"Nick:" "Ever since I was a kid, the burning desire in me was to do what everyone else could do." "When you go under the water, it's just freeing and independent and, like, just the silence."

"I was born in Melbourne, Australia, with no arms and no legs." "It was such a great shock to everyone." "Obviously, the first-born child... so much excitement, anticipation." "We expect a normal child like everybody else." "All the reports reported all normal and all good." "Medical staff, as well as us, were quite surprised." "Nick:" "As I'm being born, he could see my shoulder, and he saw there was no arm." "I actually felt sick, and it's kind of every moment you feel that it was just a bad dream and this thing is gonna disappear." "It's not real." "My dad went to the room where I was, and he stared at me." "And he went to my mom, and he said, "he's beautiful."" "even though the doctors told my parents that," ""we're sorry." "he's not gonna walk."" "He's gonna be in bed." ""He's gonna be a vegetable for the rest of his life,"" "my parents took me home." "They just basically said, "okay, god."" "We know he's not a mistake." ""He's just a gift differently packaged."" "and... aww..." "They called it "phocomelia,"" "which means a baby born without limbs with no medical explanation." "It's just one of those things that could not be explained." "Nick:" "Every morning, just about," "I have a caregiver coming in to give me a coffee and get me ready... you know, showering and all my personal hygiene, get me ready for the day." "Good morning." "that's what he says." "Good morning." "How did you sleep?" "[ Chuckles ] good." "That's good." "Most people don't realize just how special the relationship is between me and my caregiver, Nate." "Nate's been a caregiver for several years, and so when you have someone that close that, you know, you gain a trust and a relationship with on that level, it is special." "It is more than just a professional service-provider position." "We don't just want people who can be qualified, but we feel a connection with." "It... it's a really cool relationship." "[ Chuckles ]" "All right." "We got to do your hair, huh?" "Yeah, that would be great." "Where you going?" "What are... how are you..." "hair brush." "How are you hair spraying it first?"

"[ Chuckles ] I want to be Bon Jovi." "Yeah, you do." "Thank you." "about time you said that." "My parents had an attitude to say," ""look, no one's gonna tell us what our son can't do."" "We're just gonna give him every opportunity" ""to become as independent as he can be."" "I was actually the first disabled child in Australia to be integrated into the educational system." "As people were sitting at their desk," "I was sitting on my desk." "We considered prosthetics, but they didn't prove to be exactly what we anticipated." "One is the weight on his shoulders and his back." "It also limited his mobility." "He found mobility and movement of his own body and usage being a much better option." "We do underestimate other people's potentials, but I think that it is important to really learn that the challenges of life make us stronger." "When I first saw my son, Kiyoshi, within the first three sentences that ever came in my mind," "I think, "how did my parents do this?"" "I understand my dad a lot more now that I'm a father."

""what happens with my caregivers?"" "'cause they sleep over." "Kanae:" "I would see what caregivers do, thinking, "well, I think I can handle it."" "like, I never saw it as a big task." "The caregivers don't stay over anymore." "Yeah." "Apple." "Is that apple?" "Say, "thank you, mommy."" "do you like how I still put, like, your own spoon and fork when we...?" "[ Both laugh ]" "When we always..." "this one feeds three." "I love it." "Yeah." "Remember when I told you I wanted to have six kids?" "Yeah." "Do you still want to have six?"

"and she's patient." "[ Chuckles ] well... throughout my childhood, you know, seeing everyone at school... boyfriends and girlfriends and people talking about love... you know, I wondered would I really find the superwoman that I would really need" "who is not worried about the fact that I have no arms and legs and see the love that I could offer." "I used to be worried." "Like, little things like I can't even hold my wife's hand." "Well, you know, it's not even this." "Yeah, you can." "[ chuckles ]" "We actually met through a mutual friend." "You know when, like, everything goes blurry around you, and it was just me and him." "And our eyes met, and he was like..." "I don't know... you know, music in the background."

"time stopped and we looked at each other and we both knew it." "We both felt it was big." "I felt it in my heart." "I knew all she saw was my eyes, my soul, and the longing that I've had for all my life is, will there be a woman who can look me in the eye and look beyond the rest?" "Well, I had a lot of people say, "why would you want to go,"" "you know, into a relationship with a guy like him?" ""You know it's gonna be really challenging."" "sure, I'm gonna have to help him." "But if he's all I wanted in the heart," "I'd rather that than have arguments with someone every day." "And see, when people see us from the outside," "I totally understand." "I mean, he has no arms, no legs." "They see how disabled he is, but they really don't know all the compassion that he has, all the love that he has for other people." "People put too much emphasis on the physical, but they don't realize that is only one part of the person." "I love you." "I love you so much." "All right." "we're late." "We got to go." "All right." "Let's go." "Dude, you've seen me drive." "we'll make this happen." "Oh, he's running." "We're gonna fit me to drive a car." "I'm a little scared." "Your shoulder." "Yeah." "and...

