interested in the end of this engagement where I talk a little more about it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZxpy62Rac6cpbg.html

From personal experience it’s kind of like a very long grieving process. You grieve for the life you lost and for the future life you were planning to have.
Ok that was straight the best magic trick I’ve ever seen lol

Nah 100% Where can I learn this?!
That's genuinely really impressive, I imagine it was quite the feeling the first time you managed to do that successfully
immediately tried it on my own, spectacularly failed. shot the hair tie across the room and hit a vase - thankfully didn't break
When I was 30, my husband had a massive stroke. He can’t use his right arm and his leg is similar to yours. He has to walk with a cane. He also has aphasia. So communicating is difficult, even after 4 years. It’s so inspiring to see this. I wish I had seen things like this when his stroke first happened. I was so scared he’d never walk or talk again. ❤

i don’t consider myself as having a disability but i have fibromyalgia and the first 2 or so years of having it were really emotionally rough. between being put on a medication that made things worse, not having proper pain management, having a doctor that didn’t listen to me, and being in nonstop full body pain while trying to work a job, i was stressed enough, but having to accept on top of it that i was never going to be normal again, was really, really hard. but eventually i learned how to rearrange my life to accommodate myself better. it took time but i’m doing okay now, i know how to manage and i am used to it. this woman seems like she has a great sense of humor, she’s strong. i have no idea how she even got that hair tie on like that 😂 bad ass.
I knew Emily from her years in middle/ high school. She was amazing then, and she's amazing now!
Love that flex.
Talk about turning your disability into a superpower
I thought this was gonna be a stand-up skit but instead got hit with the feels. Lovely video.
I gave the fuck up when my left hand was in a cast and shaved my damn head! Girl has more determination than me! 😂
i just know I JUST KNOW this woman gets comments like "you don't look disabled" and i know it because she's beautiful and is able to convey herself. everyone expects disabilities to be completely physically or cognitively obvious but that is just not the case. her experience however with formerly being in that state makes her incredibly important to the disabled community because she can articulate what that is like and how she is still disabled despite recovery, and that people with all disabilities are deserving of respect, recognition, and accommodation
I never underestimate women's ability to adapt.
Honestly I didn't think it was possible!
Thanks. ❤
That's incredible! So proud of you
May God's peace be with you is my prayer.
LOVE
It took me a while to do it with 1.5 hands.
Yoo thats such a good transition

Subbing!
So I just tried it. I think there’s magic involved
Wow. I even struggle with my two hands haha.
Wait, but, fr I really wanna know how to do that!!
HOW DID SHE DO THAT?!
WHAT KIND OF SOURCERY! Takes me five minutes to do it with two hands and it doesn't look that good either 😂
I want to see the whole talk
i recently tried to do this while holding an ice cream and i failed
I knew a girl who only had half of her left arm and she would put her her hair in a ponytail with no issue all the time.
How did she do that
Can we get the rest of the talk?

I think it only works because she has short hair. Long hair would get tangled in the scrunchie one handing it like this.
When you cant use something you learn very interesting ways to make up for it.
Well that escalated quickly
Gorgeous dress, where is it from if you don’t mind

aaannnnnd scene
Why did they end the video like that. Everything was uplifting but went down .
Witch!
So really nobody is going to talk about what kind of disability she has?
Useful for when you get down on your knees and your other hand is occupied.
