Keep doing everything you can to stay as mobile as possible. That will always be a help. You may have to keep doing physical. Like weekly for the rest of your life. But know that you are worth it and you deserve a shot at living your best life, too. So don't give up or give in! Ask for others to help you get to your goals. Less seizures? What can help? The limp getting worse? What can be done to help? Don't just ask, demand that people who can help give 100% to you, because just for daily living, you have to give 300% of yourself. Sometime others forget that having CP does not mean you have no goals.
Wow, I have had similar issues and conversations with my parents about renting a home versus renting an apartment or even owning a home and the added expense and hassle. Then an apartment renter since 1996. Thank you for this video more than you know.
Congratulations on your new apartment and looking forward to new videos! Ironically, we(my husband & I ) had to suddenly move out of our apartment in New York & moved in with our daughter in North Carolina! We were preparing for a move to NC anyway but not so fast. The former owners secretly sold our small apartment complex to an individual that suddenly raised our rent over $450. over our present rent or basically get out. We were not going to pay that rent so we got out! We felt that if rents are that much higher we would rather pay towards something we owned. We evened considered renting a house but it was owned by a corporation sounding much like what you experienced. They sounded very intrusive also. So we scratched that idea. But our real estate agent seems to have difficulty finding homes in our price range & needs. We just want a 3 bedroom 2 bath(with 1 bath having a low entrance into a shower. A fairly level surface lot & my husband wants a garage. I don't think that's much to ask for. We can only stay with our daughter 3 months according to her landlord. We've been here since September 1st and already feeling anxious about the whole situation. That's my story right now. Like I said, I'm looking forward to your upcoming videos and your lovely positivity. 😊

You are such an amazing person and i really enjoy seeing you overcome issues and show the world it can be done. God bless you in your bew place and stay safe on your adventures.
If you can get in a building that has its' own maintenance dept., not only does it save you the difficulty of doing repairs yourself, but it saves you the hassle of choosing repair services, and a lot of money, cause apartments often provide maintenance and repairs for free.
That must be quite a relief to have the move done, I'm very happy for you
I really enjoy following you Chelsea. Im a 76 year old gpa. I find you a bright light in life. Thank you
Love to see an apartment tour! Noticed the lack of thresholds. Nice to easy move between rooms. Let us know if the floor is "slippery," how to get outside, etc.

Hi, I'm always interested in what you use to adapt and what physical surroundings you prefer: ie, you used the TV tray, but now getting a new couch (very good decision), but what are dimrnensions like for bathroom? Wide door? Roll in shower with a seat? Grab rails by sink and toilet and bath area? Do you have laundry/washer dryer in your apartment? In a laundry room or in a closet? Is it an apartment style laundry unit that has a washer on the bottom and the dryer attached on top? Is there enough room in door way or turn around space in the laundry room area? I want to encourage you to protect your joints and muscles. You are young. But the more you can prevent over use and prevent any kind of repetitive motion that is hurting any joints, muscles or bones, you will age better with less loss of mobility by taking care now. Like some people take extra care to protect their skin from the sun, your protection won't come from a product, but a change in your movements, gait, etc with preventative exercises and mindful ways for being in motion. You remind me of myself at age 28. And the old saying "I wish I knew then what I know now" might have helped immensely in my independence and mobility. But since I eroded things that cannot be replaced, by over doing things, by over using certain parts just because I wanted to keep walking, I am now in a wheelchair. I still long to walk again and am in the process of exploring how to make that happen, I still feel " too young to be old." Wish me luck! I enjoy your posts. An attitude is something we can choose, unlike our physical challenges. We adapt. We strive. We are tenacious. Being willing to keep trying different things when certain therapists or doctors kind of resign themselves to us never being able to be fully able bodied is what will help in life. Or as I like to say "having a disability is not for wimps." Keep up your broadcasts and speaking engagements and keep taking care of you while you keep challenging the reasons behind obstacles from others. Become a disability advocate. Offer a paid service to go evaluate new businesses on their accessibilty, from door ways to turn around spaces, electric doors to enter/exit, heights of light switches, floor room transitions, all of it. It is amazing how naive able bodied persons are, especially lawmakers. I wish every person in charge of permits/construction/traveling for their job would have to spend one week in a wheelchair with no cheating. They would then understand. And hopefully do something about simple things that are obstacles that can be easily fixed! People will listen to you because you are a great communicator, knowledgeable, with a great smile and demeanor. Your beauty will continue to open doors for you---literally and figuratively-- Chelsea! Enjoy the new abode! Rest up from the stress of moving. It takes a lot of energy for everybody to move. Brava for not letting that stop you from fully living--where and however you choose to do so! 😊
I can't say it enough, you are a great person to share your experiences with your disabilities. Myself I find you a great way to inspire others. I hope you don't mind but I find you very beautiful with an excellent confidence.
Enjoy your new place! Thanks for being a positive light!

