To be honest, I sometimes prefer it over the detectors. It's may be bit annoying, but it's over quickly. If a detector keeps going off, it can take forever. At one point I had to go through a metal detector five times (Probably the buttons on my trousers or something like that) before they finally decided just to pat me down. Only took a few seconds and problem solved.
What makes me sad is that you can’t see how beautiful you are 😭 Seriously though you’re gorgeous and I have so much respect for you. You’re really brave!
Awe, you just totally made me smile! Thank you for your sweet and encouraging comment. But in all honesty, even though I cannot see my reflection in the mirror, in photos, in videos, over the past 12 years of living with complete blindness, I have learned to see the beauty that matters most. Beauty is it something that is only seen through the eyes, but more importantly, through the eyes of the heart 💛
Did you forget to take your medication today? In any event, I find her to be very attractive. And by the way, is that you in your profile pic? If so, well...
Soekieloekie Kaassoufflé The person who commented said something awful but deleted their comment so no need to lecture me. How would you know if my comment is “harsh” when you didn’t see what they said? Relax.
Soekieloekie Kaassoufflé I don't know what he's saying. Who would say something mean about such a beautiful yet blind woman? Beautifully blind! I think he's just being mean lol
It's so strange to me. I could never imagine being that formal with my parents. I mean I still always showed them respect, but I just called them mom and dad.
Capn Cook saying ma’am and sir to parents, and all adults is something we do in the south. Even adults say it to older adults as a way to show respect. It’s not really considered ‘formal’, but more so a form of respect.
Capn Cook I could never imagine NOT saying it to my parents or elders. Lol I'd get that stern stare. Then again, I'm southern. It's what we do down here. Older ppl will sometimes say yes ma'am to young ladies as well as a show of respect. I like it! My future children will be taught the same.
Tessa and Alissa down in the south , if you don’t say that , and your mom or elder gives you that look like what did u just say I’m like I’m sorry I mean yes ma’mm
@@annymonteiro4549 The use of the phrase "I see" isn't a problem for the blind. POINTING to indicate where to go is USELESS FOR THE BLIND! Mire people need to grasp this!
@Brian Luong they are they cost approximately $100,000 to train 1 dog in Australia, not sure in the US, I have some blind mate’s who have guide dog’s, who I have helped guide onstage (when Stage managing) so the dog’s knew where their mark was, and they take it in their stride, dog’s are pretty amazing. I worked with a quadriplegic guy just once as I was working as an emergency on call support worker, he had is usual worker’s that would come to his place everyday, he lived alone. But this was 5am when I got the call, and he had a support Cat that was trained to wake him up by tapping his face gently to let him know that he had soiled himself, and that was 1997, I had no idea that they were training support Cat’s too, was really impressed, he had a pointer that he used with his mouth to press the phone buttons.
its all about the training. yes you can even train kids to be like this. some people will call that sort of training demented an cruel. but if it works so be it.
That is a person stronger than I would be. I survived Vietnam; multiple near-drownings in oceans and rivers; holdups and muggings; 64 infusions of chemotherapy; but I would not survive losing my sight. I do not have her kind of strength, and I'm not afraid to admit it.
Ilu Meh Scientifically bees cannot fly, their wings cannot support them, but nobody told them that. They believe they can so they do, believe in yourself there is so much you can accomplish! Godspeed
Loved to see the great support this lady received going through security. Makes you realize that there are still some pretty great people out there. To take their time, at obviously a very busy period, gives one hope that more people understand and take those few extra seconds to help someone. It really does make a difference! I hope this lady enjoyed her flight, and got the same care on board as she did going through security. Thank you to whatever airline this was. Excellent job!! Best Regards from Ontario, Canada, Jenn.
I so know what it's like going through an airport. I am a deaf man now. I haven't always been deaf. I have a crappy condition called Mineres and after like 20 years, it finally wrecked my eardrums. I'm deaf. Your blind but still, we are not letting the world stop us! It's good to look up to you my friend!!
