Yes exactly! Kevin you could do one vlog that is shorter more casual like gaming or any other of your hobbies or just saying how your weeks been, and one video that you put a bit more time and effort to. See what feels good for you and post less frequent if starts to feel too stressful. Different people work in different paces and in the beginning theres a lot to process as you are still learning.
Don't worry Kevin, my first night at college I was so emotional I cried when I saw my parents drive away. For the first time, I was alone in the world and that's scary. But, then I made friends and got a routine and ended up loving it :) Now I have 2 kids in college and their experience was pretty similar to mine
I wish I was close enough with my family to feel that way. I was so happy to be moving out & have been home maybe like 5 times since 2019. Still working and paying for my associates degree 4 years later lol
I don’t have ACC, but I fell off a cliff and my brain injury was mostly to the corpus callosum. This is really cool to learn about, because finally some things are starting to make sense! Like the fact I can have a long conversation with someone and I remember every detail of what we talked about, but I can’t remember their name! 😅
Kevin, I kept a toy in my pocket every day in school to help me focus and relieve stress. Now I sell collectible toys as my profession. Best decision I ever made. My favorite youtubers just show their toy collections and teach about collectable items. Very cool.
My 4yo has a thin corpus collosum. Medical advice was - eh, we don't know how it will impact her. Thank you for showing me that full and enjoyable lives are absolutely possible. Thank you
I'm glad you found this video. Also four year olds are my favorite age to work with (I work in childcare for a living). Your daughter is going to thrive. ❤️
Kevin i think you're gonna do amazing. Like chris said the only thing that might get in your way is focus but that can be worked on. I have focus issues with my disabilities as well. I'm also prone to seizures not for the same reason but i can still have them at any time and it's scary. But we are all here to support you and help you be the best you can be. And don't worry if you can't upload every single day even pewdiepie takes a few days off sometimes and that's ok.I've been told by many people including doctors that i show signs of adhd so i think soon I'm gonna get tested to see if i have it. Because it would explain alot. I can switch from 1 subject to the next to the next ect ect and do it for hours i think it's annoying i hate it but nothing i can do really. That's why some of my so called friends abandoned me. They didn't want to deal with that. But anyways I'm bipolar with bpd borderline personality disorder,i also have anxiety/panic disorder,signs of adhd,ptsd,ocd ect and it's hard sometimes cuz people want to make fun of me or say mean things laugh or stare or just flat out not want anything to do with me and it hurts but i try to forget about it and deal with it best i can.I'm 44 but have the mind of a 16 yr old at times i also love video games singing(i love music it's one of my fav things to do besides play video games. But this is long enough just wanted to say I support you in whatever you decide to do. I'm proud of you for doing this and with the help of chris you're gonna go far i can feel it. You could go far without him as well but with him guiding you it's a great experience and you're gonna learn alot and have fun doing it. I wish you nothing but success in everything you do. Take it slow 1 day at a time and the possibilities are endless. Kind of reminds me of my son whos 20 now(don't know why but it does)again sorry for the long comment. Throwing all the love and support your way. Oh p.s. oscar is pretty cool i like his hoodie. Also to clarify what i said about having the mind of a 16 yr old being 44 it's part of my disability that people constantly make fun of me for but i deal with it the best way i can. Can't wait to see all the things life has to offer you. And watching your channel blossom and change is going to be an awesome experience and journey to go on with you. Everything said in this comment is said out of kindness support and just rooting for ya. You got this we believe in you. And chris is a wonderful guy so happy he's helping you do this👍👍
Heather, I know how hard it is to pretend that it doesn’t hurt when people behave like jerks, but it does hurt! I guess you have figured out some strategies on how to deal with it. I just try to be kind in spite of their behavior and turn to music to keep me happy! I mean, listen to music as I don’t have any musical skills😊
I'm just some random commenter, but I believe in you Kevin. I know alot of other people here on the web do too. Chris helping you set up this channel is an amazing gesture, and it could genuinely change your life if you stick with it. Please don't give up on this dream and make sure to pace yourself. Work smart. Make sure the videos are something you actually want to put time into. YOU'VE GOT THIS!
