I lost both legs in Vietnam and want to say thank you for your videos. When we had children, so many people ask, how we did it. I hated questions like that, but respect you so much for showing, where there is a will there is a way to do anything. Much respect.
It may be rude, but It may not necessarily be for dumbness...the so called "abled people" can't even imagine the amount of unknown muscles disabled people can train and develop...they can't figure it out 'cause they don't have experience or perception of those muscles. As simple as that. Those muscles are the key for extra strength and iperflexibility that allow all of you to do extraordinary things.
I respect that you have managed to live for decades without two legs. I was injured when serving in the military about 20 years ago and was paralyzed below the neck. God bless you with health and peace!
We often look up to the fortunate in our crap modern society and culture, whose achievements are more often than not a large part down to good luck. Yes, they work hard - but a vast amount of people work hard to no acclaim. Footballers, pop stars, Influencers etc are where they are predominantly due to lucky genetics - athleticism, beauty etc. The real heroes of the world are people like yourself who deal with unthinkable circumstances and do so with grace, humour, determination and optimism. You are the real hero!
Sarah, for those that even asked you the question, am speechless. To begin with, its such a personal topic and am glad that you mentioned that you have your dignity, and that in itself should be respected by everyone. I enjoy viewing your videos because you’re such an inspiration. Thank you and God bless you and your beautiful family.
I personally have no interest in knowing, but for those who have asked, she DID say ask her anything, so at least they're being honest about their thoughts and curiosities.
Its a very valid adult intelligent question... how DOES one without arms, clean up after themselves??? Huhh?? For the people belly aching over this question being ask to this awesome lady... Can YOU tell me??? Because I couldn't imagine how one would say clean up themsleves after a bowel movement without arms and without help...... or a woman be able to clean up after urination... I can perhaps figure the vaginal part out but not just fully grasp a foot and leg of the same person twisting like that... But good lord that must be some impressive bending of the knees and hips to twist all the way around like that to reach those parts!!!! Let's not forget we are not talking about something everyone else can do here... So of course people with inquisitive minds of course are going to ask and would just like to know how that's possible... Heck this knowledge could help anyone of us if we end up in that same situation... And teach us how to return to our regular lives and be able to live happy and free.. if any of you other people out there have issues with people asking these kinds of questions, you need to grow up... how is one suppose to learn if not by asking??? And one can't just poof know the answer... So there is only one way to find out.. ask as politely and reasonably as possible to someone who has the answer... in this case this fine lady had offered to answer any question within that topic... so... And look, even she agrees that she did offer and she is certainly mature enough to nicely give us the answer... So... everyone else... take a chill pill and let the rest of us learn..
You're such a courageous person. May God bless you always. There's things I cant ask because I know where my line should be drawn. Words should be asked, by me, myself, "is it kind, is it offensive, is it loving, etc, and other good things to say" and that's it, the rest I won't even try to figure out. Keep it up, youre precious in the eyes of God.
Back in 2008 I fell and landed on my hands shattering both my wrists. I had to have surgery and was in casts two months. This was one of the hardest periods of my life, and to see you live this way every day is just so amazing!! You are amazing! I can't imagine how you functioned when you were 9 months pregnant. Thank you for sharing! By the way, that back part of the foot is called the heel in English.
Sarah you are such a precious woman! God has a great purpose for your life. You are more of a blessing than you will ever know. Thank you for being you! God Bless You!
Yeah, really, God should make everyone without arms so we all can have a great purpose in life and be more of a blessing than we will every know-what a wonderful, loving God. Oh, and before I forget, don't forget to give as much money as you can for Jesus' work especially you older people who are going to die pretty soon-make sure you leave a good chunk of your estate to God's work because, as you know, you'll be going to heaven (wink, wink).
Fancy asking you such a personal question. Unbelievable! I remember seeing a woman like you in the town. She was with her children and husband who were walking behind. I approached her because I recognized her as the younger sister of a girl I was at school with and I wanted to know how her sister was doing. Her husband, bless him, was so protective of her that he immediately came forward and stood by her side. It was sweet to see how much her cared but sad that society had taught him he needed to do this.