Abalam Anderson Do you have a Hearing Ear Dog? They are just like the Service Dogs for the blind, ONLY INSTEAD OF BEING YOUR EYES THEY ARE YOUR EARS! SINCE YOU ARE "NEWLY" DEAF, LIFE WOULD BE HARDER FOR YOU THAN SOMEONE WHO WAS BORN DEAF OR IN MY CASE HARD OF HEARING. IN MY CASE, PEOPLE REALLY THINK I'M LYING BECAUSE IT APPEARS TO THE IGNORANTS THAT MY HEARING IS SUPERSONIC, BUT THAT IS FAR FROM IT. I READ LIPS, HEAR SOME WITH ONE EAR, HEAR SOME DIFFERENTLY WITH THE OTHER. I USE SCIENCE TO ASSIST WITH THE REST, AND MY ADA SERVICE DOG HAS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF A HEARING EAR DOG, SEEING EYE, IF, GOD FORBID, MY MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS MAKES ME BLIND FOR A TIME AGAIN. HE ALSO IS A TRAINED SEIZURE ALERT, REMOVE, MEANS GETS ME OUT OF SEIZURE IF HE COULD NOT PREVENT, AND HE ASSISTS IN ALERTS FOR: ASTHMA, FALLS, NEED TO BE ON SOFA, CHAIR, BED, WALKER, AND MUCH MORE. HE IS ALSO A THERAPY DOG. TO ME, HE IS A PART OF MY LIFE I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT, LIKE O2. I RECCOMEND YOU GET ONE AND GET YOUR FREEDOM, INDEPENCE AND SAFETY BACK. GOOD LUCK. GOD BLESS.
Leaz Kickers people could read her the comments, and I'm pretty sure there's a mode on computers that reads the screen I saw it on another blind person's channel
I had two TSA agents fired in Chicago for their inhumane treatment of my wife. She had just gone thru radiation treatment at CTCA. She had forgotten the bottle of water she had in the wheelchair that was from Raddison Hotel. The agents we,re laughing about it being radiation water and maybe they should strip search her. I got straight into their faces and they then threatened me. After thirty minutes of dealing with these two jackasses, the supervisor showed up. Other passengers backed my story and the two jerks were pulled off the line. A week later I got a letter of apology and was told the two agents had been fired. Some of the agents are ok, but as the saying goes, Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Jesus that's revolting behavior. Your poor wife, fair play to you. Some people have no manners and that they are above reproach. Hope your wife is doing well.
My mother in law was body searched when we flew back from USA after the interrogation and experience. She was man handled all over about 10 times by woman officer. She had nightmares and never flew again.
Hats off to the guide dog. Wearing that harness the dog is all business and has been taught to ignore distractions and there were plenty in this case. The kindest thing you can do for a working dog is to ignore it while its working. I hope she enjoyed her holiday where ever you went.
Years ago I was in Rochester MN flying home to Grand Rapids, MI. The gentleman next to me was blind. We stuck up a conversation and It got to where we lived. "Grand Rapids." he said. Since the flight we were on went through Minneapolis (for those who don't know, a VERY large facility!) I asked him how he would get to the next gate. "Oh I ask for help. My dog is pretty sharp but he can't read." Well I said I'm going to Grand Rapids as well, I'd be happy to guide you there. He agreed that would be great. So I asked him where in Grand Rapids did he live. Every landmark he mentioned I had never heard of and I lived there my entire life. So I asked which major highway was that near and I hadn't heard of that either! Finally I said: "Grand Rapids, Michigan right?" "No, Grand Rapids Minnesota!" OOps! We had a good laugh and went our own ways upon departure from the plane.
My guide dog loves the pat down too. He looks forward to it every time. It’s nice to see staff who seemed to be respectful and listen. It certainly makes the process better for both security doing their job and us as passengers going about our everyday ordinary lives.
@JesusLovesGunViolence JesusLovesGunViolence why do you have to be so pessimistic? Good to know that you're the type of person who'll watch a "heartfelt video" and be unnecessarily rude about it 🙄
@JesusLovesGunViolence JesusLovesGunViolence I don't see a point in arguing with someone who will ironically keep repeating parrot so I'll leave it at that, hope you have a nice weekend ✨
i just want to say that i found ur channel a couple days ago and i've been binge watching ur videos since then and i luv u already, ur so beautiful inside and out and i admire u so much !! looking forward to watching more of u and ur journey (:

Joy, To my astonishment, I am grateful that you acknowledged my comment. WOW! I was not expecting that considering that many of the comments below are that of 10 months and older. I subscribed to your channel. You are not victim. You are a hero! I hope our youth will be graced by your braveness, and not victim hood mentality. Our youth, and some adults have no idea how amazing they have it. They all want their safe spaces, and most are being offended by anything. Yet, you have kept living, and have let nothing stop you. Bravo Joy. Pardon the next couple words, but I have to say it. Brav F'in O!!!! lol God bless you, your family and loved ones. Thanks again for taking a minute out of your day to acknowledge me. I am grateful.