Kevin! Great job on the channel so far. Keep up the good work. Don't burn yourself out with to many videos, take your time and keep on creating. You will do well for yourself! Chris is a pretty amazing guy and its nice to see him help you get a good start. Looking forward to more videos.
Kevin, I would like to know what your daily schedule is like. Do you live alone or have a roommate? Are you a morning person? I was wondering if you can drive a car. My godson who is autistic can’t drive because he can’t focus and react quickly to what is going on around him on the road. But now that you have seizures that makes it unsafe to drive. Even though I don’t have a brain disability I’m old and need to write things down in a datebook to remember what I plan to do each day. Do you have to do that? I am looking forward to your video on using a metal detector. What got you interested in it? Where do you do it? Have you found interesting things?
My favorite line : what do you think of this stuffed animal? "It's definitely high quality". 😂 When I saw it I was like that's the best looking thing anyone's won from an arcade
Wow. As a RN, I’m completely amazed and happy at the same time. Kevin, you come across very intelligent and a lovely person. Here’s to you and your journey in this life.
Hey Kevin. Seizures absolutely SUCK. I hate waking up and being sore and not even remembering why. The onset is super scary as well, when your face locks up.
Great to hear Kevin talking himself about his disability. He shows everyone that having disability doesn't mean life is not good. I love seeing him so strong and determined to live his life the way he wants👍💗. Great job Kevin ! You're awesome !!!👌👏💗
Hi Kevin, I hope you are getting great pointers from Chris. He’s an awesome person, and has done so much for people with all sorts of disabilities. I understand you get tired. Many of us taking certain medications do this too. I’m wondering how you feel about planning to do your videos when you know you’ll feel more awake? I love the idea of seeing your trailer. This will be so cool. Do you know if your school may be willing to let you interview those teaching, and students who are interested in being on camera? I know many of us are not aware of these colleges that teach people with disabilities. You have so much to show, and teach us. I will be watching
SUGGESTION KEVIN I watch a lot of RUclips because I have a disability where I'm in bed all the time and that sucks because I'm exhausted and I can't go outside it's just really hard. As I was watching this video I wanted to share something with you that I think will really make your videos much better and more engaging for the viewer. When Chris was asking you questions your answers were very short. And I think what you need to do is elaborate more, don't think you're boring people you're not boring people. People like to know a lot about what it feels like to be you the things that you go through because of your disability not just saying oh I had a seizure and it sucks. That's not enough information to create interest. So when you're going to share something never think it's too small or unimportant, and get into the details of it tell as much as you can about what it's like to do a certain activity with your disability let's say. or if you're involved in something beside talking about your disability get into talking about it really get into it. That to me makes an interesting content creator. So that's my suggestion don't keep your answers short keep them long and interesting by sharing as much as you can from your personal point of view. I hope you get a chance to read this and I'm really excited to see where you can take your Channel.
I just found out after 37 years that i have this as well. Ive lived a normal life. I had trouble in school but nothing to crazy. I am kind of emotionless at times and not very humorous and dont get things right away. Thank you for putting these videos out there. I found out about these cause i was overworking my brain at work and it was causing sezuirs.
So glad that you are mentoring this entertaining fellow, Chris! It's always interesting to take a peak into the lives of others. It breaks down barriers, and makes us more understanding and sympathetic. 💙👍
Hi Kevin! Your eye contact with the camera has already improved amazingly! You have nice eyes, a great smile, and a good sense of humor. I’m excited about your new channel and look forward to seeing your videos.
I think you're going to do great with your channel. Make videos about stuff that your passionate about. I know what it's like growing up with a rare disease. Because I have 3. By talking about the condition you have with your viewers on your channel you are educating them in the process. You are a strong young man. Never let your condition stop you from being who you want to be. You are surrounded by wonderful people in your life from family and friends who are always there for you and cheering you on. Keep smiling.
I like how Oscar feels real to you but you also know Mr Chris is making the voice. I guess that would be like knowing how a magic trick works but still being able to see the illusion.
