Momma H Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 So, I have a step son who is 21 and is quadriplegic. It happened when he was 1 from the DPT shot (let's not go there!) He does not get out much and is quite lonely so my husband and son came up with a little idea to make a fun video of him to maybe get people who understand his condition contact him to just connect a bit. He is a very sweet kid who just wants to meet friends maybe who are also handicapped. I say that because he has really wanted to meet some girls and he is not having much luck on eharmony let me tell you. It does not have to be girls but if you know of anyone who you think would like to email my stepson, that would be great. His name is Daniel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN_EC4XhqIA My son who made it LOVES film making. He learned a lot about how hard it is making this film. He used a green screen and it was challenging! (some of the best school he did all year!) The ghost hand in the superman part cracks us all up but we had just 1 day so no reshooting and this is his first green screen film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma H Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 Thank you all so much for your kind words and support! It really means a lot and I pray he meets some buddies (and maybe a nice girl in a similar situation may find him):001_smile:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloversandlions Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Daniel must be a terrific young man, and both he and your son get lots of kudos for making this video. I hope he hears from plenty of new friends! I tweeted the video, but I only started my twitter account last night, so I don't have followers, lol. Maybe there are some others who can get this more views. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCyndiGirl Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Great video! You may want to screen the comments he gets on YouTube. They can be SO INCREDIBLY RUDE AND CRUEL sometimes. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oak Knoll Mom Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Thanks for sharing this with us! I shared it on facebook and google+. Your step-son might be interested in Capernaum. It's a Young Life ministry to disabled teens and young adults. There are several groups in Colorado. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
