    Beautiful! Profound! and beyond inspiring. Gives real meaning to 'life in the blink of an eye' a real message to still find joy in the little things that are pure and true.

    This was utterly wonderful. What a spectacular woman, who didn't let such a life shattering syndrome stop her from living her life to the fullest. Truly inspiring.

      I have come from Ten Types of Human also, a fantastic read. Been researching every single person I read about. A truly amazing text that everybody should read

    I did a Tedx talk last week with my friend Paul who is also locked-in. I just found this video and I am amazed how similar our take home message is: don’t just look and stare at them, see them. Thank you for this wonderful and eloquent talk.

    The first joke, 20 seconds in, I could tell she was thinking

    I agree with her. The only reason to stay alive in such a condition is having one or more children ❤

      Nope. There could be good reasons without offspring.

      That all you can say? Why not say that on a 'right to die' advocacy video then, and just move on from this one without comment? Here it just looks callous and stubborn. You're doing yourself no favours with this comment. Yes, you're entitled to your opinion, and you have the right to freedom to express it, but that doesn't automatically make it the right thing to do anyhow and anywhere. I think such throwaway remarks in reaction to people like her probably signify a low level of emotional intelligence and empathy for that which is different from your own experience of life.