The story about Oscar was really cool. It was very interesting Kevin 👍 And I liked you talking about your experience of the first night in college and about going to the arcade
Thank you for introducing us to Oscar… I’m sure we will see him maybe as your background or making guest appearances…😄I’m looking forward your next Video
Kevin your a Super Hero Your amazing and I believe in you. I became disabled after joining the US Army it’s so good to see a young man like you take charge of your life and Kevin I’ve seen tough people in my 63 yrs but my Good Sir you are Army Tough. Im now a subscriber and I will watch every chance I can. Now Kevin might I suggest that you leave the hot stuff alone stick to oysters! There are some historical places near you and you could share those. Im in Colorado I live in Pueblo which is in the desert but I’m surrounded by mountains. Get busy make more video’s
It's extraordinary that you have essentially two distinct brains. Is your self awareness expressed from your left hemisphere or the right since they can't communicate to each other? I am fascinated how this may affect your consciousness and perception in general.
I have learned that playing music will develop the neurons to connect both sides if the brain. Evern if you do the exercises with your fingers develops this.
Also I am really interested about what school is like for you! Maybe you could ask if one of your teachers would like to talk about it on video or you could show us yourself.
Thank you Kevin for speaking about disability not really recognized. I too have Angenis of the corpus collasum. The part of brain is extremely thin. It hard someday or harder then others days. It affects my core my eyes my ears my heart and feet. I go through day to day with struggle. I struggle in school a lot. Mainly I have a normal life but with hiccups
Congrats on your channel Kevin! You are a great young man and I know you're gonna do some good things in your life. You already have almost 19,000 subs, in just a couple days!! How awesome 👏🎉🙂
You have such a sweet heart, Kevin. Thank you for helping us to understand what it’s like for you. We’re all different, and that’s what makes our lives interesting. ❤
I've been enjoying these videos by Kevin! Each one has been nice to watch in a different way because each one is a different topic or theme. From tasting hot sauces to educating on a disability! Nice to meet Oscar too who I think may be a sloth.🙂
so, first of all, was waiting for this one! but i have a question, i heard somewhere that people who are missing the middle part are the only ones that can make a circle with the right(or left) hand, and a square with the left(or the right)hand at the same time... i think i heard that at some seminar about the brain in general. supercurious if you can do that also lol. weird question, but curiosity cannot be contained imoXD
I have epilepsy and it seems to me that seizures can vary and how people remember them can as well. I have had numerous partial seizures throughout my life where I'm conscious and it's the most bizarre and uncomfortable feeling, but I've also had tonic clonic seizures where I don't remember a thing!
I’m so sorry to hear about your friend Kevin. I just wanted to reassure you that it does get easier to cope with as time passes, and although you will always think of and miss your friend, you will be able to think of them and remember happy memories instead of feeling sad. You’re doing a fantastic job getting this channel up and running, finding your voice as a youtuber and helping the world to understand you and you disability. So excited to see where this journey takes you!! 💗👏🏼😄
You did so good! :) Looking a lot into the camera, trying to keep focus on one subject, very good start for you :) Its also interesting to hear about yourself and your disibility. Take care!
Thank you for sharing about your disability (special ability!) and letting the world know what it’s like to be you. This is so important. We see you. ❤
One interesting thing is when the disability is all you've ever known, it's really difficult to gauge it as compared to normies because there IS no other normal for you. My eye has always been 20/400. I don't know what seeing out of two eyes feels like or how blind I am on a granular level as compared to eye-havers. I see people driving and can extrapolate "a whole damn lot" but nothing else aside from that.
I never thought about that but you’re absolutely right. May I ask if you have dreams when you sleep (my husband says he doesn’t)? If so what are they like?
@@mayneeyuh8713 Exactly like when I'm awake. Exactly as blurry around the edges and in the distance. Mostly sound and smell. But I'd imagine if you had vision and lost it, you'd see in your dreams because it's something your brain has already cottoned on to.
New subscriber here :):). It's interesting to hear both of your perspectives and learn more about your disability and life with it. Also looking over past videos it's cool to see Kevins grown up. I wish you the best of luck with your channel. Don't feel pressured to post videos, so long as it's fun for you and you are happy with it, that's what matters.
I agree with Chris in that it's very important to post regularly. One of the reasons why it's important to post regularly is so that your subscribers will remember to check in with you, and they'll think "I haven't seen Kevin in a while! Let me go check his channel!" if RUclips didn't let them know that you uploaded. (That happens sometimes!) Sometimes RUclipsrs get overwhelmed when they have to upload regularly. It's OK to take breaks! One strategy that you can also use is to record some videos, but don't post them all at once. If you space it out, you'll have time to rest but also still have content to post on your RUclips channel at the same time. 😉 Best of wishes, Kevin!