Bonjour Sarah. J'ai découvert vos vidéos il y a 2 semaines et je n'ai pas de mots pour exprimer mon admiration pour ce que vous accomplissez au quotidien. Merci pour cette "taboo conversation". Par respect et pudeur, je n'aurais jamais osé vous poser une telle question. Je vous souhaite une belle journée et à bientôt sur RUclips.
I commented on one of her videos about the same question and I got the answer here !! You are such daring and lovely soul Sarah !! You r not abnormal, you are just little different than us, more capable and more lovely child of God !! U inspires me a lot !!
You have a natural way of communicating, positive, instinctive and truthful, you may have a physical disability but in those area's your actually gifted, awesome.
I admired you for the things you can acomplish without any help, and i also believe the disability its only in our head thanks for sharing your life with us..
Life is a series of adjustments and YOU handle them well! I personally have NO questions; just your growing confidence tells me ALL i know and see in YOU, what you can handle and do! I understand your desire to teach and educate your new audience, you're already well adjusted and Its quite obvious & your willingness to educate the general public speaks of your love for yourself and helping others what real and true love id for another human being! excellent job! Your number 1 FAN. Mr. Hopkins
You are not only giving answers to our curious minds but you're a great inspiration to all who lost their hands somehow and maybe people without hands are learning to do things themselves by seeing you actually managing everything yourself. Hats off to you...
Elle est incroyable je suis tombé sur ses vidéos par pur hasard Franchement quand on se plaint pour un oui ou un non pensons à Sarah elle respire la joie de vivre,élève sa fille,fait à manger,dessine BRAVO Sarah vous êtes superbe et vous nous donnez une sacré leçon de vie.Vous avez gagné une abonnée.
You are the most inspiring person I have ever seen on RUclips. Thank you for sharing your incredible courage and honesty. Regards Douglas Raymond from Canada
People are interested in taboo themes, but I think it is absolutely normal. I can imagine how to use toilet without arms , doesn't need to show. I know you do almost everything by yourself, and if you stuck, there is your love can help!! Love your video, and thank you for making in English. Have a great day!!
You are truly, a very amazing lady. I said it in another one of your video's, you are a very brave person to educate the uneducated and curious person.. Thank you Sarah. X
You are great. Make things seem simple that are impossible for others. Thank you for teaching us that we should never just complain and that we could do so much more with willpower. Much happiness to you.
Je t'ai découverte par ton nom en recherchant une ancienne élève sur FB et si j'ai été directement impressionné par ton talent de peintre, je l'ai encore plus été par tes vidéos de la vie quotidienne. Cette nouvelle série de vidéos est très délicate mais pour un premier sujet effectivement intime.. tu t'en es sortie avec aisance et simplicité. Bravo à toi et puisque ta vidéo était en anglais.. keep going !
Bonjour... s'il vous plaît, excusez-moi mon mauvais français, d'où viens-tu et d'où vient Sarah? Aussi, excusez-moi encore, pourquoi écrivez-vous «bravo» à Sarah pour avoir fait la vidéo en anglais?
@@RalphDratmanHello, Sarah lives in Belgium and speaks French ... She made this video in English because many people who follow her are English speakers. And there, it's your turn to forgive my bad English!
I forgot to mention in my comment with the 120 questions... I find it very charming how you pronounce "toes!" /tuːz/ instead of /toʊz/! I think that is very cute! Your English is very, very good and I am very appreciative of your language decision for this series, so I do not want to sound like I am making fun of "toes." I like it! 😘
I think its beautiful that you are sharing all sorts of topics and try to respond to questions, but I do feel sorry for people being curious to the point of asking these things. Truly, I can't imagine why people can't put themselves in your shoes, so to speak, and imagine what they might do in similar situations. God bless you in all you do! Your daughter is darling! 😉
Basically, the legs and feet substitute for the arms and hands in many ways and activities. I'm glad that people use alternative methods rather than be limited in living their lives to the fullest of their abilities. God bless.
