This is part 2 of a conversation I had with some close friends about my disability. If you haven't seen part 1, click here:    • A CONVERSATION WITH FRIENDS about my ...  

I gathered some of my close friends from high school to have a chat about my disability. We talk very openly about our experiences and discuss topics that I feel could benefit some people going through a similar thing. While muscular dystrophy has its ups and downs, this conversation is lighthearted and positive. I hope you get some value out of our chat.

Thanks for watching!

Kalvin :)

My name is Kalvin and I'm an Australian guy in his mid20s with a condition called FSHD. It is a form of muscular dystrophy which affects various parts of my body, limiting my mobility. I was diagnosed as a 14year old and have only recently accepted it as part of my life.

I will be documenting my journey living with a progressive disability, whatever that may entail. Expect to see a whole lot of disabilityrelated advice, updates on how I'm dealing with things, activities I pursue and a whole lot more.

My goal with this channel is to hopefully inspire people with disabilities to go out there and give things a crack. I aim to spread some awareness about muscular dystrophy and build a community of people to ensure that no one feels like they're fighting this on their own.

Stay strong ♥
