The day I almost died | my amputation story! 

Isabelle Weall I was just wondering what the easiest and hardest things to relearn were and if there was anything that you gave up on trying to relearn and didn't bother trying to figure out or just got frustrated about so much that you just quit trying it figure out how to relearn

Isabelle Weall thanks for sharing your story! You are soo strong and beautiful 😍😍

Isabelle Weall Do you have a boyfriend?

how do you do your hair?

Isabelle Weall you have such a gorgeous smile and such a beautiful soul. There's a reason you're still here, your story no doubt will be helping so many people.

Mila matter*

I just watched your amputation story! Lol you're so sweet.

You are so sweet I watched your story and it touched me just like hers❤️❤️❤️

literally just watched ur vid before this lol you are so amazing and an inspiration

Kristie Sita I watched your story like yesterday

So weird! I watched your story yesterday! Love your channel keep doing you girl

Mary Atkinson wow. I wish the best for him ❤❤

Awesome!!❤❤

Mary Atkinson amazing :) all the best to your cousin!!!

That's remarkable! When life gave him lemons he made lemonade. I cant even fathom the strength and perseverance it would take to overcome a hurdle like that, but life is so precious. Good on him for making the most of it.

Wish your cousin the best of luck!!

Katia Crazy I read this as she said it

@The Josey Jungle Oof

@@Miki-sg6ep O Oo Oof Oo O

Very brave... positive attitude

You are crazy Indeed but in the most loveable way Katia

renee cassidy the holy Father worked through your son and you as his mother & his Father. That the holy Father's bless & peace be in you and your family

Wow, you know the sacrifices those PROFESSIONALS made to because skilled and educated? Healthcare workers bust their asses and then you ppl give the credit to your fairytale! If god gave a shit, you kid wouldn’t have gotten the illness to begin with!

I am so happy for you and your son and family❤️

Renee' Cassady nice to hear that he is well but hospital workers saved his life not god

Carlos Garcia Ruiz how did the hospital workers save his life when he died three times that’s not possible, what is possible is that god gave him a second chance

Abigail Davies i sort of feel like that i think that every thing thay can happen that's bad can happen to me. Cancer, amputation of any limbs, car accident, a shooting at my school, they all run through my mind every time i wake up. Im scared just to walk out of my room

Bailey4Evr stop watching the news :p

You’re also very insensitive...

HVDC rhyming very I n cghjk!Knuth Knight mm to buffer thy bjbfg

I often feel the same way. What helps is to think that these things happen rarely (percentage of occurrence is relatively low) and you can prevent most of them. It's really hard, but you have to try and live your life while you can. One day you won't be able to go out of your room for real. Either because you will be too old or... You get me right? :)

Mollie Same here! She’s a beautiful strong girl!

There’s this weird thing where people who go through traumatic events kind of normalize it in their brain so when other people act sympathetic they have no idea what you’re talking about lol. It’s something I’ve noticed about a lot of physically disabled people

Other youtubers: I got a papercut! **TRIGGERING**

Centaursixtysix yep I’m like that and people look at me like I’m some cold, heartless creature when talking about all my shit but in reality it’s life and there are worse things that happen🤷‍♀️

I agree with what everyone else says... And just tying on, I think it was also her age. This happened when she was 7...so I think when this happens to older people in their teens or older, you have more to remember about the life you've been living prior to the accident.... She's truly an inspiration though ❤

Jade Madden we need more people like you in the world

Jade Madden I had encephalitis when I was 21, now 40. I also had memory loss, had to learn how to walk, talk, tie my shoes

