Itcanonlybeme commented:

"A campus must be designed to specifically accommodate people with disabilities. The campus should only be used by persons with disabilities, so you don't feel stigmatised when trying to get a higher education."

Prettyboypoli applauded the student:

"You inspire my faith. I wish I saw your videos early in life. I'm not quadriplegic, but I'm physically challenged after a motor vehicle accident. I allowed my condition to prevent me from succeeding in school."

Pamela was inspired by the woman:

"Giving me hope as a young mum with a child who has CP when most doctors said he wouldn't talk or write, but he's pushing through against what the previous doctors said, next year he will be going to mainstream school... đź«‚đź«‚đź«‚You gained a follower."