Kevin, I loved how when you were passing such important information as the seizures you looked straight into the camera, that really emphasised your point. You are clearly a very loving man and I hope you are proud to be you!
I have ACC and it’s very hard I get very emotional with every emotion!! I have wanted to meet Chris from SPSK so bad!! I also have other disability to.
Hi Kevin, I just found this video and just finished watching it. I thought it was really interesting what you had to say about your disability, and what you explained about it. Thanks for sharing that with us. Also, I enjoyed watching you interact with the puppet, and watching Chris do the voice for it. I think you’re going to do really well with what you’re doing on your channel, as well as I think you’ll do really well going through your life, and you have my support. Again, thanks for sharing what you did in this video, and I look forward to checking out more of what you post here.
Kevin - Today's world consists of a highly refined, over processed, modified, and edited array of "content". To me, when I think of the word content, I think of the feeling I get when I am happy. Not a product, not the RUclips version of "content". I think appreciating people is more than looking for clickbait videos or being highly entertained. I think some of the greatest joys and pleasures in life are getting to know people. The greatest treasure we have as a people is relationship. People of all capabilities, disabilities, and differently abled abilities can build relationships. I think it's interesting getting to know people of all abilities and backgrounds, and I can genuinely say I will enjoy your content no matter what you post! Focused or not :-) I have been following special books by special kids for years and I am also on the list awaiting an interview with Chris someday for my son who has a rare condition to spread awareness for him! Its called Sinus Pericranii. Anyway, I think it's just interesting learning about different disabilities and conditions, we are all people and we all love ❤️ everybody has issues, some people are just better at hiding them. Even the most appearingly put together people you've ever seen, have issues under the surface. I myself have Focus issues all the time even though I am a clinically ordinary person. You have a wonderful personality and you are a great friend to have. I immediately subscribe to you and I will continue to follow your content! Chris, thanks for starting Kevin on this journey I think it will be great for him and I will continue to follow Chris and Alyssa on their journey as always! The world needs more PEOPLE LIKE YOU! Love is the answer. Just keep being yourself and post whatever you want! You have a great group of followers already who appreciate you as you are.
Hi Kevin, I really appreciate when you give information for parents and people living with ACC. I never heard of it before I saw your videos, but you're really good at teaching and sharing information about it. I get the feeling you would be great at helping families and kids!! I'm looking forward to more videos! Also, seizures are scary. My niece's mom has epilepsy and my brother has had seizures from head injuries. Thank you for talking about your experience.
I have seizures at age 12 and all through school and you are right, that are scary and I was 22 before I stopped having them. But could not do what I wanted, but ended up in the medical field as an assistant so focus was necessary and now I really liked it. I learned to do things under a doctors supervision and then passed the test for a license. Now I am retired, 71 years old still. Take my seizure medication and live by myself. I enjoy your videos. Can’t wait to see more when you can do them.
My 3mo old son has complete ACC along with a few other brain abnormalities and rare diseases and I’d love to have a conversation with you about what the best way will be for me to be as compassionate as I can. How do you want people to treat you? Would you rather someone always be there to help or do things independently even if they may take longer?
Hi Kevin, I am from India....... It makes me so happy that you're working on this RUclips channel. It makes me so happy that you're doing so well... I wish you always keep doing better like this, both on your channel and life. Chris is such an amazing person. May God keep him always healthy, wealthy, happy and safe.... All the best for future. May God be with you all along this journey.... Lots of love...
Maybe you could make a video on what to do if someone around you has a seizure or what you would want people to do if they were with you when you have one. I think it’s one of those things most of us don’t think about until it happens.
Dont feel obligated to post daily if you think you are gonna burn out. Even one or two videos a week is great!
Yes exactly! Kevin you could do one vlog that is shorter more casual like gaming or any other of your hobbies or just saying how your weeks been, and one video that you put a bit more time and effort to. See what feels good for you and post less frequent if starts to feel too stressful. Different people work in different paces and in the beginning theres a lot to process as you are still learning.
