A 20-YEAR-OLD woman has a rare genetic disease that means she is regularly mistaken for a child half her age. Michelle Kish, from Illinois, USA, was born was Hallermann-Streiff syndrome, a condition so rare that at the time of her birth there were only 250 known cases worldwide. Her symptoms include distinct round, childlike facial features and a form of dwarfism that means Michelle only comes up to just above her sister’s waist. But despite requiring round-the-clock medical care, Michelle has flourished into a warm, bubbly adult, who loves playing on her iPad and hanging out with her dog Piper. Michelle now dreams of following in her sister Sarah’s footsteps and finding a boyfriend - ideally a long-haired man who is in touch with his emotions.

The way she reacted when she got a friend.......I'd love to be her friend
The Creative Bookworm yeah
me too
Me too
Yep...
Me too she looks pretty chill
“She knows she’s different but that doesn’t bring her down,” this lady has my respect
❤️
@@butter5144 Genetic stuff happens
I read this just as the video was saying it lol
AXOLOTL PROFILE PIC
Animals don't care what we look like.
Dogs don't judge humans the way we judge each other.
So true, I remember some tv show or comedian saying, they love me (pet) more than my family lol....
Yes they do. If a dog gave birth to a puppy as disabled as her the, mother would let the puppy die.
IM A DOG TOO!!!
@@XxKLOWNYBEASTxX nice
Thats because they dont have the ability to do it. Its like a robot who’s programmed to love you, thats not real love. When a human loves you is because that person truly loves you, you dont need to give them food so they can love you, they’re not programmed to love you, yet they love you
4:19 " *what I look for in a boyfriend? long hair. period* "
🤣
Love this 😉
Garou Human Monster watch out for karma bud
Agreed.
Garou Human Monster really dude? Come on.
She seems like the nicest person
Ik
Why is this in my recommended
Wait the
furious madnes i know i know
Friend I’m way too young
" I think I'm different from the average 20 yrs old , but that's okay " loved this sentece
When she said:
Im a different 20 year old but.. Thats ok
That warmed my heart
If you saw me and I said the same ...add 30 , you would not say the same LOL
this breaks my heart 💔😭
brought tears to my eyes
@@graciellecabato5455 That’s how God made her
She brings tears to my eyes and strength in my heart. I wish her all the best in life, bless her.
Bless her :(
me to :)
i mean bless her to :(
me to🌻
Just Imagine you’re being depressed and she comes in with the questions
“Are you ok?”
“Is there anything I can do for?”
“You know i care for you”
“I love you”
I would be so happy because I knew someone was actually caring for me
Are you ok?
Is there anything I can do for?
You know i care for you
So sweet
I'd cry due to being scared
her spirit is so pure. i would 100% be her friend, i’m not even kidding.
alberts minion who wouldn’t want to be her friend?
alberts minion I'm praying for her
alberts minion same I wish I could meet her
Exactly!
Yessssssssss I would to 😁😁😁🤗🤗🤗
She’s so adorable and so sweet. How come I don’t meet people like her in real life 🙁
Yeah
No kidding
I know what u mean
she looks hideous, dont even lie and she has a disability man, mind of a child. All you can do is talk to a woman looking 70yo, acting like shes 9, cant do anything else. So dont act surprised
*"What I look for in a boyfriend? Long hair. PERIODT."* _4:19_
@coffee with two sugars please ???
@coffee with two sugars please I’m not sure who deleted your comment and I said sorry because I misunderstood you
I think she may not look like all of us but she has a heart 100 times clearer than us in age of 20♥️♥️
Shashank JAMWAL yes
Oui
Not really, she acts like any other 20 year old adult
Agreed
She has a heart 100 times clearer than "most" people I've come across
Her mom constantly correcting herself to say young lady shows just how much Michelle's family cares for her. Her family doesn't want Michelle to feel trivialized and that's so important. I love this family, I love Michelle, and I love Piper.
Why is it always the nicest people who have bad stuff happen to them... She seems so kind and cute I just wanna hug her!

Guy : * touches her *
Michelle : yeeted the guy ' s
“I want a boyfriend with long hair”
YASSSSS SIS PERIODTTT
LoL
I thought she meant a boy that has periods
Huh?
