Wat are your happiest time with when and how does he bring joy to your life cause it’s sounds like your so unhappy
My happiest times are when I’m with my son. But you have to take into account I have no freedom outside of working. It is no balance.
Sending you prayers and love cause I know you guys have had a tough journey
This podcast definitely makes you look in the mirror and realize the things you should be grateful for
Love this❤Peace and blessings
I wish we can have a one on one conver I have to understand u a little more like why would u wanna take him out to eat when he can’t eat when he can’t watch a movie
I know u said u would rather have him her but what kind of life is he living I feel it’s not fair to him he not happy living like this and I don’t want him to die but I thought with the stem cells treatment I thought his health would improve but this is not a life for him or u I’m sorry I just feel so sad
We can’t say because he can’t live like everyone eye he isn’t happy. If he wanted to die he wouldn’t fight to live. When he is sleeping and being held and loved he looks content as ever. His life is simple and I believe in my heart he is happy as long as he is being taken care of and loved.
💯💯on this one bro, I hear ya
All fathers should do what you are doing for your son but not all daddies would
Cousin im so proud of you. I love you guys so much. Im so proud of you
Obviously your life has changed drastically but you have embraced and dedicated yourself to being an awesome dad. Anyone that can’t see that or has negative comments let it roll off and continue doing what you’re doing. May the Lord bless you and your family
I’m so proud of u E
My little HIE starting smiling and making noise as soon as I started the podcast! 🙏❤️
Much love to you and your baby <3 Thank you for watching!
Your disclaimer in the beginning - I can’t even hear the sounds because I have the same ones going on in my home. 🤍 big love dad! Thanks for sharing
You go deaf to it after so long lol it's nice to hear I ain't the only one that can relate to it. It's almost comforting at this point lol. <3
Hi Elgin! Congrats on starting this podcast. You and I started chatting in a brain injury group earlier. My little girl was severely brain-injured and became bedridden back when she was just 8 months old. She’s 10 now. This is your life so I celebrate your authenticity and openness. I celebrate you showing up just as you are and showing your son just as he is! Sending love and holding space for the well-being of your son and you also.
Thank you so much, sharing that gave me a huge boost in hope for my sons future. You have been down this road for a LONG time I can only hope to withstand like you have. Much love to you and your family and thank you for supporting us. We love yall, seriously.
My Guy! 💪🏾💪🏾
All love bro, Thank you for the support.
I have been following you for years and I think you are doing an amazing job raising your son. I am happy that you are doing the podcast and letting people know how are you dishonor doing. You mentioned the fact that you have been putting off seeking help mentally for yourself. Please! please! take care of yourself also both mentally and physically. He needs you and you can’t be there for him if you don’t take care of yourself. I always keep you and Elgin in prayer and I will continue to do so.
Thank you so much Nevie I remember you. From Day One. Much love to you. I will get that help. You'll be able to see the change in me as I start to figure out how to deal with these things. They only get better from here. Thank you for your support again. <3
I cried watching you are so strong keep praying He answers all prayers
Thank you so much <3 we gone be iight!!
💪🏾💪🏾
My brotha for LIFE
You’re an inspiration mate and I can relate to literally everything you’re saying. My son Seth is 7 years old and is severely brain damaged - has cerebral palsy, fed through a Peg, can’t walk, talk but he is my whole world. I can’t begin to imagine how hard it must be for you - my son Seth is disabled but not as severe as your son. I’ve subscribed to your channel and will follow and share your podcast Elgin. Stay strong brother and big up to all those dads out there that dedicate their whole lives to there little super heroes! xx
Man, this means a lot to me. I haven't run into many dads who can relate, and I hate that there is dads who can relate because the situation is so hard but it's nice to know that I am not alone in it. Your support means everything to me man it really does and I'm sending nothing but love to you, Seth and your family. Add me on IG or something man. I'd love to chop it up sometime. - Bo
You got this brotha, if you couldn’t withhold the mission wouldn’t be yours.
These are facts bro. Thank you for that. Much love!
Great Job SON and GBABY !!! Love yall !!
Thank you mama, I needed that and I love you!
There are no words to describe how proud of you I am. I love y’all so much and yes you should already know I cried watching this.
I love you cousin, Thank you for watching and I figured you would lol it don't take much to get you goin lol. It was good to see you and thank you again for checking it out. We got this <3
Hey Elgin, I’m so glad to see you doing this. I’ve been following your story since the beginning and I must say God is amazing!!! You have been a rock from the beginning and I can’t believe how big E3 has gotten. Continued prayers to you and your family.
Thank you Cherry, I love to hear from the day ones! You know this has been hard on all of us over here and I appreciate your support. Yall been keeping me goin <3
Liked! Commenting…. & SUBSCRIBED my brotha! Big ups for making the vids. I am a fellow father to a special needs son. My boy Mateo is 4 years old with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. He suffered a TBI (traumatic brain injury) at birth via emergency C-Section. He is also tube fed and has a global developmental delay. You are an amazing human and your son is a real life superhero. I’m on the same road as you, just a different lane. Big ups from the Midwest! We’re about 20 miles west of Chicago.
Man Mike I can't tell you how much I appreciate you watching man really. I haven't came across too many dads in a similar situation. I hate to see another father go through something so traumatic but it is comforting knowing I'm not alone in the struggle. Sounds like it's a really similar situation I followed you back on IG I'd love to see some pictures of you and your boy. Im'a hit you in the inbox so we can chop it up. Thanks again for the support man it means a lot. - All love from KC
Honestly as horrible as it sounds, I worry more about what will happen if I go before my son. I know in my heart no one will make the sacrifices and take care of him the way I do. What keeps me up at night is what happens to him without me. We do have home nurses but all the mentioned is the issue with nursing and not all of them care, for some it’s just a job. I used to have the dreams too, my son is now 15 and I haven’t had them for several years but I remember the reality of waking up.
It may be selfish for me to want to say I want to go before my son, but after burying my daughter I just don't think I could handle it again. In an ideal world we would leave this earth together but its highly unlikely. I just would hate to think what I would become after losing him. I don't think I could be of any use to this world after. I hate thinking about it but it really does plague your thoughts sometimes. I hope I age out of the dreams though. They are the WORST.
@@et3network837 I just finished your third podcast and I’m not going to try to pretend to know the pain of losing a child but I can say I understand where you are coming from and it’s not selfish at all. ETA you never know your impact on a person, I’ve been listening to your pod cast and I have to say they’ve been immensely cathartic knowing that throughout the years I’m not the only one silently dying inside at a birthday party or holiday putting on a happy face. Love the podcast and hope you keep it going. Wish I had had the courage to get my thoughts out like this instead of holding everything in all these years.
@@meiaraboteau7662 Add me on FB or IG we can always just talk, I'll listen, I don't know your exact situation but I am sure I can relate on some level. I'm glad anybody is getting anything from these. and I appreciate the support forever. Nothing but love to you and your family. - Bo
I've Been Waiting For You To Do This He Is So Big I Remember When He Was Born
Thank you so much for watching Audrey, I remember you predicted the exact day he would open his eyes!
Very inspirational. Blessings to you and your family brother
Thank you so much man, I appreciate you