Yeeaaeahhhh, more videos in English! If you can pour a pan with scalding water, you can do anything!! Thanks for your honesty and openness. Watching your shower video was ingenious, using the hair brush to scrub your scalp. So many ways around everyday needs. I wish I could have understood your video of, I think it was your "pampered" one, and the skin care products you use and like, because you have beautiful skin!! Can you do another one in English sometime?? Thanks😀
That was a very personal and intimate question. I was very curious how you would respond. It was a very dignified and proper response. I was impressed how you demonstrated some of your extraordinary flexibility by drinking from a cup. I see some of the other responses in this thread and am surprised how many questions unique individuals get asked such intimate questions. Curiosity is no excuse for disrespect. I believe your openness will help many people.
Okay. I saw the title on this video and though it felt odd to tap on it, curiosity got the best of me. I never thought about that until I saw the video.
Sarah. First time I heard you speak in English. Wow , Excellent. I do Love your Belgium French. It can be also difficult for toilet, with spine disability, even with hands. You are Awesome. GOD BLESS.
I really respect and truly appreciate the fact that you’ve been so very courageous to share this with us. I’ve generally been very curious to know this, so thank you for enlightening us and God bless 🙏🏾
I admire you for maintaining your dignity to this question🥰 I am curious on a couple of things though... -Do you swim? and -Have you ever had a dream where you had arms? I hope those aren't disrespectful questions, I have so much respect for you💞 Have a blessed evening Sarah😊 I have an Aunt who is blind and I have asked the same question to her , if she'd ever had a dream that she could see in....She said YES! Which I found so fascinating!🥰
bidets can solve most issues and some come with dryers so no more questions needed really. see section on dressing or undressing if she has talents to do this.. amazing girl!
It is Not Crazy, people have different types of disabilities and Life goes on as normal, Because really what's normal? We love you and respect you and we look up to you you are an amazing lady. You do so much And much people do so little
People want to know how astronauts use the toilet, so it's a common question. Your flexibility and use of your legs and feet make it totally sensible that this is just another ordinary task for you. Your dignity and your intimacy are paramount, and yet your explanation was perfect. Thank You. I tried clapping my feet like you did and I need to practice!!
Our darling young woman. Notwithstanding the many inquiries regarding this delicate subject matter, It's nobody's business unless it's to help another succeed in mastering this daily function common to all people living. I leave at 1:06. I will see you another day. Your loving fan, Steven Duane.
This is a really nice series for you to start! And to start with this kind of topic is once again very courageous of you! People with arms certainly are curious because they likely have never imagined how they would do so many small but simple tasks with only legs and feet (or some other things using chin, shoulder, mouth, etc.). Actually I'm very glad you mentioned using your heels because this again is where non-foot users may lack some imagination in how things can be done. I sure have questions to ask! And I will be honest and say right away that I'm glad you will talk about your perspective on foot fetishists because yes, I am one. I'll be very curious if you have tolerance or even acceptance of us and if that has changed over time, if you dated any or tried to avoid them, and how we treat you as a person (or fail to). How would you flirt with someone? Do you enjoy having your feet massaged or does that seem weird or unnecessary? Do you get tired of talking about feet and about being a foot user or do you enjoy talking about this unique aspect? I do notice that you put the English word "feet" in many of your video titles so I hope it is the latter! 😄 You are a very lovely woman and so I hope it is not rude to hope that you do also continue to show your beautiful and very talented toes doing the things the wonderful way you do them, sometimes "up-close and personal" as English speakers say! On the opposite side, what about people you encounter who do not like feet or are uncomfortable that you use them in public settings? Do the "foot phobes" ask you not to touch something in a store or to move your feet off of a table or even to leave? And similarly, there are some cultures where showing the sole of one's foot or pointing a foot at someone is considered rude or even insulting--what would you do if you visited such places? Would you hope they can be tolerant of someone who only has feet to use? You may also have experienced those who are attracted to amputees specifically... I can ask the same questions about your feelings about that group as with the foot fetish group. Are you ever concerned with showing your shoulders? Is it good, bad, or indifferent if someone put their hands on your shoulders like in greeting or in a conversation? When you are in public places, should