I had encephalitis in kindergarten 5years old. My grandmother told me that I had cold symptoms with a sore throat, so she kept me home from school that day. She said I came out of my room from a nap, and collapsed on the floor and stop breathing. She said she was doing CPR all the way until the ambulance got there. Then when I got to the hospital she says I kept flat-lining there. I was in a coma for a week. They never thought that I was going to make it. The doctor said it was a slim chance that I would survive because I had gotten so sick and I kept stop breathing, and they told my family that if I did make it I would most likely be a vegetable. They didn't expect me to ever be able to walk it was coming out from test that I was paralyzed from the waist down. Well I'm 37 years old I'm Walkin talkin, driving to and everything that the doctors never thought I would do. I don't remember anything during the time except for when I came home from the hospital. I was in a wheelchair, I do remember not being able to walk and always having to be pushed around in a wheelchair and I absolutely hated it. I remember going to therapy all the time learning how to use my hands again, learning how to walk going through speech therapy. Miracles can happen.

@@JessicaJasinski I'm so happy that you pushed through it all and had such a miraculous recovery, I wish you the best🙏🏻💙

Sophie Cooke that must of been horrible, I’m sorry for your loss ❤️

I'm so sorry for your loss

Meningitis is much like pneumonia-the term is ambiguous. There are many causes of both and neither is easy to diagnose .

I’m sorry for your loss

I am so sorry for your loss

sparrow10uk I think she was already in induced coma so would have woken up to all the changes

sparrow10uk I might be wrong though

Tbh she was probably feeling so ill and so out of it from just being taken out of the coma that she didn't really process the news. I could be wrong, but notice how she didn't mention getting the news or her reaction. It was probably more like waking up briefly, being told she was having a surgery but not really processing what that meant, and then going back under for it and really processing it post-surgery.

Kendra D, Last year my cousin, 6 years of age, developed a fever, and a mild case of meningitis. Luckily, after going to hospital, he recovered after a week, I’m so sorry about your nephew xx 💙💙💙♾♾♾💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️💛💛💛🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘🎀🎀🎀

Aha. Everyone always thinks I’m older than I am. But thank you and I hope you’re ok

Lindsay Gibson I agree

Lindsay Gibson she looks so much older than i do 😰 and i am 17 xD

Wow 14?! So very articulate and strong. ❤️

I agree, I thought Isabelle was much older than 14

It doesn't stop at the eyebrows.. look at that beautiful face!!

XxLuvroseXx omg ik 😂😍

XxLuvroseXx yeah! Ik

omg yes, and her skin is AMAZING!

No

She's beautiful

Yeah I agree.

She’s beautiful and an inspiration

No she is not like other girls . SHE IS ONE OF THE BEAUTIFUL GIRL EVER OK NOT LIKE OTHER GIRLS

I’m ur 230th like and I sooooooo agree!

Yeah it happens really fast... when I got bacterial meningitis the day I feel I actually got it I got a headache then a fever then I was throwing up this all happened within a few hours of each other and then I fell asleep and slept most the day and then I was fine all night I was eating and talking and laughing and I slept fine but then the next morning i felt like crap i got out of my bed and laid on my couch and kept zoning out and I was looking for another bed to sleep in because I felt really uncomfortable in my bed so I was going to get in my brother's bed but I didnt cause I knew he would tell me to get off so I left but he said that i said help before i left his room i dont remember it cause i zoned out but i laid back on the couch and i fell asleep or zoned out but i woke up again and my mom was asking me questions and trying to get my attention and she thought i was dehydrated and gave me water and then took me to the er and I said my neck was hurting and that's when my mom figured out I had meningitis and then the doc's told her I had bacterial meningitis and they had me flown to another hospital aka ohsu and I was there for about a week and I'm still recovering from that cause it just happened in February right before valentine's day that's my story though...

@@luk-ketgames2770 Did u have to get anything amputated

Why do you have a Eric herris profile pic?😂🤷🏼‍♀️

@@lindavos4968 I've had this profile picture for months and you are literally the first person to notice 😂 because i'm an edgy bitch, that's why

Hella Planty nice profile pic haha

sup reb

N Holland my brother had it as well, luckily it was viral and not bacterial

Is he getting access to language? (Coming from a deaf person, many deaf people don't have equal access to communication because their family doesn't realize it early enough)

Yeah that can happen as well, about three other things as well I think other than that, as well as coordination can be affected too, even epilepsy (or seizures) can be another.

