“Everybody has different problems in life, so this happens to be mine.”
So humbling, thank you for this reminder :)
Humbling indeed. We need to be constantly reminded.
You are a strong and positive lady. Stay this way! May you be happy always. Keep up the good work!
I am sorry Stephanie, on behalf of all the apparently normal looking people. It's their mind, their disability is in their mental capacity, that's why they try to put you down. I hope you find a good person and live a good life.
I literally cried when I watched this
I am so proud of u Stephanie! Keep going! The world needs more fighters like you!
don't pity her if you don't wanna treat her any any differently.

Stay positive and don’t let what others think affect the way you are. You are amazing and you know that! Keep going and be happy!
I have this condition too!!! People ask me what happened to me, they say “were u in an accident or smth?” I just say that this is what I was born with. and IMO if they can’t accept that then that’s too bad for them. Proud of u for sharing ur journey, Stephanie! ❤️

Steph,you're beautiful & strong! Stronger than most abled people! You deserved what you want... absolutely no one can take away what's yours!

Hi Steph, you are a beautiful lady with a strong spirit! God bless you sister! Keep fighting the good fight. Much love.
A lady of strong character and self worth, wise beyond her age. Peace with God and self goes a long way to self fulfillment. True fighter.
Key thing about being disable is always stay confident in your disability and always have fun with it.
If you can do these 2 then I promise you, you will be mentally strong and you will learn so much and be so independent.
They are the 2 biggest advice I would give to anyone who is struggling.
Your video is inspiring and thanks for sharing. Stay positive and strong as you have shown in this video. Respect!
Let those past bad experiences go away... 😁
Keep inspiring people....
Keep doing what you love to do...
You have a great personality. I believe it will attract more and more great people around you... 👍
i used to have a younger sister who had cerebral palsy and she also had the same problem as her but my younger sister passed away when she was 6 years old . I felt that i could understand better from her story and made me think of my younger sister who had alot struggled. Hearing her story made me cry as i really miss my younger sister who went in better place
Thank you Stephanie for sharing your story. I will support you!
Thank you 😊
Thank you for sharing these wonderful stories.

This was so inspiring!! :))
Thank you for sharing your experiences and educating us. You are an inspiration and I'll definitely check out Shade! Keep it up :)
Hi Stephanie...You ARE a FIGHTER...Giving Open Speeches is NOT EVERYBODY can DO..(Stay Strong n Chill...What you Said...is TRUE)..💪
Everyone's unique in their own ways, definitely there are people out there who are in worser conditions than you. Keep moving forward, be happy and live life to the fullest!
In this day and age with technology, I hope there are some ways to help improve your condition. Stay strong & healthy 💪🏻😊
Strong! You are so positive!!!!! 🌻
Keep it up. You are a TRUE INFLUENCER unlike the fakes out there.
Hi Stephenany. Thank you for putting a smile on my face.
WOW! You are so funny, so intelligent and inspiring.
You are who you are; very unique.
Keep smiling. God 💘 you.
Lots of positivity in her. 👍👍
I sort of unfortunate know how it feels to be shown the extreme version of a disability. And then having that extreme example of a disability, being the only example of that disability, and having to rely on that particular extreme example, as your only framework for what you’re capable of doing. I am a high functioning, woman with autism and ADHD, and while I am very close to obtaining a communications degree. I still have people doubt my intellectual capacities. I’m not not be good at reading context clues entirely yet. But I’m not an idiot. I don’t think I would be excepted to the schools. Honor Society if I was. Stay strong Stephanie. As far as I’m concerned, you are a strong young woman like I am. Constantly smashing stigmas of what other people think our life should be.
Stephanie is.... awesome!
Growing up, I’ve had a few very close friends with this condition. Ranging from a bit of spasticity within their legs. To having spastic quadriplegia can all four limbs and relying on a device to communicate on their behalf. What seems to bother me? It’s although I don’t have this condition. The worst that I have is already hereditary EDS. It absolutely frustrated me that my close friends were only seeing extreme conditions and examples of cerebral palsy and then being judged accordingly. Everybody with any condition is very different. There’s a reason why it’s acalled a spectrum.!
I am proud of you, Steph
Stay strong you are an amazing woman!!
She is beautiful
God bless you always, Steph
She’s inspiring!
Hi Stephanie,
You are strong and you are funny. You make me cry and then laugh..the one on romance novels lol...May God bless you with many friends and happiness!
simply inspirational👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Stephanie is confident and everyone is unique in their own way, Sexual matters are so personal and this question shouldn't be ask by anyone, the people are trying to be funny when they ask such questions, can we have Stephanie IG?
I'm very old school and don't have IG... sorry
@@Stephanie.esther.fam7926 no prob thanks for replying 👍

@@davhooper1710 Hi may I know whether you had already received the book cause I’ve place my order too?
Stephanie..you are a beautiful child of God🙏
If you want to stare at something go museum and stare at something! What brilliant sarcasm! 👏
Amazing human being.
I love you Stephanie 😘
Thank you Stephanie for stepping up and been so brave to share with us your feelings! You indeed are a great fighter! Never give up and you are really a great writer! You are a beautiful lady with unlimited potential! :)
Excellent ❣️ ❣️ ❣️ ❣️ ❣️
6:35 min. People also stare at me and my family when we are eating as they are probably told or brain-washed that we are different when we are actually very normal people. In fact highly intelligent human beings. So branding people in Singapore is actually a problem whether you are normal or not. Often if you do not join those religious cult groups, they would brand you and profit from their relentless multi-level marketing campaigns to gain insanely profits. I have also bought your peom "Shades" and it gives me a much better perspectives of people with celebral palsy. Thanks for sharing your thoughts through your peoms.
God bless you stay stong
She's a beast.
As long as your fully vaccinated that's the main thing
Even as a normal person, many of us did not consider a relationship, sex, opposite sex. Be yourself, its not worth. Your brain works better.
❤
I look up to you
Peace be with you always Stephanie. in Jesus name 🙏
You are a special. You are beautiful. Never let anyone tell u otherwise. Fuck the rest.
😍😍💪💪💪💪
✊️🙏😊🙂⚘️
I feel sorry for her being born in Singapore, an extremely judgmental.
That’s exactly what an alien would say
6:55 Staring is plainly rude, just don't do it. Not only to her, but to general public as well
I don't know why but I watched the entire clip before clicking on the dislike button. I am sorry but not to you Stephanie, you don't owe us a living but I am sorry I am not the better person this planet has to offer you.
❤️
