This video is awesome! I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet and work with you this summer at camp! Yes, your smile is truly amazing and touching!!
God bless you, Melissa, and your wonderful family! I, too, have a little girl about your age with CP. Like you, she has an unbelievable smile and joy about her the affects so many peoples' lives. I do believe that God has big plans for you, as well as my daughter, Madison. I will have to look into this program. I cannot even comprehend being able to communicate with her!
I'm the girl in the body bag under water in the film! =] I just want to say how blessed i feel to be apart of this process. Melissa, you (and people like you) are an inspiration, i feel honored to have been associated with you! I pray that you are doing well and that God will continue you use you, lavish his love on you and shine his light through you!
I had a dear friend like you. You know she was blind, and deaf, and yet we laughed, we joked and had such fun... I have never seen people as disabled only different. Thanfully, today now being myself fully disabled...
I started the world's first NEWS Network for Disabled people... Please take a look and see how we can reach more people... :)
I know my dear friend would be so proud of you. I know I am. :) Awesome!
This was such an inspirational video. I have a disability myself. I am near totally blind, and from time to time, I ask myself why I am blind. But then I see folks like Melissa who depend on such needs as a wheelchair, an ACC device, or any other adaptive to help her with daily tasks that I or other non-disabled persons take for granted.
I also have spastic CP. Same as Melissa's. She is so fortunate to have AAC at such an early age, I had to wait for a while. It makes such a difference to participate in the world. You've done an amazing thing for her! Keep helping us who don't have voices to speak!
I can tell you with absolute certainity that God has a plan for your life that is filled with more power, love, grace, and mercy than you can imagine. He has called you to rely on Him, and in that position, there is nothing more powerful or capable. Seek His will.
This video made me cry. I am a person that has CP too.. But Im blessed in the fact that it only affects my left side. I look at Melisa and people like her that have it much worse than I do yet are ok with that. For a long time I thought God hated me and thats why he let that happened. Give Melissa a hug for me, ok?
I vouleenter my time with children and youth with disabilities, mainly physical for 9 years now! (and I am only 17) They are like Mellissa and each of them and Mellissa are a gift from God!!!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Disabilities are discouraging, certainly. We at Elim are joyful that you see, with us, the truth that God displays His strength in weakness. We encourage you to read from the gospel of John, chpater 9, verses 1 through 3.
This video touches me in a way that its hard to explin. I am person with Spastic CP. This is something that makes me feel so joyful even though God chose not to give us certain abilities, He gave us many others.
I also think your smile is great too Melissa. Keep up the hard work. You are such an inspiration. God loves you and so do I.