LOOOL MY COUSIN HAD THE SAME ILLNESS AT THE SAME AGE they had to amputee his 2 legs and almost all his fingers

@@kevinoppenheimer9367 Aw that's so sad

SweetTea & A SmallTown the same thing happened to my older brother. They said another hour and he would’ve been dead. I’m glad you were lucky enough to be okay❤️

SweetTea & A SmallTown Same. I had it in 2014, right before winter break. I'm also extremely blessed to not have any side effects.

My mom also was about to leave right around the time I became unresponsive! Would've been a goner if my dad hadn't had texted her asking how I was!

How does one contact spinal meningitis

CMM You don't technically contact it as it's not contagious. Meningitis in it's basic form is a bacteria in your body and gives you no harm. However in some cases it goes haywire and creates the awful disease.

Well stated..

Andre Kaasik just say nice comment and leave omg

Andre Kaasik k ur the one embarrassing yourself lol

Why did she roll a glass over the spots?

Why did she roll a glass over the spots? What does that do

You can understand that you have meningitis.

Brandy Winn If a rash doesn’t fade under a glass, it can be a sign of blood poisoning (septicaemia) caused by meningitis

@@bk28054 wait what did glasses over the spots.😱

Stephanie Ponce first world probs. .

yep, it's amazing how much worse it could be.

I mean, sure you should feel great full but your still you and you know your weaknesses.

It's not a first world problem. It's a worldwide social problem. Human-made bullshit. If you have marks, salience..people will make you feel unconfortable by looking different at you, making fun of you etc. Don't forget that in africa you might end up at the stake for witchery because of your two coloured eyes. People are dumb. Well...most of them. At least a lot. That's something I don't understand. If there's a dog with three legs, maybe even a so called abomination people tend to say "Oh he's so cute...so cuddly...i want to take care of him." etc. But as soon as there are people with similar problems everything changes for the worst. I don't look different at disabled people. I don't even look actually. Not for longer as I would observe anybody else. If there's saliva dripping from somebodies mouth i still talk to him/her instead pretending he's/she's not in the same room. I don't talk "about" the person if i can talk to him directly. And of course only if i want to. If it's a real conversation. I'm not trying to comfort someone just because he's diabled etc. I i don't have anything to say i just shut up. And we all have problems with our confidence sometimes. But yes, some people have a bitter faith. Having no limbs is indeed restricting you. But, and that's what i think, the psychological problems you have to face regarding the stupid people around you could be also very hard to deal with. And that should not be. And Stephanie: there nothing more boring than a "perfect" body. I don't want to know my counterpart by looking at him once. I want to explore something knew every day. Well...at least over the first few weeks or months. ;) Having "some" cellulite is pretty "womanly". It's attractive. To a certain extend of course. But i know what you we're trying to tell us. And you're right. Some of us were more fortunate than others and having thin hair for example shouldn't give us sleepless nights. Could be worse. Way worse.

This is low key really incentive

She Realy amazing and strong

she's 14?? wow, i thought she was older. and here i am, older, still looking like im 10 lol

Evie Johnston wait wait wait... is she fourteen???? Like, 14 years old??? Just fourteen?? Omg she so freaking young! I could swear she was much older

Jacky Dröscher did you have ABS? Because I was born with half my toes and I have ABS

Xacobe Lopez Rodriguez ...Really? You didn't do the math during the video..?

ChyloeReece that isn’t the point of this comment the point of the comment is saying how she is so mature for her age

@@paulamayrs4083 yes sir

I'm sorry for your loss

jas we just feel lucky for having less invasive disabilities or just being healthy without any experience like this. The feeling is good because we can really stop, think for a minute and appreciate what we have. But I agree with you, these are not the proper manners to express that. I have vaginal/pelvic floor issues. I really miss having a healthy vaginal system. I have been through depression 3 years straight. But seeing this kind of videos makes me feel like I'm so blessed for what I have, and this people who's in "worst" conditions are so blessed too for being so strong every day.