Great to see you pretty lady . Don't worry about other people. Do whats the best for you. Looking great have a great day.
Well done young Miss. Moving can be rough, on many levels. Thanks for your vid!❤
Apartment building living is so much easier for physically disabled people for many reasons. You don't have to mow the lawn or shovel snow. You have no need to make repairs or even change a lightbulb because building maintenance can do that. Also elevators are extremely convenient. If you are lucky there is an indoor pool and exercise room. Changing a lightbulb is a challenge for me because of balance issues. When a bulb burns out that requiers me to stand on a chair I just call up maintenance and they are often there the same day. I supply the bulb and they change it.
Was wondering about your "downsize move." Makes sense after your explanation. I also lived in a place that never really seemed like "home." I felt like a new person when I finally moved out..!! I'm glad you're excited about your new place. Thank you for sharing. Have fun on your trip(s) Stay safe. Looking forward to your future posts.

So happy you found a better place, congrats! I'm assuming there's no ADA rule about apartments and accessibility? Can't wait to see your new place!
You seem extremely happy with your move Chelsea, and I'm so pleased for you. I hope you will be very happy in your new home and I'll look forward to be being nosey 😊when you eventually upload a video to give us followers a guided tour around. In the meantime take care and keep smiling 💙. For your reference - I associate the colour blue with my favourite soccer team 'Chelsea FC', here in little ol' London, as that is the colour of their main playing kit, hence the blue 'Chelsea' heart.
Happy belated birthday Chelsea.

Look into lift furniture those walmart tables are not safety bars they take a fair beating although I hit mine with my power chair
Yes makes sense what you’re doing. I live in Lauderdale and have rented for a little over 10 years in 2 different places. Now granted it’s ridiculous what I pay in rent and I get told how I should just buy another house and as a Veteran I can even put zero down on something. I pay over 2 grand for a 1 bedroom now but my place is super nice and I’m still not sure if I want to stay down here or move back to the Midwest to be closer to family. I’m laying here with a broken foot/ankle/leg and family had to travel down here to help assist me and once I get out of surgery. It’s a 2 day drive for them to get to me. Yes I could pay a lot less in a mortgage and could sell after 3 years but I just have continued to stay in apartment because like you said, awesome gym etc etc etc. Also I don’t have to worry about lawn maintenance and can be away from here easily for a period of time if needed. I don’t have to worry about property taxes which are always crazy here in SoFLo. No Hurricane insurance (well at least on a house) and we know how insane insurance altogether is on homes down here right now anyway. I’m in my early 40’s and still not married yet and so it has just worked out the way it has. Don’t get me wrong I definitely do want a home of course eventually and had one in Coral Springs in the past, but when my relationship ended with the girlfriend I was with, we sold and I moved back to an apartment. I still don’t know exactly what my future plans are and what I want. Would think at my age I would have everything figured out by now but nope lol. You are still young and you and your friend are better off like you said in the long run, at least for now anyway. 👍🙏
Chelsea I prefer to live in a apartment than a house because I can live on my own!