Wow, your comments truly encouraged me and warmed my heart with so much joy, no pun intended LOL. We each have the choice to choose the attitude when approaching each life circumstance, I choose joy!!! It’s not always easy, definitely hard for me at times too, but choosing joy is the only way to live. I believe in God, and I believe God has a purpose and a plan in everything. Even in our darkest moments, God will use those moments to shape us, mold us, and develop us into the person He wants us to be so we can live to see the sun shine again! When we choose to focus on our blessings instead of our sorrow/disappointments, it’s easier to live a victorious life! Through my blindness, and health challenges, the eyes of my heart have been open to see life, this world, people, and my challenges in the most beautiful light. And by the way, made me smile that you were happy I acknowledged your comment, glad I could brighten your day! God bless you 💛
Antonia is so friendly and cute and inteligent dog..just like all guide dogs .. i am sure it's the best friend of yours..I wish you all the best..you are very lovely lady.God bless!
Thank you so much! And yes, Antonia is simply an angel on earth, have you seen my new guiding angel Arabella? I now have two beautiful angel girls to watch over me and protect me every single day. Many blessings,
You are one of the most inspiring and amazing people to bless us with their presence! You have utmost strength and courage to be able to live this life to the fullest despite of such an enormous challenge! You are truly an Angel! Love you and love your family for giving you all of their support! Wish you nothing, but the best in life! And people, please visit her channel and educate yourselves, before you pass any judgments!!!
I love your channel already! I came upon it 2 days ago and subscribed immediately! your name is Joy and it seems like your always so joyful and so sweet to Antonia!❤️
It's amazing how much extra you have to go through with the TSA, compared to what european airports have to do. The patting of your hands is something I've never seen here in Norway or Europe.
You are so kind! I love how happy and cheerful you are to the workers. Most people would be frustrated in a busy airport like that. I have such admiration for that. Looking up to you❤️❤️❤️
This was hard to watch since there was a huge lineup behind her. >.< . Thank god for people with patience and understanding. Even the workers were real nice, they don't usually put up with being video taped and always look annoyed.
I am so loving your positive attitude! I have a service dog as well and I try to use every encounter as an Opportunity to educate and spread love and awareness instead of negativity. Thank you for being so kind, patient, and loving!
Surprised you got to video that. They're normally very touchy about photos (or video) being taken in the secure area, but then you could say you never say the notices on the wall! What a pulaver (Scottish (Doric) saying for a carry on)
You’re a beautiful young lady and your beauty shows inside as much as it does outside. Thank you for sharing this. Gives folks an opportunity to appreciate what you have to do to in your life to travel. God bless you.
Opthamologist according to my phone spell check. So you were close, just added a few too many letters. Try learning the word by breaking it down phonetically. Op tham olo gist. I was not super brilliant at school, but I learnt the basics primarily from lots of reading and writing sentences that read well.
I’m learning to walk again. How I would cope being blind? I do not believe I could. My heart goes out to the young woman who was so gracious and the security staff. Lastly to her treasured guide dog.
I've had my Service Dog for 14-months, but so far we haven't had the opportunity to fly. However, we do experience the same stares and while it was annoying at first, we have come to understand many people have no idea what a Service Dog does or is, so are naturally curious when they see one working with their handler. As for the noise; as a father of two, I'm not bother by children crying as I'm very sympathetic having traveled with my young ones. The only people bother by children crying are those who have not had the joy of having and traveling with children. Both are experiences we'll never forget. :)
Gianluca Carafa I cant comment since I am not blind but I rely on a service dog as well. She is seems happy and positive despite her blindness. She’s showing that disabilities don’t have to control someone’s life. Bionic eyes would be helpful but then a body starts becoming machine then an actual body. It’s better to try to get a new set of corneas from someone that died and are organ donors. I don’t know if a new set of corneas would help her. I know they have helped other people see. Sometimes people are born blind.
