<p style="text-align: left;">Thank you so much for watching our video. I&#8217;d like to tell you how I feel about the video, and why I wanted to share it. Over a year ago I met Dani at the glee project call backs. We connected in a way I have never connected with anyone in my life. It was never about gender or my wheelchair or the number of YouTube hits. It was always about the feeling that I felt when I was around her. We laughed so hard that weekend we cried.  The joy and trust was immediate. Dani and I shared our goals and I realized how aligned we were.  I recognized our connection was bigger than just the two of us and we could say something together.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be very honest, when Dani had the idea to make the video I was nervous. I worried that this was another way for someone to put me in a box. Then I realized I felt even stronger knowing this is another way to help people see beyond the box!  We are so much more than the categories we place ourselves in. I have never just wanted to be labeled &#8220;the girl  in the wheelchair&#8221; so I was scared that this would be another opportunity for someone to label me.  I know that I am more than that.  I&#8217;ve never let labels define who I am.</p>
<p>I never expected to meet Dani and fall in love, and I especially never expected that I would want to share it with the world. Here I am. I couldn&#8217;t be more proud to share my love with all of you. No matter who you are. No matter what you think is or isn&#8217;t possible I am telling you that life&#8217;s surprises are the best gifts! I never thought I could have it all. It didn&#8217;t seem possible. I can say now, I feel like I got my fairy tale.</p>
<p>One last thing, I want to thank Dani.  This has been ONE of the greatest adventures of my life. You&#8217;ve helped me see so many new beautiful parts of life. Thank you for loving every part of who I am. Love really feels limitless with you!</p>
