before we begin i'd like to issue a challenge to all of you i guess
oh i thought it was going to be a challenge for me no i'm pleasantly surprised i can give
you a challenge also no thank you if this video hits two million views i will never
cut my hair or shave my face no revoked ever it's not gonna hit two million views i'm gonna
start beginning videos with really ridiculous like view count challenges and i will stand by my word
if this if this video gets 10 million views hannah will record and upload a video of her singing the
entirety of the hamilton soundtrack backwards oh my god what the heck 10 million views i stand by
my words sure sure okay that's the whole thing fine with me the entire two and a half three hours of
it what will you do if it gets a hundred thousand views a hundred thousand views that's not very
many that's like i mean that's attainable what are you gonna do if this video gets 100 000 views
i will continue to appear in future videos for this channel if it does not i will not
it will become soley hannah's project
and i will fade into the background there you go
all right this adds a level of spice to what we're doing your life is in our hands so okay
play it wisely okay shall we actually begin now yeah hannah what are we talking about
we are going to answer one of the probably most common questions that at least i receive yeah
you get this a lot i get this a lot like just out of the blue and also if i ever talk about
like anything happening to me like i had a migraine last week and i put my instagram story that i
had woken up with a migraine like you know whatever and a bunch of people respond back
asking like what does shane do when you don't feel good yeah and like i started answering
people but there were like hundreds of them so i just decided we'll just make a video about it yeah
yeah it's a relevant question i mean hannah is my primary caregiver so you know if she falls ill
yeah we have to figure something out yeah um it's also that time of year i mean put aside the fact
that we're living in a pandemic and you know every sore throat could mean the end it's also
the time of year when illness begins to become a more common part of our lives so you know every
fall hannah and i get a little bit more mindful about how we're feeling because one of us getting sick affects both of us
in either direction
so our sick plan is basically no no no no no no i have a few ideas that i want to run by you what's
these are new ideas that we did not talk about prior to filming and then we have like your plan for how
it's going to work but uh-huh i think i have some better ones i've been training on chloe this is a
bit of a surprise i've been training chloe to lift me and transfer me into bed so that when hannah
eventually inevitably falls ill and is unable to lift me can we stop calling it falls ill and
just say get sick or feel sick so anyway i think this will you know allow me to just get in and
out of bed which is like a major thing that you probably can't do when you're sick
CHLOE BED
CHLOE BED... okay well that idea is probably not gonna work it's a work in progress. has she ever actually
completed a task she's she's improving a lot uh idea number two this one is a bit more of a reach
um not as realistic as chloe becoming my eventual caregiver oh boy we will randomly select one of
you each year all of your names will whether you like it or not be put into a random drawing one
of you will be chosen to become hannah's backup now if you are chosen for this esteemed position
you will be required to fly here on your own bill uh anytime that hannah is under
the weather or suspecting that she is under the weather you will learn my care and you will allow
me to call you hannah for the duration of the time that you're here caring for me i think it
will make us both feel a bit more comfortable and hannah won't feel like she's being you know
replaced? Shane i don't i really don't think that these ideas are helpful or practical
are you done no i have a third idea that i just thought of and that is called the no
care plan where when hannah falls ill we just stop doing my care and i live in my
chair in a constant state of awakeness and unfed-ness unbathroomed-ness i just go in
my pants for the length of her illness and i think that one i'm not as inclined to adopt anyway no we
should actually tell them we should so generally like 19 minutes and just fake answers your plans
hi there i would now like to take a quick moment to thank the sponsor of this video source america
the sponsor of this video is a little different than our normal sponsors i'm not going to be
telling you about a product but rather the amazing work of this awesome non-profit so source america
is a non-profit organization that partners with hundreds of other non-profit organizations all
throughout the us to help people with disabilities get hired for real jobs and to help businesses
realize the value and the opportunity of hiring workers with disabilities the month of october
is national disability employment awareness month and so source america is really trying to get the
word out there that workers with disabilities are essential workers they are your doctors
your delivery drivers your fast food employees people with disabilities work all kinds of jobs
i have been a working person with a disability for over 10 years now i can tell you that
much of society often overlooks my value as a worker i cannot tell you how many times i would be
in a business meeting and not be taken seriously because people see my wheelchair and
they instantly assume oh he could never be the real manager of this nonprofit or uh i'll be
at a book signing and someone will come up to me and they'll say did you write this book
all by yourself and i'm like i'm an author and they'll be like and did you draw the pictures
too so that kind of stuff is really frustrating and we need to change the narrative about people
with disabilities in the workforce and source america is doing that so if you're a person
with a disability and you are looking for work visit our link below that i'm gonna put if you
are a business owner and you're interested in hiring these essential workers, people
with disabilities go to the link below all that info is there or you can follow source america
on instagram we'll also put that below we love the work that source america does it's so important
so check them out and uh find out how you can help thank you
um i have only ever gotten sick one time
when i was you know shane's caregiver knock on that wood right there
louder louder!