Pets Plus EDS I don't see what's wrong with being part machine. Lots of people today have mechanical implants and they do a lot of good. The two best examples I can think of right now are pacemakers (my grandmother wouldn't be alive without one), and cochlear implants which allow people to hear. Also, it'd be cool to just be able to truthfully tell people that I'm a cyborg! :-)
Nah, it's worse... this is the TSA on a _good_ day. I was "randomly" selected for a strip search once (was asked to hold up my shirt and pull down my jeans in a curtained-off area), and have refused to fly since. That was right before they started installing 3D body scanners. All that and they _still_ can't catch the actual terrorists. It's ridiculous.
@Salt Maker Um... officially, the entire POINT of the TSA was to prevent another 9/11 event. And yet multiple tests by news agencies & security contractors has shown that you can still board a plane with everything necessary for a hijacking.
It’s not as bad as people make it out to be. Just pack nothing but clothes and you’ll more than likely never have a problem. Just look up what you’re bringing and guidelines for it and you’re more than likely never have that problem.
That was a blog never watched before.. its lovely to see how happy you are.. i would not know what to do if i lost my eyesight. Which could happen at anytime. Love 2 you and your dog.. your a inspiration..
Tina Ditrius that is awesome! I so appreciate the support. You’re going to enjoy the next couple weeks on my channel, I’m leaving Sunday to go train with my new guide dog.

When we choose to focus on our blessings instead of our sorrow/disappointments, it’s easier to live a victorious life! Through my blindness, and health challenges, the eyes of my heart have been open to see life, this world, people, and my challenges in the most beautiful light. And by the way, made me smile that you were happy I acknowledged your comment, glad I could brighten your day! God bless you 💛
Antonia is so friendly and cute and inteligent dog..just like all guide dogs .. i am sure it's the best friend of yours..I wish you all the best..you are very lovely lady.God bless!

Kermit The Frog yesterday and the world was ot adg
What a Beautiful Young Lady So Pleasant and Cheerful
It's amazing how much extra you have to go through with the TSA, compared to what european airports have to do. The patting of your hands is something I've never seen here in Norway or Europe.
You are so kind! I love how happy and cheerful you are to the workers. Most people would be frustrated in a busy airport like that. I have such admiration for that. Looking up to you❤️❤️❤️
I love everyone in the background was staring at you 😂💚
Beautiful and confident lady.
Appreciates
Easier then when my family goes through honestly lmao
Ms. Antonia is such a sweet and patient lady. Love both of you so much.
i love the “what you’re going to do” 😂😂😂
Your so beautiful and inspiring!!!God bless you and everyone reading this!!
This was hard to watch since there was a huge lineup behind her. >.< . Thank god for people with patience and understanding. Even the workers were real nice, they don't usually put up with being video taped and always look annoyed.
Workers were great and she is a beautiful woman. Looked like people in line were good with it but I'm sure someone was whining back there.
You are so beautiful!!!! Such a lovely woman💕
Awe, thank you so much :-)
two beautiful angles trying to catch a flight
Wow! You alway are the epitome of Grace and class in every situation.
I always hate peoples crying kids in the background
Adrian Scott, Me too, I fucking hate that shit, nails to a chalk board.
Few year ago, you were some people crying kid
Be happy that people put up with you, when you were an annoying crying baby, or you would not be able to write silly comments on youtube today.
There kids that's what they do
Mr. Lachance never ever out loud.
I am so loving your positive attitude! I have a service dog as well and I try to use every encounter as an Opportunity to educate and spread love and awareness instead of negativity.
Thank you for being so kind, patient, and loving!
Surprised you got to video that. They're normally very touchy about photos (or video) being taken in the secure area, but then you could say you never say the notices on the wall! What a pulaver (Scottish (Doric) saying for a carry on)
Scottishboy1956 or they asked an they said it was ok lol
It's ok to film and take pics even if they say you cant. It's a public area
Palaver (English).
@@oldfucker68 wrong
@@TheBrownieSundownHD the law states no exception of privacy in public.
You’re a beautiful young lady and your beauty shows inside as much as it does outside. Thank you for sharing this. Gives folks an opportunity to appreciate what you have to do to in your life to travel. God bless you.
I just stumbled upon this channel and I fell in love with Joy and Antonia!
Opthamologist according to my phone spell check. So you were close, just added a few too many letters.
Try learning the word by breaking it down phonetically.
Op tham olo gist.
I was not super brilliant at school, but I learnt the basics primarily from lots of reading and writing sentences that read well.
Phonetically op thal molo gist
Great job done by the officers kind cooperative and doing everything to calm and assist the lady and Dog Good job officers God Bless.