people offer to help you to hold, carry, or reach for something? Or would you prefer people do not ask to help unless you ask them? Do people annoy you by being curious and watching you, or do you like the attention? How should people greet you when you meet them? Would you ever shake someone's hand with your foot or would you prefer not to? Is hugging preferable even when meeting someone new? Do you have "pet peeves" about how you are often treated by others? Do you prefer to go mostly to specific places where you are already well known and have a comfortable reception? Is your home working well for you and does it have anything you have changed to make it better or more comfortable for you? What do you look for when you look for a new home? Which room is the most important to suit you perfectly, or else you would not consider moving there (maybe the bathroom, or the kitchen)? When you travel, is it easy or sometimes challenging to use hotel amenities or other public facilities? What is your self-image like? How do think you see yourself compared to how others see you? How do you see yourself in dreams, and do you dream about some of the things that challenge you in real life? Have you met other foot users who have lost their arms or who were also born without arms? If not, do you wish to? Did you have any guidance from the experience of other foot users when you were growing up or did you have to figure out everything along with your family? Did you ever get fitted for artificial arms and use them or did you know this was not something you would ever need from a young age? How was it for you interacting with other children and teenagers when you were growing up and in school? I know you have already covered getting dressed, and you shared that jacket made specifically for armless women. But I think it would be interesting if you modeled some of your various outfits and talk about what about each works well for you and what does not--sometimes maybe you buy clothes that are less practical because you like the look of them? Maybe this is not even a taboo/adaptability topic but something you could do regularly to change and model 2-3 of your outfits in each video about your clothes and preferences. I noticed in some of your videos that a sleeveless top (like in your exercise video) looks like it would slip off if you didn't hold your shoulders up constantly--is that ever a problem? Do your shoulders get tired keeping clothes from slipping? And what about shoes? Do you like shoes, sandals, and boots and have many, or do you get just the minimum because you will be kicking them off as soon as you get home and go barefoot? Do you avoid going barefoot at home so that you do not need to wash your feet as often? As an artist, do you always paint or have you tried other types of media (sculpting, drawing, using fabrics, etc.)? Did you have support learning art or was it hard to get teachers to work with you or understand how to teach someone with no arms? I could probably ask more but maybe that is more than enough. You are such a dear heart to make the videos you already do and to add this regular series to that is fantastic! I look forward to seeing what you will talk about! I am happy to be a supporter of you and it is delightful to interact with you. Thank you for all you do to share things about your life and for being a wonderful person! 😊
Thank you for this video . I have been trying to help a loved one learn to use the bathroom on their own. And feel the information you gave may help me help them.
Dear Sarah, Hello from Melbourne, Australia. I for one am not disappointed that you declined to give detail about such an intimate question. It's none of our business and it's also obvious you possess the necessary ability to manage all major issues in your life. Let's leave it at that. And thanks for doing some videos in English. My schoolboy French fails me totally when you speak in your native tongue and normal conversational speed.
I admire your bravery Sarah. Being a physically challenged person myself. I would find it hard to show how I do certain stuff. One day, I'll manage to muster the courage to do so. You're an inspiration. God bless you.
Sarah, I have nothing but respect for you! Some people ask me the same because of the way my arms are from my disability, Arthrogryposis. I just look surprised when I look down at my arms, like it's the first time me seeing something is wrong!! 😲
I just tried to move my hair like her with my feet and I was completely unsuccessful lol. She really doesn't have a disability. She's gifted and purely talented. Hope to be as flexible as her one day.
Hi Sarah! I think your answer was clear enough, one doesn't always need the picture. Thanks for answering such personal questions. P.S. The part of the foot you showed is called heel.
That is not something that came to mind. After watching you with your daughter, I knew you are able to care for yourself. You are such a wonderful Mama. Great job on the video though. It was definitely informative.
You mentioned the flexibility. Is that something that develops over a period of time of having to use your legs more? I think you are a ROCK Star and I am thankful to have come across your channel. I want my daughter to see women can do ANYTHING!