As someone without disability, I found some of the comments very insensitive. All the “I’m so glad I’m not you” remarks are at the expense of this beautiful young woman sharing her harrowing experience in this video. It doesn’t hurt to take a moment and assess how others may perceive your words/actions.

Jackie Renee Thank you 💕 I agree

T. D You don’t have to bring others down to build yourself up.

yeah, but they don't have to comment those thoughts on her video.

Lol what

That would be so empowering to have amputee models!

ROMAK 47 RIGHT????

Yess she is so pretty! 🥰

S. Kreg there are amputee models......

Pretty much same thing happened to me. I was a small toddler and the only reason I didn't die was because a friend of the family who was a picu nurse was watching me and wouldn't let the doctors discharge me without running the tests.

mrsChocolate5 same way th my mum but we went on holiday and then the doctors there said u have meningitis and was in hospital for 2 months but she is fine and everything now but can’t have lots of medication now

Glad he's ok. Tell him he's a strong young man ( I'm not sure how old he is, or if he's older tell him he's strong in general.)

What were the symptoms that made your aunt see a difference with his cold symptoms?

my.young ucle died after having meningitis

Okay. Complementing my eyebrows is the best kind of complement 😂😂

For real though! Eyebrow goals! I have to paint mine on 😂

I was thinking the SAME thing!

MarinaDoulis I know ❤️😭

yessss. she’s gorgeous all around though, what a beaut

What accent is it?

@@sar4665 It sounds like a bit of British to me, but I may be wrong

S AR it’s a British accent. She’s from a place called Derbyshire. That’s Derbys accent

She's English, from the Midlands. Accents vary a lot in England, each county has it's own accent pretty much.

I'm not because I barely understand it

sabrina figueroaa and when u woke up u haven’t lost anything?

​@@moaningcicle1839 She lost her arms and legs due to Septicemia which is a blood infection. Meningitis itself did not cause her to lose her limbs.

GOD BLESS YOU BEAUTIFUL SABRINA..💚💙

God Bless you as well glad you’re still here

Me toooo

Thank you ☺️

Isabelle Weall What’s assembly? I live in America so I don’t know. Also love your video and channel.😁

@@hannahvasquez2501 how do u type if u don't mind me asking I'm just curious I have jia and been in hospital for 1 week with a flair up

You are obviously not accepting or understanding the posting of her story with such careless disregards to her situation. It's a messege of acceptance , true courage and inspiration to the so many individuals that having a full healthy functional physical body complain about life.

@@ylnodnaenoeht everyone feels pain and your the one who's carelessly disregarding.ITheirs always going to be someone who has it worse but its human and healthy to be able to vent. Of course people complain ab out life, would you suggest that people just hold it in so your sencapibilitity of who deserves to complain and who doesnt arnt offended

@@veritaskairos9466 you are misrepresenting my statement. When I read :" I lost my 4 limbs and it's whatever 😁" with a happy face I don't believe it's something to put a happy smiling face ... like it's funny. You don't know me or knoww if I'm missing legs, arms or a loved one has...maybe a child. It takes great courage to display a story like hers. I put myself in the person who put the video...reading the comments with a happy face crying of happiness...that's all. Only she can subject me, not you.

Natasha Davey she’s legit a survivor being brave isn’t even on the table...she’s just made it happen....ain’t no handbook for surviving just good care and a super duper strong will.

I know. I guess you remember traumatic things ?! Thank you so much though 💗

I can rememeber my 3rd birthday and my 2nd christmas. I find it strange when people can't remember their childhood. I am now 27 and can remember my whole childhood vividly. Nothing before the age of 2 ofcourse.