@@TheBonusBlake
Trolololol
My mom hates boys with long hair so that’s out for me lol 😂
I love her personality, she’s so bright...
HowKidsBecomeKids that's my name
I lie
HowKidsBecomeKids I agree! She’s so kind and I totally wanna be her friend!
HowKidsBecomeKids agreed
Thank God someone who has an actual honest compliment in this god forsaken comment section full of delusional people. Thank you, glad to know ppl like you still exist.
She is a really brilliant role model. She is an inspiration.
she actually sounds like a great person
True. I'd be her friend in a heartbeat. 😊
CHEESE IZMYLIFE Same.
Adam Von Badam not
CHEESE IZMYLIFE
Same.
She looks like Chucky
I never understand the thumb down on videos like this. Beautiful, strong young lady. God bless her
Samay Alvarez they meant too click the like button
People who disliked are having their phone upside down
They couldn't see because they were flowing with tears and they Accidently clicked dislike.
Maybe they dissliked because it's to sad but that girl is so cute and if I could I would erase the dislke button
Kyra Spencer Do you mean the dislike button you would erase?
She's the sweetest person I've ever seen. I hope she's doing well
Her: *always happy and cute*
Me: *always sad cause very I am very ugly*
No darling you aren’t ugly, don’t say that
You are beautiful honey! All are beautiful just like you! Be proud of your beautiful self! Be confident 💜💜💜
Dude when I see stuff like this, it really makes me realize how fortunate how I am.
shut up. I don't think you realize that that phrase is insensitive.
shaen frum bozzfed Shut up? You're declining his freedom of speech. He has the right to express what he thinks and you shouldn't deny it with your fake solidarity!
FaZe Ghost
It’s true though. Those that were born without conditions like this one should realize that they should be grateful. If the lady we watched could choose between those disorders and being normal what do you think she’d choose? Exactly, you should relish in your normalities and even those that aren’t normal should find a way to be more comfortable in ones skin.
Nicholas Kotlarczyk just so true
Well the chances are extremely slim so it is not anything to do with fortune
I feel bad. But at least she is still happy
Rev Vid True
Rev Vid bro I couldn’t stop crying man
Big 14 bro same
Rev Vid same I wanted to cry
She said "one with long hair........... Period"
I started dying laughing
This was the sweetest video
The girl seems so kind, and her differences don’t get to her
Ya they do
Omg her voice is sooooooooooo cuuuuute😍😍
Her facial expressions are really cute! That dog is 10/10 too, I'm sad I don't know this so kind and sweet lady.
I cried and that is true god bless her
she’s so sweet i’m literally crying
Michelle is so kind, caring and smart
she seems like she would be such a fun person to be friends with. she’s so sweet omg :)
Agree
Riverdale Diaries yeah
Yep
i wanna be her friend :(
Riverdale Diaries agreed
She honestly has the most stunning smile I have ever seen.
i just wanna give her a big hug
Her smile is beautiful
E1ektra yeah for all the wrong reasons 😂 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Grimlock 520 how would you feel if she read your comment? She could be crying, she could hide that beautiful smile of hers, all because you are a no good bully! Why dont you go back to kindergarten to learn about a thing called: *HUMAN DECENCY*
I don't believe you
I wish I had as much confidence as this young woman I’m one year younger then her. She Taught me a very important lesson is to love yourself.
No one is perfect, she is beautiful. Never talk about no ones medical condition! You do not have to be born with a medical condition, you can have any accident the can give you an accident. Accept people for the way the look, because they are still human like us, their good hearts makes them beautiful. God Bless you Sweetheart. Love Lorinda
She is perfect tho
Her voice is so cute!!!😊👍❤️💕
I know right
Casa Diodati well ur being kind but also she’s 20 and if she wasn’t different u probably wouldn’t of said that... idk maybe I’m wrong but yh xO
So true
IKR
Casa Diodati you know that is a pretty rude thing to say to Michelle your saying she is a child
She is still happy and she seems like an awesome person
I really want to be friends with her
Her voice makes me feel warm inside its so soothing for some reason
true
She is very sweet and seems a very gentle, loving girl. I agree about the voice. It's like a little bird.
Cool Kid d really you would be friends with this person even though you know you cant he with anyone else, come be real
She's awesome! I hope she'll always be able to live her best life and that people who need medi-care and medi-cal waivers to survive can keep them. It's basic human dignity.