Absolutely your an inspiration and Love your can do attitude, keep pushing forward,I too suffer from several disabilities although I have both hands,arms legs and feet my issues are Diabetic had my two big toes on my left amputated and all my teeth removed due to deadly infections, I relarned how to eat without teeth so far going on year (3) however the worst one is Grand Maui Seizures in my brain as I had major brain surgery and went from seizure meds 500 mg per day to 5,300 mg per day and still have major seizures I can still drive ok but if I go into seizure mode I immediately get out of traffic and stop the car till seizure subsides Im 6'5" weight 311 shoe size 15 EEEE and use a biratic Walker with wheels!
I admire you enormously and have the greatest respect for you; as you have reached out to us in your video. You are a courageous and independent beautiful young lady. Thank you and God bless you. Terry Wright
for being a french speaking person your english is very good , normally the people from Brussels don't speak many languages, I am from the north so there we speak flemish, dutch , german, English and french, greetings saludos desde mexico
If any of yall are from belgium what's the traditional cleaning up method over there? I was trying to think about this I dont think the legs could bend in a way that would make it possible to wipe, but maybe they use bidet instead of toilet tissue. But then again shes able to do many things in ways that I wouldn't think of it's really amazing. I was trying to imagine how she got her toes done (must be at a nail salon I figured) and then she showed it in a video doing it herself and did it so well, I was so impressed.
Such a private matter- No need to share. YOU are an inspiration. You could have let your disability get the better of you, but it obviously didn't. God Bless.
I really admire you. I was watching your video and I got the bright idea to try using my foot to touch my face and I pulled my groin. Lol. I can only say you are amazing.
Sarah you are such an inspiration to me. You are perfect as God mae you o be. Perfection s what you re. I love you, you are glorious and precious and perfectly made. God made a masterpiece as always! With love and adoration, Angelita
I lost both legs in Vietnam and want to say thank you for your videos. When we had children, so many people ask, how we did it. I hated questions like that, but respect you so much for showing, where there is a will there is a way to do anything. Much respect.
You should have told the dumb shits who ask how you have kids. Said Fed Ex. How you do think baby's are made.
Good luck to you!

I respect that you have managed to live for decades without two legs. I was injured when serving in the military about 20 years ago and was paralyzed below the neck. God bless you with health and peace!
I would have no problem understanding how you could have sex without legs; but, how to wipe your ass without arms-that's tougher for me to imagine.

Ahaha..you are too kind sir 😂
The Japanese bathroom gadget, actually found in most Japanese homes, called "Washlet" might be useful to people who have less flexibility than Sarah
Good idea, I didn't think of that. Sarah would benefit so much from that.🤔
Pretty sure Sarah would have worked out by now what gadgets she would find useful. After all, its not like her circumstances are new.
That also crossed my mind. Maybe we should buy one for her.
Wow, you are a very impressive individual.You are a great example of human perseverance and adaptability. I wish you great things in your life..
Basically, the legs and feet substitute for the arms and hands in many ways and activities. I'm glad that people use alternative methods rather than be limited in living their lives to the fullest of their abilities. God bless.
Yoga: I am flexible
Sarah: Hold my beer!
You have a great sense of humour. Drinking water half way through was a very subtle hint. I think we get the message! All the best to you, madam.
Fantastic,your videos are very enlightening, you do not act like you have any problems with everyday things. God Bless You young Lady🙏
Oh you're such a joyful lady. God bless you. Lots of love from 🇺🇬Uganda
Yeeaaeahhhh, more videos in English! If you can pour a pan with scalding water, you can do anything!! Thanks for your honesty and openness. Watching your shower video was ingenious, using the hair brush to scrub your scalp. So many ways around everyday needs. I wish I could have understood your video of, I think it was your "pampered" one, and the skin care products you use and like, because you have beautiful skin!! Can you do another one in English sometime?? Thanks😀
That was a very personal and intimate question. I was very curious how you would respond. It was a very dignified and proper response. I was impressed how you demonstrated some of your extraordinary flexibility by drinking from a cup. I see some of the other responses in this thread and am surprised how many questions unique individuals get asked such intimate questions. Curiosity is no excuse for disrespect. I believe your openness will help many people.