Stressmess !!!!!! I early remember falling off the bed and ripping face open when I was in the 2nd grade but I don't remember what I had for lunch yesterday When thingd like this happen to people it sticms

Darcy The Awesome I was thinking this exactly, they were so young too. I could see that being scary to a child

Thank you ☺️

ugly girls stay weak always!

Wow! Great support for someone whose limbs have been amputated! Keep it up and remember: whatever goes around comes around.

Kevin Mystic Mac Lee dumb poop she not ugly

david martinez no one said she was

It was horrible but I’m not super light hearted about it if that’s the right way to phrase it

Yes, lovely accent ! I like her nose too...

Ada Noel HEY. Be nice. You should spread positivity instead of whatever that was.

Ada Noel ignore this person. They obviously have so many insecurities with themselves they feel the need to bash on other people, just remember that when you encounter bullies. They need help and are feeling so bad about themselves they need to bully others.

I thought you said her _accident_ was adorable for some reason and I was like wtf

Ada Noel Your personality is uglier

Miriam Patterson so sorry for your loss 😥❤️ xx

DanielleandBerry Equine thank you, just such a shame how life can be so cruel 😔💖xxx

Btw, i had had the vaccine for meningitis but i think mine was a new, rare one they dont do a vaccine for

Lydia W there’s a newer meningitis vaccine that includes serotype B that came out in 2014. Now young people can be protected from more types of bacterial meningitis..

Buck Grint I could never date a girl with no legs cos I have a foot fetish

Alanna Crites mine has one n, alana

i have the same name lol

abs gorj isn't she just❤

I can't believe it! I thought she was older than me

Right I was like wait? And I’m like what? The I literally typed out 7 2010, 8 2011 etc etc etc, and I’m like WHAT she’s younger than me, it took me about 5 minutes to get it. I would’ve figured that she’s at least 20, not because of her looks but because of her maturity.

Aweee thank you so am I

Jessop they mean the same thing

This may be the hardest thing you will ever have to go through but just know you are not alone and I admire you and your attitude! You are incredible and I know youre gonna kick it's ass and emerage a total badass out of this. I am so proud of you! Keep it up, you are an inspiration to all.

@Eric Cartman it was a nice comment that was respectfully said. Clearly it was an extra thought and theres no need to be so critical

U jealous she said it b4 u?

@Eric Cartman hey, being good looking may have very deep consequences in this superficial world

Aha thank you

Tianna Black I thought she said bone

Tianna Black p

pretty sure she said bone...

3:40 It sounds like bum tbh

I think she said bum. Sounds like she said bum with a slight northern accent.

Yeah!!! I thought she was 20+

She was 99% close to death when she was 7. It is normal she appears mature.

She apoears mature because she is mature inside. She is wise, has build self-confidence, she overcome the amputation s very well. Some people will go in depression just for being fat , short, skinny. She is like sunshine!

Isn't she 18 if she got sick in 2010 when she was 10? :/

I read in other Videos that they do that so RU-vid doesnt recommend them these Things Because *add some bullshit excuse*. They could just NOT like at all but dumb people csnt think that far

Little Blue What? Why shouldn’t someone dislike a video? The option is there for a reason, respect people’s opinions.

@@noodle2269 Opinion on a little Girl telling how she lost all limbs? Wtf did you dislike on that? Wasnt it fancy schmancy enough? Wtf made you dislike it rather than NOT pressing anything?! There is a special place in hell for you We all know it. Good Luck.

Little Blue Did I say I disliked the video? Making assumptions and yet you think you can justify your lack of an open mind? What does it matter if she has no limbs? Here, you are belittling this girl by implying she doesn’t deserve dislikes because she’s an amputee, thus meaning she deserves pity. She’s a normal girl and wishes to be treated like one, and therefore is open to likes/dislikes. A dislike could mean someone doesn’t like the intro/editing/audio quality/literally ANYTHING. It doesn’t necessarily relate to her as an individual. Please grow up.