This. I'd say posting a video every 3 days is more than enough. It also helps you come up with ideas for new videos.
Yes ✌👏💜💜💜💜💜
Chris said once a week is good.
No one I subscribe to do it daily. 2-3 times a week is a lot. Be careful with yourself.
Great video Kevin! See you next week when you control my life for 24 hours 😭
Yeah sorry Chris but good luck haha
Now that will definitely be worth watching. ..
So exciting!!
Lol this will be ridiculous 🤣 I hope it involves hot sauce again and maybe Oscar getting sassy 🤣🤣🤣
Didn’t take long at all! 😂
Don't worry Kevin, my first night at college I was so emotional I cried when I saw my parents drive away. For the first time, I was alone in the world and that's scary. But, then I made friends and got a routine and ended up loving it :) Now I have 2 kids in college and their experience was pretty similar to mine

Your doing a great job Kevin. This video was informative and entertaining. 😊
Thanks
So interesting! Good job Kevin! You also made me laugh several times. Thanks for brightening my day ☀️
No problem
I don’t have ACC, but I fell off a cliff and my brain injury was mostly to the corpus callosum. This is really cool to learn about, because finally some things are starting to make sense! Like the fact I can have a long conversation with someone and I remember every detail of what we talked about, but I can’t remember their name! 😅
That's so interesting, thank you for explaining that, Abby.
I can never remember peoples names either. Birthdays are really difficult too. I wonder why it is.
Kevin, I kept a toy in my pocket every day in school to help me focus and relieve stress. Now I sell collectible toys as my profession. Best decision I ever made. My favorite youtubers just show their toy collections and teach about collectable items. Very cool.
The topic of unique brains is so cool. Thank you for sharing your life with us Kevin.
I'm living for your clickbait format titles. You're already a profesional youtuber. I'm so proud.🥺
THE TRUTH
My 4yo has a thin corpus collosum. Medical advice was - eh, we don't know how it will impact her.
Thank you for showing me that full and enjoyable lives are absolutely possible.
Thank you
I'm glad you found this video. Also four year olds are my favorite age to work with (I work in childcare for a living). Your daughter is going to thrive. ❤️

Lmbo! I have adhd, and a lot of this sounds like me. This huge wall of text, I know her well 😊😆
Love the new channel, Michael!
I can see that your attitude is great 👍🏼. Kevin you’re going to go places😎. Looking forward to getting to know you better.
I'm from NJ but live paducah ky, love your energy in the videos so far. Can't wait to see more
I'm just some random commenter, but I believe in you Kevin. I know alot of other people here on the web do too.

WOOO Kevin so great to hear about your disability!
Kevin is an alpha male hyperpolyglot gigachad
Kevin! Great job on the channel so far. Keep up the good work. Don't burn yourself out with to many videos, take your time and keep on creating. You will do well for yourself! Chris is a pretty amazing guy and its nice to see him help you get a good start. Looking forward to more videos.
I learned a lot about ACC in this video! Thank you Kevin! I also liked how Chris said that simply living your life is advocacy.
Kevin, I would like to know what your daily schedule is like. Do you live alone or have a roommate? Are you a morning person? I was wondering if you can drive a car. My godson who is autistic can’t drive because he can’t focus and react quickly to what is going on around him on the road. But now that you have seizures that makes it unsafe to drive.
Even though I don’t have a brain disability I’m old and need to write things down in a datebook to remember what I plan to do each day. Do you have to do that?
I am looking forward to your video on using a metal detector. What got you interested in it? Where do you do it? Have you found interesting things?
My favorite line : what do you think of this stuffed animal? "It's definitely high quality". 😂 When I saw it I was like that's the best looking thing anyone's won from an arcade
Come on algorithm do your thing
Wow. As a RN, I’m completely amazed and happy at the same time. Kevin, you come across very intelligent and a lovely person. Here’s to you and your journey in this life.

I hope we get to see more of Oscar in future videos! Also doing an RV tour would be awesome! I've always wondered what it's like 😁

Hi Kevin I totally understand about your seizures feeling. I have seizure disorder since childhood. I really like this video kev! ❤❤❤
Great information, Kevin, about your disability! Thank you for explaining about it! (Hi Oscar!)