i don't want chloe bark oh yeah who's at the door? yeah um and that was
it was kind of recent it was about a year ago yeah we were living in my parents house at the time
after i graduated before we bought this house and we went to our favorite mexican restaurant at the
mall of america i don't think it was their fault i don't think it was food poisoning
i ate my favorite fajitas i still haven't gone back but i will i will work up the courage one day
over a year yeah ate my favorite fajitas they're amazing um and then that night i didn't digest
them they just sat in my stomach it came back out it wasn't food poisoning it really wasn't
it was it was a me problem and um i became extremely ill yeah that night like i didn't
actually like throw up or anything that night the whole night i was just really nauseous yeah
i mean it was like your face was drained you were like a zombie. i felt horrible yeah you were
like not not of this earth no at that point you were barely with us like me and your mom and your dad
were in the kitchen like "is she gonna make it? what's going on?"
and nothing was happening i just felt horrible i had the worst stomach ache so i just went to bed
and i was like sorry i'm actually going to bed now and i went to sleep and i remembered
you and my mom coming in my room in our room at like eleven yeah and being like
hannah like are you gonna get up and i just like was not responsive
and so my mom put shane in bed and like got him settled yeah poor me i was just asleep
it kind of forced us to figure out that plan yeah so i sat down with li- well i was already sitting
i had talked to liz um and i was just like hey like uh are you okay to kind of help out for the
next day or two while she's not feeling well and obviously liz was like yeah overjoyed well not
overjoyed she wasn't happy you were sick but she was like yeah absolutely um and she had already
taken care of you once yeah when you abandoned me for a week that was the other time that liz
learned how to do my care i broke up with shane for 10 days and left i flew away out of the state
no i'm just kidding i went to a training trip in florida for 10 days yeah and during that time
and so my mom took care of shane and then your brother came out and visited and helped yeah
part of the time so the basic answer is that we have had conversations and one experience
with our family here about will you help out if hannah's ever not able to and they i've always had
a resounding yes yeah um we're very lucky that we have family in the area who are willing and happy
to- and able to be able to do that yeah um so really you can get sick all you want
because that is just liz and shane hangout time that's true you guys have a blast without me
um so yeah that's how we do it another factor to consider is that i will hopefully
can you cross your fingers be approved for the jaco arm uh if you saw that video it's a robotic
arm that hooks to my wheelchair um hopefully i will- or my appeal will be approved and i
will have another you know way to get myself food yeah or i don't think i can lift myself
into bed with it but oh you definitely can't but i'll be able to like help you out which will make you feel good, i can bring you tea
you can let chloe outside you know take care of like things in the house
bring you your medicine your warm pad my heating pad yeah i love. whenever she doesn't feel good "i need the heating pad"
so hopefully i'll be able to do that yeah um the the overall thing is that we do have a system
we're not just like oh no you're sick take care of me anyway yeah i don't have to like
push through i think a lot of people were like so do you just you know yeah you suck it up yeah
uh no you can't i mean if you're like puking yeah you can't really push through that
for the migraine i did push through because like i get migraines uh like more than one
time a month like almost every month and so like i i'm very used to them by now i was just you know
resting after yeah i got shane his coffee and then i went back to bed but yeah so fingers crossed
knock on wood, anything you can do for good luck uh that we won't ever have to use this yeah um
or often we don't have to use it but that's our plan that's how we do it yeah works well thank
you thank you liz yeah for being my hannah now oh god i don't like that at all okay bye you