A sizeable amount of people are dumb and immature, that's basically why they ask such questions.
Okay. I saw the title on this video and though it felt odd to tap on it, curiosity got the best of me. I never thought about that until I saw the video.
You're brilliant and strong women hats off
Sarah. First time I heard you speak in English. Wow , Excellent. I do Love your Belgium French. It can be also difficult for toilet, with spine disability, even with hands. You are Awesome. GOD BLESS.
Thank you for speaking in English and addressing such intimate subjects. You are an amazing woman
I really respect and truly appreciate the fact that you’ve been so very courageous to share this with us. I’ve generally been very curious to know this, so thank you for enlightening us and God bless 🙏🏾
Same here!
She's an angel 😇 yes she is , a very beautiful angel at that ,
I admire you for maintaining your dignity to this question🥰
I am curious on a couple of things though...
-Do you swim?
and
-Have you ever had a dream where you had arms?
I hope those aren't disrespectful questions, I have so much respect for you💞 Have a blessed evening Sarah😊
I have an Aunt who is blind and I have asked the same question to her , if she'd ever had a dream that she could see in....She said YES! Which I found so fascinating!🥰
You’re a beautiful person!!🌹
bidets can solve most issues and some come with dryers so no more questions needed really. see section on dressing or undressing if she has talents to do this.. amazing girl!
It is Not Crazy, people have different types of disabilities and Life goes on as normal,
Because really what's normal?
We love you and respect you and we look up to you you are an amazing lady.
You do so much
And much people do so little
People want to know how astronauts use the toilet, so it's a common question. Your flexibility and use of your legs and feet make it totally sensible that this is just another ordinary task for you. Your dignity and your intimacy are paramount, and yet your explanation was perfect. Thank You. I tried clapping my feet like you did and I need to practice!!
You seem such a lovely person. And a great accent! Thank for making your videos. Regards from Tony, London.
Empowering! You’re beyond inspiring!
You are amazing. With the feats you've conquered no one should say I can't.
God bless you and your family . Happy to see how God bless your mom with a wonderful daughter 😍
Our darling young woman. Notwithstanding the many inquiries regarding this delicate subject matter, It's nobody's business unless it's to help another succeed in mastering this daily function common to all people living. I leave at 1:06. I will see you another day. Your loving fan, Steven Duane.
Bravo...vous mettez de la couleur dans ma vie qui était rendue en noir et blanc..
Dieu vous bénisse. .
Encore une fois MERCI..💓🏵🌻🌹🌲
This is a really nice series for you to start! And to start with this kind of topic is once again very courageous of you! People with arms certainly are curious because they likely have never imagined how they would do so many small but simple tasks with only legs and feet (or some other things using chin, shoulder, mouth, etc.). Actually I'm very glad you mentioned using your heels because this again is where non-foot users may lack some imagination in how things can be done.
I sure have questions to ask! And I will be honest and say right away that I'm glad you will talk about your perspective on foot fetishists because yes, I am one. I'll be very curious if you have tolerance or even acceptance of us and if that has changed over time, if you dated any or tried to avoid them, and how we treat you as a person (or fail to). How would you flirt with someone? Do you enjoy having your feet massaged or does that seem weird or unnecessary? Do you get tired of talking about feet and about being a foot user or do you enjoy talking about this unique aspect? I do notice that you put the English word "feet" in many of your video titles so I hope it is the latter! 😄 You are a very lovely woman and so I hope it is not rude to hope that you do also continue to show your beautiful and very talented toes doing the things the wonderful way you do them, sometimes "up-close and personal" as English speakers say!
On the opposite side, what about people you encounter who do not like feet or are uncomfortable that you use them in public settings? Do the "foot phobes" ask you not to touch something in a store or to move your feet off of a table or even to leave? And similarly, there are some cultures where showing the sole of one's foot or pointing a foot at someone is considered rude or even insulting--what would you do if you visited such places? Would you hope they can be tolerant of someone who only has feet to use?
You may also have experienced those who are attracted to amputees specifically... I can ask the same questions about your feelings about that group as with the foot fetish group. Are you ever concerned with showing your shoulders? Is it good, bad, or indifferent if someone put their hands on your shoulders like in greeting or in a conversation?