Thanks for telling us about your story Kevin. It's not easy to be open with people and you did a great job.
I just found out after 37 years that i have this as well. Ive lived a normal life. I had trouble in school but nothing to crazy. I am kind of emotionless at times and not very humorous and dont get things right away. Thank you for putting these videos out there. I found out about these cause i was overworking my brain at work and it was causing sezuirs.
So glad that you are mentoring this entertaining fellow, Chris! It's always interesting to take a peak into the lives of others. It breaks down barriers, and makes us more understanding and sympathetic. 💙👍
My boyfriend has epilepsy and it's so true, he was mid conversation talking to a shop teller once and just went silent, blank and dropped.
I never knew there were dedicated university/colleges aimed at disabled students. That's so awesome.
- Oscar, are you cold?
- Are you waiting for me to say something?
- YES.
😆
Hi Kevin! Your eye contact with the camera has already improved amazingly! You have nice eyes, a great smile, and a good sense of humor. I’m excited about your new channel and look forward to seeing your videos.
Im looking forward for your next video buddy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Kevin, you explain things so well. I'm glad you are happy. Your videos are making me happy too
I think you're going to do great with your channel. Make videos about stuff that your passionate about. I know what it's like growing up with a rare disease. Because I have 3. By talking about the condition you have with your viewers on your channel you are educating them in the process. You are a strong young man. Never let your condition stop you from being who you want to be. You are surrounded by wonderful people in your life from family and friends who are always there for you and cheering you on. Keep smiling.
This channel is getting more and more interesting. I think something huge starts here.
Oscar is such a good name!
I like how Oscar feels real to you but you also know Mr Chris is making the voice. I guess that would be like knowing how a magic trick works but still being able to see the illusion.
Kevin, I'm disabled, too. I think you are totally awesome 👌. I like your content. Keep it up.
I have ACC also and it’s interesting to hear about someone else’s experience. You’re doing a great job with your channel.
The story about Oscar was really cool. It was very interesting Kevin 👍
And I liked you talking about your experience of the first night in college and about going to the arcade
Thank you for introducing us to Oscar… I’m sure we will see him maybe as your background or making guest appearances…😄I’m looking forward your next Video
Kevin your a Super Hero Your amazing and I believe in you. I became disabled after joining the US Army it’s so good to see a young man like you take charge of your life and Kevin I’ve seen tough people in my 63 yrs but my Good Sir you are Army Tough. Im now a subscriber and I will watch every chance I can. Now Kevin might I suggest that you leave the hot stuff alone stick to oysters! There are some historical places near you and you could share those. Im in Colorado I live in Pueblo which is in the desert but I’m surrounded by mountains. Get busy make more video’s
It's extraordinary that you have essentially two distinct brains. Is your self awareness expressed from your left hemisphere or the right since they can't communicate to each other? I am fascinated how this may affect your consciousness and perception in general.
I'd love an RV tour and to see how you deal with things day to day whilst living in one!
Hi Kevin! Greetings from faraway country, Finland!
Sorry for 3 comments in a row but that look of pride Chris gave you at the end warmed my heart.
Hi Kevin don't worry you can do it God bless you 🙏 💖 I'm from Philippines 🇵🇭
I have learned that playing music will develop the neurons to connect both sides if the brain. Evern if you do the exercises with your fingers develops this.
I think Chris has a great idea! I would love to see content with you and your mother!
Verry interesting video. Great job Kevin! (And Chris!) ✨✨✨
Also I am really interested about what school is like for you! Maybe you could ask if one of your teachers would like to talk about it on video or you could show us yourself.
My son is 15 years old and shares the same disability as you he has no (acc). I look faward to seeing you in your next video. Takecare xx
Idea time: Kev does a minecraft lets play series (I'm a new subscriber by the way
Very good that you dont feel ahamed or bad of showing you disability to the world, your channel is going to be the best Kevin, keep it up!!!!!!