There's nothing this woman does better than put a smile on everyone's faces. You're right, Michelle. You're not sassy.
I love how she stays positive and happy she's so beautiful i love her so much ❤

Me too
Any volunteers to be her friend or boyfriend? Leave a like if you will. I’m liking definitely.
No, no you would most probably not.
Ok guys let’s be honest right now. We all know that she’s not gonna get a boyfriend also I’m not trying to be mean.
Omar Mora I would not say that. But she will most definitely not got a "highschool-dream-boyfriend".
I’d love to be her friend omg she seems like she’d be so supportive and funny !
Mars Tea Maybe. But she has something about her (my personal view) that bothers me. I could not be very good friends with her. And neither me nor you could be her boyfriend.
I was very upset, and this came up in my notifications and this brought me joy, thank you 💞
adorable i respect this so much!
This girl is freaking AWESOME !!!!
I KNOW I LOVE HER ALREADY!!!
Girl??? U mean young lady right? XD
Unsuitable Media yea she is
Gerardo Herrera nah I say girl to even 40 year olds lol
Unsuitable Media lol I would to xD
I am glad she understands its okay that she has a genetic disease, and by the She IS SUPPERRR CUTEEEE!!!!
Not the most attractive, but looks nice to be with her
Jelly Cat better to be honest than lie and pity her
At least in most context
Amy Gunzenhauser that’s horrible
Amy Gunzenhauser that is rude not cool
@@amygunzenhauser9947 sweetie, she's not a mirror. I recommend you go get some glasses or go to the ophthalmologist.
This young woman makes my day everytime!! Shes an energy bomb!! 🥰
She's so beautiful strong and kind 😍 .I hope god blesses her for all of eternity (and I hope she gets that boyfriend she wants one day!)
Her laugh and smile makes me so happy
Michelle's personality is actually adorable
Y E A M Y Q U E E N
She’s a Beautiful person Bless Her🙏❤️
Yeah ikr. They should totally nominate her for Miss Universe title. She might have a chance.
ShyFeli no stop you can say she has a beautiful personality but don't lie and say shes attractive physically
ShyFeli 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
People just say it to make her feel better I think 💭
Deshun Blazin no
Omg i came from that video of her saying PERIODT
What a sweet, intelligent and confident girl Michelle is. I wish her and her lovely family all the very best.
One like. One friend for her! She is SO DAMN CUTE
Michelle just made me smile her smile is contagious she so beautiful
MICHELE'S MINI VLOGS she is🙃
MICHELE'S MINI VLOGS I hate her
+Felix Ramberger Why would you hate her?
Felix Ramberger Why in the world would you even post that you hate the girl well I hate you Felix
MICHELE'S MINI VLOGS dont lie to her
I love how she’s so positive and funny. I would love to be her friend!
that girl is an amazing human being. God bless her. the world needs more like her. it would be a better place.
I love her."PERIOD" no seriously
PERIODT
Lmao

ALISSON LOPEZ PREACH
On the inside..
DESHUN BLAZIN MUCH? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
@骑士黑暗 cuz we keep them as pets and don't eat them as food. jk lol.
@@Ronjontcb THIS IS SO MEAN
I’d feel so lucky if I were you friend, Michelle. You are awesome!
She is pure gold.
The triumph of love and spirit over the matter.
What she teaches to the world is priceless.🤲❤
She seems like such a fun person to hang out with, I hope if Michelle ever does get a romantic partner that they treat her well.
tanayjah white WOW. THAT'S REALLY RUDE! PAY HER SOME MERCY
+tanayjah white oml what you first said just sounded worse than it came out I'm sorry. Just word it differently next time
Worthless Ace ya she does
Worthless Ace yup
i agree
I feel bad that she doesn’t have a date.
She’s a strong woman, and she seems persistent. I wish her the best of life.
Unfortunately most men wont be able to look past her condition or her looks. I hope one day she'll be able to find that rare good guy who will sweep her off her feet and make her so happy
Also don't forget he MUST have long hair for our precious babe. PERIODT
Get real! SMH
It might be mostly because she looks and sounds like a child, so instinctually most people's minds go to the feeling of cuteness, not romantic feelings.