When you are in public places, should people offer to help you to hold, carry, or reach for something? Or would you prefer people do not ask to help unless you ask them? Do people annoy you by being curious and watching you, or do you like the attention? How should people greet you when you meet them? Would you ever shake someone's hand with your foot or would you prefer not to? Is hugging preferable even when meeting someone new? Do you have "pet peeves" about how you are often treated by others? Do you prefer to go mostly to specific places where you are already well known and have a comfortable reception?
Is your home working well for you and does it have anything you have changed to make it better or more comfortable for you? What do you look for when you look for a new home? Which room is the most important to suit you perfectly, or else you would not consider moving there (maybe the bathroom, or the kitchen)? When you travel, is it easy or sometimes challenging to use hotel amenities or other public facilities?
What is your self-image like? How do think you see yourself compared to how others see you? How do you see yourself in dreams, and do you dream about some of the things that challenge you in real life? Have you met other foot users who have lost their arms or who were also born without arms? If not, do you wish to? Did you have any guidance from the experience of other foot users when you were growing up or did you have to figure out everything along with your family? Did you ever get fitted for artificial arms and use them or did you know this was not something you would ever need from a young age? How was it for you interacting with other children and teenagers when you were growing up and in school?
I know you have already covered getting dressed, and you shared that jacket made specifically for armless women. But I think it would be interesting if you modeled some of your various outfits and talk about what about each works well for you and what does not--sometimes maybe you buy clothes that are less practical because you like the look of them? Maybe this is not even a taboo/adaptability topic but something you could do regularly to change and model 2-3 of your outfits in each video about your clothes and preferences. I noticed in some of your videos that a sleeveless top (like in your exercise video) looks like it would slip off if you didn't hold your shoulders up constantly--is that ever a problem? Do your shoulders get tired keeping clothes from slipping? And what about shoes? Do you like shoes, sandals, and boots and have many, or do you get just the minimum because you will be kicking them off as soon as you get home and go barefoot? Do you avoid going barefoot at home so that you do not need to wash your feet as often?
As an artist, do you always paint or have you tried other types of media (sculpting, drawing, using fabrics, etc.)? Did you have support learning art or was it hard to get teachers to work with you or understand how to teach someone with no arms?
I could probably ask more but maybe that is more than enough. You are such a dear heart to make the videos you already do and to add this regular series to that is fantastic! I look forward to seeing what you will talk about! I am happy to be a supporter of you and it is delightful to interact with you. Thank you for all you do to share things about your life and for being a wonderful person! 😊
Wow there 😳 😶
Soo, you suck toes eh?
Some great questions here.
So impressed, by your attitude and Charator. Your are so Beautiful, and a wonderful mom.
God Bless you 🙏
Thank you for this video . I have been trying to help a loved one learn to use the bathroom on their own. And feel the information you gave may help me help them.
Dear Sarah,
Hello from Melbourne, Australia.
I for one am not disappointed that you declined to give detail about such an intimate question. It's none of our business and it's also obvious you possess the necessary ability to manage all major issues in your life. Let's leave it at that. And thanks for doing some videos in English. My schoolboy French fails me totally when you speak in your native tongue and normal conversational speed.
I admire your bravery Sarah. Being a physically challenged person myself. I would find it hard to show how I do certain stuff.
One day, I'll manage to muster the courage to do so.
You're an inspiration.
God bless you.
U GO GIRL... UR MINDSET IS JUST AMAZING. AS LONG AS UR MIND WORKING GOOD U CAN DO ANYTHING!!!!
Nice listening to you in English.... love to watch you and I admire your courage and determination....
Flexibility must be amazing. I fell off the ladder and have gouged a section of my heel off. I am clumsy with my feel. I love your ability.
Sarah, I have nothing but respect for you! Some people ask me the same because of the way my arms are from my disability, Arthrogryposis. I just look surprised when I look down at my arms, like it's the first time me seeing something is wrong!! 😲
You are an inspiration! A brave brave woman. Lots of love to you super woman ❤️
I just tried to move my hair like her with my feet and I was completely unsuccessful lol. She really doesn't have a disability. She's gifted and purely talented. Hope to be as flexible as her one day.