Thank you Kevin for speaking about disability not really recognized. I too have Angenis of the corpus collasum. The part of brain is extremely thin. It hard someday or harder then others days. It affects my core my eyes my ears my heart and feet. I go through day to day with struggle. I struggle in school a lot. Mainly I have a normal life but with hiccups
It's so cool to meet Oscar! See ya on the flip side Kevin
Congrats on your channel Kevin! You are a great young man and I know you're gonna do some good things in your life. You already have almost 19,000 subs, in just a couple days!! How awesome 👏🎉🙂
You have such a sweet heart, Kevin. Thank you for helping us to understand what it’s like for you. We’re all different, and that’s what makes our lives interesting. ❤
Thank you for this video. Great job ❤️
I've been enjoying these videos by Kevin! Each one has been nice to watch in a different way because each one is a different topic or theme. From tasting hot sauces to educating on a disability! Nice to meet Oscar too who I think may be a sloth.🙂
Awww, the puppet is so cute.
Funny and interesting. Well done.
Keep up the good work Kevin!
Thanks for the opportunity to learn more about being open and enjoying the little things, Kevin.
so, first of all, was waiting for this one! but i have a question, i heard somewhere that people who are missing the middle part are the only ones that can make a circle with the right(or left) hand, and a square with the left(or the right)hand at the same time... i think i heard that at some seminar about the brain in general. supercurious if you can do that also lol. weird question, but curiosity cannot be contained imoXD
but besides the weird question, really loving the openness with explaining the emotions that come with it.
I had no idea thanks for the information
I have epilepsy and it seems to me that seizures can vary and how people remember them can as well. I have had numerous partial seizures throughout my life where I'm conscious and it's the most bizarre and uncomfortable feeling, but I've also had tonic clonic seizures where I don't remember a thing!
I’m so sorry to hear about your friend Kevin. I just wanted to reassure you that it does get easier to cope with as time passes, and although you will always think of and miss your friend, you will be able to think of them and remember happy memories instead of feeling sad.
You’re doing a fantastic job getting this channel up and running, finding your voice as a youtuber and helping the world to understand you and you disability. So excited to see where this journey takes you!! 💗👏🏼😄
Ps. I really like Oscar, you’re very funny when you talk to him! 😂
You did so good! :) Looking a lot into the camera, trying to keep focus on one subject, very good start for you :) Its also interesting to hear about yourself and your disibility. Take care!
Thank you for sharing about your disability (special ability!) and letting the world know what it’s like to be you. This is so important. We see you. ❤
"Oscar. Hang in there with me bud." 🤣
You're gonna do amazing! I can relate about losing a loved one. I'm autistic, so I feel my emotions differently, too. You're lightning fast dude
One interesting thing is when the disability is all you've ever known, it's really difficult to gauge it as compared to normies because there IS no other normal for you. My eye has always been 20/400. I don't know what seeing out of two eyes feels like or how blind I am on a granular level as compared to eye-havers. I see people driving and can extrapolate "a whole damn lot" but nothing else aside from that.
I never thought about that but you’re absolutely right. May I ask if you have dreams when you sleep (my husband says he doesn’t)? If so what are they like?
@@mayneeyuh8713 Exactly like when I'm awake. Exactly as blurry around the edges and in the distance. Mostly sound and smell. But I'd imagine if you had vision and lost it, you'd see in your dreams because it's something your brain has already cottoned on to.
New subscriber here :):). It's interesting to hear both of your perspectives and learn more about your disability and life with it.
Also looking over past videos it's cool to see Kevins grown up.
I wish you the best of luck with your channel. Don't feel pressured to post videos, so long as it's fun for you and you are happy with it, that's what matters.
I agree with Chris in that it's very important to post regularly. One of the reasons why it's important to post regularly is so that your subscribers will remember to check in with you, and they'll think "I haven't seen Kevin in a while! Let me go check his channel!" if RUclips didn't let them know that you uploaded. (That happens sometimes!) Sometimes RUclipsrs get overwhelmed when they have to upload regularly. It's OK to take breaks! One strategy that you can also use is to record some videos, but don't post them all at once. If you space it out, you'll have time to rest but also still have content to post on your RUclips channel at the same time. 😉 Best of wishes, Kevin!
Kevin, I loved how when you were passing such important information as the seizures you looked straight into the camera, that really emphasised your point. You are clearly a very loving man and I hope you are proud to be you!
Doing an amazing job! Oscar is truly adorable and looks like an excellent friend. Please give him a hug for me.