The sight of TSA makes me cringe.
You illuminate the days of many people . God bless you.
I hate how everyone keeps staring at her, like mind your own business and she’ll slay like she always does.
I think it’s the recording
If she didn’t want to be watched, she wouldn’t make a video about it…
She's loudly vlogging in a busy airport, what exactly are they supposed to be looking at? lol
I’m learning to walk again. How I would cope being blind? I do not believe I could. My heart goes out to the young woman who was so gracious and the security staff. Lastly to her treasured guide dog.
I've had my Service Dog for 14-months, but so far we haven't had the opportunity to fly. However, we do experience the same stares and while it was annoying at first, we have come to understand many people have no idea what a Service Dog does or is, so are naturally curious when they see one working with their handler. As for the noise; as a father of two, I'm not bother by children crying as I'm very sympathetic having traveled with my young ones. The only people bother by children crying are those who have not had the joy of having and traveling with children. Both are experiences we'll never forget. :)
A wonderful Joy encountering professional and polite security personell. 🌹😊
Puppy got some gud old massage 😊
I’m so glad dogs can be trained to help people 🙏🏼❤️
I hope they invent bionic eyes for the blind
Gianluca Carafa I cant comment since I am not blind but I rely on a service dog as well. She is seems happy and positive despite her blindness. She’s showing that disabilities don’t have to control someone’s life. Bionic eyes would be helpful but then a body starts becoming machine then an actual body. It’s better to try to get a new set of corneas from someone that died and are organ donors. I don’t know if a new set of corneas would help her. I know they have helped other people see. Sometimes people are born blind.
Pets Plus EDS your right but I just feel bad for her
Depending on the severity of her condition they do have forms and implants to give vision back
lseul that's cool . hope she gets them.
Pets Plus EDS I don't see what's wrong with being part machine. Lots of people today have mechanical implants and they do a lot of good. The two best examples I can think of right now are pacemakers (my grandmother wouldn't be alive without one), and cochlear implants which allow people to hear. Also, it'd be cool to just be able to truthfully tell people that I'm a cyborg! :-)
The dog did good with everything going on you 2. God bless u 2
My God in heaven, I haven't been to an airport in years, Is that really what it's like now?
Nah, it's worse... this is the TSA on a _good_ day. I was "randomly" selected for a strip search once (was asked to hold up my shirt and pull down my jeans in a curtained-off area), and have refused to fly since. That was right before they started installing 3D body scanners. All that and they _still_ can't catch the actual terrorists. It's ridiculous.
@Salt Maker Um... officially, the entire POINT of the TSA was to prevent another 9/11 event. And yet multiple tests by news agencies & security contractors has shown that you can still board a plane with everything necessary for a hijacking.
All they do is go to the perimeter climb over the fence and board security is a waste of time
I have watched this for the second time and I’m uplifted and humbled
Safe .... Blind woman. I know the scanning receive the metal thing for the red light ( beep). Dog needs to go with blind woman safely
That's nice they actually help. I've personally never flew through an airport but I constantly hear nothing but negative things about it.
It’s not as bad as people make it out to be. Just pack nothing but clothes and you’ll more than likely never have a problem. Just look up what you’re bringing and guidelines for it and you’re more than likely never have that problem.
So glad they treated her with dignity. I've seen otherwise
Thank you so much for this video. Gives me and my dog so much encouragement and relives anxiety.
That was sorry excuse for tsa.to pet her dog. Great video. You don't see this evryda👍👍👍👍👍
That was a blog never watched before.. its lovely to see how happy you are.. i would not know what to do if i lost my eyesight. Which could happen at anytime. Love 2 you and your dog.. your a inspiration..
Damn why haven’t I subscribed to your channel yet until now
Fantastic service you received 😃 props to those airport staff.
That must of been extremely awkward to just announce what you’re going to do lmao. I give her props for that
You are beautiful just the way you are beauty is within, and the persons heart. God Bless you young lady!:)
I'm just a bit curious about why you don't have more subs... :/ :D
They were so nice to you. Treated you with respect and would have camera or not. Great dog.
I’ve watch several of your videos in the past few days, might as well subscribe lol
Tina Ditrius that is awesome! I so appreciate the support. You’re going to enjoy the next couple weeks on my channel, I’m leaving Sunday to go train with my new guide dog.
You are beautiful & inspiring to those that need inspiration!