Hi Sarah! I think your answer was clear enough, one doesn't always need the picture. Thanks for answering such personal questions.
P.S. The part of the foot you showed is called heel.
Your so amazing, u made me wow by your daily routine going so easy.. your such an inspiration to those people with disability.
I wonder who asked you this rude question but your answer just steals the show. Respect!
Your feet are your arms and you are able to do things that I could not. You are my inspiration.
I love your attitude, and strength.. That excent speech is crazy sezy..🤯🤯🤯
That is not something that came to mind. After watching you with your daughter, I knew you are able to care for yourself. You are such a wonderful Mama. Great job on the video though. It was definitely informative.
I love how you do the take 1. Thank you Sarah.
Un enorme respect a vous,t'es d une habileté incroyable ya même pas de mots pour sa mais mon cœur et avec toi
You mentioned the flexibility. Is that something that develops over a period of time of having to use your legs more? I think you are a ROCK Star and I am thankful to have come across your channel. I want my daughter to see women can do ANYTHING!
❤️ You are a blessed human being
You are very confident to talk about such things. I am not even confident enough yet to make a video, I am trying to build up my confidence.
Absolutely your an inspiration and Love your can do attitude, keep pushing forward,I too suffer from several disabilities although I have both hands,arms legs and feet my issues are Diabetic had my two big toes on my left amputated and all my teeth removed due to deadly infections, I relarned how to eat without teeth so far going on year (3) however the worst one is Grand Maui Seizures in my brain as I had major brain surgery and went from seizure meds 500 mg per day to 5,300 mg per day and still have major seizures I can still drive ok but if I go into seizure mode I immediately get out of traffic and stop the car till seizure subsides Im 6'5" weight 311 shoe size 15 EEEE and use a biratic Walker with wheels!
ok after you told has shown us your heel I kinda can imagine how armless people go to toilet. Thanks for the education. ❤️
Sarah, you are very brave. So impressed.
Congratulations for 1 lakh subs. Very very happy u r sooo Amazing
I admire you enormously and have the greatest respect for you; as you have reached out to us in your video.
You are a courageous and independent beautiful young lady. Thank you and God bless you.
Terry Wright
You are a strong beautiful women...Your amazing!
Hi, we're you born without arms, it very nice to see you doing everything on your own and so well. Much love to you and your daughter from Yasmin
for being a french speaking person your english is very good , normally the people from Brussels don't speak many languages, I am from the north so there we speak flemish, dutch , german, English and french, greetings saludos desde mexico
Not sure why this was in my recommend haha but I'm clapping my hands along with you! Thanks for sharing your life.
If any of yall are from belgium what's the traditional cleaning up method over there? I was trying to think about this I dont think the legs could bend in a way that would make it possible to wipe, but maybe they use bidet instead of toilet tissue. But then again shes able to do many things in ways that I wouldn't think of it's really amazing. I was trying to imagine how she got her toes done (must be at a nail salon I figured) and then she showed it in a video doing it herself and did it so well, I was so impressed.
Wow you are so amazing, so much admiration for you & for being such a beautiful, happy, peaceful person - & also your amazing flexibiltiy!!
Such a private matter- No need to share.
YOU are an inspiration. You could have let your disability get the better of you, but it obviously didn't.
God Bless.
I really admire you. I was watching your video and I got the bright idea to try using my foot to touch my face and I pulled my groin. Lol. I can only say you are amazing.
I tried to autofelate myself and I also nearly broke my neck! I got pretty close though.
Sarah you are such an inspiration to me. You are perfect as God mae you o be. Perfection s what you re. I love you, you are glorious and precious and perfectly made. God made a masterpiece as always!
With love and adoration,
Angelita
This is great I really enjoy how mature and honest and open minded you are about this topic thank you.... 👍🤙 oh and your absolutely beautiful
My mind instantly just went to a bidet! Still very insightful video! God bless💖