Hey everyone, Michelle is a personal friend of mine and she is suffering from congestive heart failure at the moment. I am trying to get #getwellMichelle trending so that she will be contacted by the Green Bay Packers at Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago. If everyone will can tweet to make her dreams come true, please do!
Michelle is a testimat that your attitude is most important. Not the circumstances. May other people who are struggling today find this video and may it open their eyes to see how blessed they really are. May God bless you Michelle and your loving family with continued strength, peace and love.❤️❤️❤️
God bless this woman 😇
Squash King child*
Shane Nguyen she’s 20?
MoorsBoors lol I wanted to see people correct me lmao
Shane Nguyen Ah, at least you aren’t an idiot
MoorsBoors Thank you very much, kind sir!
I don't understand how people can dislike this. No heart.
Jackson Turner easy, just click the button
Jackson Turner it’s their opinions not yours
A dislike doesnt mean anything, keep that in mind
I didn't ask for a tutorial, I'm saying that that its so sad to have the nerve to dislike something like this.
Jackson Turner their opinion
She is one of the cutest and best people I have ever seen. She is so so so nice! She is adorable. She is so independent and strong. I am so proud!!!
This whole video made me smile 😊
She is so pretty no one can let you down girl stay strong ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
No one:
14 YO girl:
Noooooooooooo 99 like I want 100
dont lie please she is not pretty
@@amygunzenhauser9947 & dark apple, how dare you. This woman is adorable and probably one of the sweetest women on earth. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
@@entjuicebox541 Why? It's the truth. She isn't pretty. But she has a gorgeous personality! And how dare you to say something like that to a person who is telling the truth? *You should be ashamed of yourself*
Beautiful soul.
+Name You don't have to have looks to get a man.
Joannie Chorjel I like what she said about the rides
+Korben Parris i like you
Can't say the same for her physical look though.
TheBeauty
Yeah you do
I love this girl! God bless you Mechele and family. Stay strong!
Her mom keeps misaging(?) her. "Teenager" "child"
Yeah cuz she's an adult not a teenager
Child in this instance means a son or daughter regardless of age; you are still your parents' child.
I really feel bad for this 20 year old lady and I don’t get why people who have no heart and decide to call her mean names is just not right cause it’s really difficult to live a life like this like you can’t even imagine of what she is going through but god bless her she’s very positive and an awesome person
I don't feel bad for her. She is way happier then most ppl those days. She makes the best of it. Sure, she says she is lonely sometime, but she gets over it and goes on positive. She is such a happy energy :)
I agree, although, she is an amazing, energetic, kind happy person. Of course, it’s obviously hard for her, but, always think about how happy she is. I’m so glad somebody noticed how hard people’s lives are, and that you actually took the time out of your day to type this. I am very grateful for the people like her in the world, and the people like you. I;m sorry, I get very emotional towards things like this. Thank you for ready this.
people like this should be looked up to we should aspire to be more like them
@Amber Chloe isn't that great!
Deviant- Ayeni Ike
She's such a nice person so kind and generous wish her the brightest future 😀
I’m sending her all the love!!❤️❤️

You are such an amazing and wonderful young woman, who is an inspiration to all of us. I love your joy despite your medical concerns. May God bless you, and may your dreams come true. 🤗❤️🙏🙏🤗💕
U can tell she came from a home with so much love, caring, respectful and no judgmental....i would love to meet her 1 day. ❤❤❤❤
I just want to give her a hug💗
No you don't. No one would want to hug her. It's not good to lie
Troll
Everyone needs a hug
She is so so so cute. I cried watching this that how she feels when everyone around her is normal😭😭😭 she has really so cute voice. Love you
I love watching videos like this because the comments are always so supportive and kind. Comments like these are what remind me that there is still good in the world.
THIS WOMAN IS LITERALLY WHAT I NEED IN MY LIFE.
This woman is my inspiration.Whenever I feel sad I think about her and I think she is happy even though she has a disease so I should be happy even though I’m sad
She is inspiring....but don't knock your sadness because there is illness. To paraphrase Jesus, "The sick will always be with you..." You are your own person.
Sumeya A Shes always so Happy
I love her sense of humor
I smiled the whole time watching this. what a sweetheart
Born uniquely special & beautiful where it truly counts. Love her personality, attitude. ❤️
