My son has CP. Please click on my page. I am not asking anyone to buy anything. I just need some support for the gift items that I create in my sons name: "JAYLEN". Again...I don't want to sale anything. It would help me on the emotional side just by each of you stopping by our page. Thank You.

[dave2806]

[drbob85]

There is another good video of someone with Cerebral Palsy by Dr. Bob Segalman on Youtube and the title is "Telephone access for AAC users".

[bravenewboi18]

What an inspiring young woman.

[Koyko200]

Way to go Rachel!

[HollyH134]

I really respect Rachel for being such an admirable and strong woman.

I wish her all the happiness, love and luck in the world with her writing and her life.

[holamirandaxo]

Such a nice video. God bless her!

[UglyBetty70]

@FinnishFuturist I thought Melinda was a natural talking to Rachel and would have been a good host for this episode. Melinda was the one with long dark hair(4:35).

[donteatthechalk]

the hostess is talking to her like she's a child...

[2Patricia1]

This is wonderful :) She is so strong

[wcharles622]

wow

[walkingdan]

Life for people with disabilities are not easy. Everything take longer to do. People think my son, Daniel has no IQ, because he could not talk, walk, or do much for himself. And yet, if he is placed in the right equipment, he can overcome his mobility problem. This video is a good example for someone with a higher function. Search4acure do you have any videos or pictures of your neighbor in China?

[search4acure]

My neighbor had cerebral palsy, went to China and is doing great. The treatments there are much safer than the U.S. because of the zero-antigen UCB. A U.S. company did an evaluation and made the arrangements.

Their number is (407) 610-4248

Hi Rachel, thank you so much for posting this clip. My 3yo daughter has severe quadraplegic CP but her speech is perfect just like yours. I worry so much for what the future holds for her sometimes but you've just given me THE best wake up call. Anything is possible. You truly are an inspiration. I will be looking for you book now.

Thank you for making my day!

[oneforever1314]

This is so helpful. I do forensics, and in the skit I am doing, I portray an individual with Cerebral Palsy, and I didn't want to appear to be making fun of, or mocking anybody. Thank you so much for posting it!

[hero22zippy]

i have cerebral palsy,when i was born the doctors said i will never walk talk or crawl but im doing them now,im 24

[NINILUVSJOEJONAS]

I am 16 now the doctors said I would never walk or talk.........i walk with a walker...............this woman is an inspiration I cried, when se talked about god.

[josecitoperecito]

Cerebral palsy, Autism Disorders, down syndrome, blindness, all types of disabilities make these people very special, it hurts me so much when a child is facing any disability, the question is why the children? But is even more difficult to understand why normal people really don't care and make stupid comments. Unreal..

[BerneaseMountainDogs]

this made me cry. i am eleven and my sister has cp she is nine years old i agree with you people who make fun of them cant see inside them to notice what wonderfull people they are. sometimes i get so mad when i am out shopping with my mom and i am pushing annika (my sister) then a group of girls start staring at her with disgusted looks are their face i just stare them down until they look up at me! then their scared. or sometimes i just turn her wheelchair the other way. but she is amazing

[josecitoperecito]

@BerneaseMountainDogs Don't worry, you are not alone, the greatest disability of human being is not CP, Autism, Blindness etc etc, non of the above, the greatest disability is IGNORANCE.

[2Patricia1]

@BerneaseMountainDogs Im very proud of u standing up for ur sister...Keep strong. U seem like a wonderful sister. And even though u might not notice ur sister's gratefulness...I bet she is happy to have a sister like u...Beautiful people like u makes this world a better place. :)

[seralicous]

I am impressed. There are children born with different types of cerebal palsy. some extemely servere some extremely mild. People fail to relise they are very smart some smarter than an able person.

Look at steven hawkins no he doesnt have CP but has a motor disabilty and is wheel chair confined yet this man is so knowledgable about the universe he is awesome for those people who make fun of others you want to thiink again. You could have an accident and end up physically disabled its the truth

[hot4jesus7]

@seralicous this is Rachel from the video and I totally agree with you people need to be educated about people with disabilities act for your comment

[mywJOE]

i cannot believe people have made inappropriate comments on a video like this. she is god's children like everyone else and you shouldn't look down at her.

[MileyJonasBrosfan]

My sister has cerebral palsy and her body movements are uncontrollable... When she was born part of brain was injured and didnt develope so she has to be carried and her head has to be held still...

[hot4jesus7]

this is Rachel. Be encouraged the Lord sees and knows all. He loves your sister just as much as anyone else on this beautiful earth. I will be praying for you and your family. Forgive me for my belated response but I just figured out that it that could actually respond to messages. The Lord has not forgotten your sister and he sees you and the pain you're going through. Just tell that all this is for reason just trust will Lord and you will be all right. Got less you

[kalacaw]

Congratulations to Rachael! It's still a common misconception that this is all about overcoming disability. It's about overcoming society and kudos to her for doing so.

[hot4jesus7]

thank you very much When wonderful words. This is Rachel I totally agree with you it is not the disability the have overcome, but is the opinions of society that needs to change and it is my mission and mandate to do that. Rachel

[kendal36]

OH MY GOSH! THAT IS AWESOME!! GOD ROCKS

[hot4jesus7]

this is Rachel, and he certainly does. He more than rocks he rules

[zenaslaw]

Praise the Lord - Sister Rachel - it was good to see you today worsipping in Church - I saw both videos & was really impressed with all that you through God was able to accomplish - continue on & do great exploits for God - May the Lord Jesus Christ Bless you Abundantly - In Jesus' Name! - Zenaslaw

[Jesufemi1]

Rachel,you are a blessing to this generation.Don't let anybody tell you, you cannot do or achieve anything. Remember with God all things are possible, i mean everything.keep up the good work Rachel. Jesus loves you.

[G0dspelronin]

A very good friend of mine has cerebral palsy and I wish he could even rationalize and express himself the way this blessed lady can. She is an example of how beautiful person can be even in a world where people will judge her as imperfect. I hope she receives exactly what she asks God for.

[Clickcam1]

Rachel's story is truly inspiring. She is the "definition" of the words resilience and perseverance. Her faith in God is her strength and his love for her has allowed her to use the beautiful gifts and talents he has blssed her with. She has the talent to write and the gift to touch the lives of others through her determination and persistence. Beauty definitely resides on the inside and Rachel is truly that, beautiful in all ways. It makes us really reflect on our own lives. Bless you Rachel