I have ACC and it’s very hard I get very emotional with every emotion!! I have wanted to meet Chris from SPSK so bad!! I also have other disability to.
Good job Kevin! stay focused!
Kevin I love your screen presence, these vids are great!
Hi Kevin, I just found this video and just finished watching it. I thought it was really interesting what you had to say about your disability, and what you explained about it. Thanks for sharing that with us.
Also, I enjoyed watching you interact with the puppet, and watching Chris do the voice for it. I think you’re going to do really well with what you’re doing on your channel, as well as I think you’ll do really well going through your life, and you have my support.
Again, thanks for sharing what you did in this video, and I look forward to checking out more of what you post here.
That was awesome, thanks for all the information. My kids love when I talk through puppets. I enjoy it too.
I talk to stuffed animals like they are real too! 😊
Thanks a lot for this explanation. It's *a lot* more useful when it is explained first-person!
Thanks for sharing so much with us. Take care of yourself, Kevin! You deserve it.
keep it up, bud, loving your channel!
the both of you are an awesome team..oh, Oscar too!! :)
Kevin -
Today's world consists of a highly refined, over processed, modified, and edited array of "content". To me, when I think of the word content, I think of the feeling I get when I am happy. Not a product, not the RUclips version of "content".
I think appreciating people is more than looking for clickbait videos or being highly entertained. I think some of the greatest joys and pleasures in life are getting to know people. The greatest treasure we have as a people is relationship. People of all capabilities, disabilities, and differently abled abilities can build relationships. I think it's interesting getting to know people of all abilities and backgrounds, and I can genuinely say I will enjoy your content no matter what you post! Focused or not :-) I have been following special books by special kids for years and I am also on the list awaiting an interview with Chris someday for my son who has a rare condition to spread awareness for him! Its called Sinus Pericranii. Anyway,
I think it's just interesting learning about different disabilities and conditions, we are all people and we all love ❤️ everybody has issues, some people are just better at hiding them. Even the most appearingly put together people you've ever seen, have issues under the surface. I myself have Focus issues all the time even though I am a clinically ordinary person.
You have a wonderful personality and you are a great friend to have. I immediately subscribe to you and I will continue to follow your content! Chris, thanks for starting Kevin on this journey I think it will be great for him and I will continue to follow Chris and Alyssa on their journey as always! The world needs more PEOPLE LIKE YOU! Love is the answer.
Just keep being yourself and post whatever you want! You have a great group of followers already who appreciate you as you are.
Great insight, Kevin-everyone with a disability does experience it differently. 👍🏻
Hi Kevin, I really appreciate when you give information for parents and people living with ACC. I never heard of it before I saw your videos, but you're really good at teaching and sharing information about it. I get the feeling you would be great at helping families and kids!! I'm looking forward to more videos!
Also, seizures are scary. My niece's mom has epilepsy and my brother has had seizures from head injuries. Thank you for talking about your experience.
I have seizures at age 12 and all through school and you are right, that are scary and I was 22 before I stopped having them. But could not do what I wanted, but ended up in the medical field as an assistant so focus was necessary and now I really liked it. I learned to do things under a doctors supervision and then passed the test for a license. Now I am retired, 71 years old still. Take my seizure medication and live by myself. I enjoy your videos. Can’t wait to see more when you can do them.
My 3mo old son has complete ACC along with a few other brain abnormalities and rare diseases and I’d love to have a conversation with you about what the best way will be for me to be as compassionate as I can. How do you want people to treat you? Would you rather someone always be there to help or do things independently even if they may take longer?
Hi my son is 3mo old and has complete acc too with other things. Can you share with me how you develop. Thank you.
Another great video Kev!
Hi Kevin, I am from India....... It makes me so happy that you're working on this RUclips channel. It makes me so happy that you're doing so well... I wish you always keep doing better like this, both on your channel and life.
Chris is such an amazing person. May God keep him always healthy, wealthy, happy and safe....
All the best for future.
May God be with you all along this journey....
Lots of love...
Maybe you could make a video on what to do if someone around you has a seizure or what you would want people to do if they were with you when you have one. I think it’s one of those things most of us don’t think about until it happens.
Thanks so much for feeling so free to share yourself and your life with everyone.I think you’re a remarkable guy.🥰