"[ laughter ]" "And within three minutes in my seven-minute speech, one girl in the middle of the room started weeping." "You could hear her pain." "you could hear her cry for help." "She said, "I'm so sorry to interrupt, but can I come up there and give you a hug?"" "I said, "sure."" "so, she came up and she hugged me and she cried on my shoulder." "And she whispered in my ear, "thank you."" "No one's ever told me that they love me." ""No one's ever told me that I'm beautiful the way that I am."" "and I was in shock." "If my parents never told me that they loved me," "I wouldn't be here." "And it was at that very moment that I realized, "wow.""

"I see a lot of teens that have self-esteem issues and, like, they're at a stage in their life where they're trying to work out who they are, how they fit in this world." "Being able to be a guy up there with no arms and legs and smiling, letting them know that they're beautiful just the way that they are..." "you know, that's what I love." "Nick:" "Hi, everyone." "Together:" "Hi." "How you doing?" "Good." "Good." "Good." "thanks so much for coming." "I'm Nick." "uh, this is Nate." "Everyone say, "hi, Nate."" "hi, Nate." "Nate's my caregiver, and I'm just gonna get up on the table." "You know, I went to school in Melbourne, Australia." "As I went to school, of course, everyone was looking at me, right?" "And so, one day, this kid came up, and he said, "what happened?" "!"" "and I went up to him, and I said, "cigarettes."" "[ laughter ]" "So, he's never gonna smoke, right?" "And I realized I have a choice to either be angry for what we don't have or be thankful for what we do have." "There was one time after a very difficult day at school, being bullied and teased," "I came home, and I decided I want to give up." "And so I had thought of, how can I possibly commit suicide?" "And to my surprise, a thought came into my mind." "And it was the picture of seeing my mom and dad and my brother crying at my grave, [voice breaking] wishing they could have done something more." "And because my family did nothing but love me, because they told me every day, "Nick, you're beautiful,"" ""Nick, you're special,"" ""Nick, don't worry about what other people think of you,"" "I stayed, and I look back at my life, and I realize," ""wow, look how much I would have missed out on."" "it's one of the beautiful things about why I love to be able to share my story, not just because someone might find hope and purpose in their life and faith but because I remember just how thankful I need to be every day." "Sometimes, you fall down like this." "Sometimes you feel like giving up." "But I will tell you, miracles can come from your broken pieces if you just give your broken pieces a chance." "Very simply, if I try to get up, and I fail 100 times, am I a failure?" "No." "So, don't give up." "Does this look difficult?" "[ Chuckles ] yes." "a little." "Good. 'Cause it is." "[ Chuckling ]" "When you fall down, sometimes you feel like, "am I ever gonna get up?"" "yeah, you will." "you're gonna get through it." "Well, who wants a hug?" "[ laughs ]" "Give me a big hug."

"It's the fact now that kanae helps me at home, and now she's got a baby who has 24-hour needs." "[ Kanae sighs ]" "[ Chuckles ]" "Baby number two?" "It's overwhelming sometimes." "It's already a lot with one." "Definitely..." "definitely another one, like, for sure, but I would... try for a girl?" "Well, yeah, absolutely." "There is just a lot to think of and a lot to do." "Yeah." "like, I wish I could do more." "Seriously, like, I don't have to do the dishes." "I don't have to do a..." "you know, I don't clean up." "I don't take out the trash." "I'm used to helping you and now Kiyoshi." "I know, but it's different." "It's already like we already have two kids." "It's not like saying I have two babies, but I have two people to take care of." "I feel like she does have two children going on." "Like showering." "like, showering is one example." "You know, showering all three of us." "You know, I feel burdened sometimes when I'm like, "I wish I could help you,"" "but at least, if I can't help you," "I can at least help myself so you don't have to do so much for me in the evenings and stuff." "And so I can brush my teeth and shower myself." "I feel like that independency is important, but even more so for..." "you know, for you, and so I just... you know, and then that's why, like," "I'm trying new things, like with that car." "One day, can you imagine if I can go get the groceries or take Kiyoshi to school?" "If that involves trying new things and becoming more independent, that's so cool." "Like, I-i love it." "I want to try new things, and you're just such a champion, you know?" "But I understand." "I'm so blessed to have you." "I know it's a sacrifice that's worth it." "It really is."

"Nick:" "All my life, I've been faced with different obstacles, and I've had to be creative in how to overcome them." "If I could help my family by me helping myself, well, I'm gonna find a way to do that." "I'm all about never giving up, so that's what I'm gonna do." "I may not be able to do everything, but I'm taking this one step at a time and really celebrating even the little steps, like being able to take off my shirt for the very first time." "With Kiyoshi and his needs, you know, I-i feel like I could do it." "I could brush my teeth and I could shower myself and I can tuck myself into bed and plug in my wheelchair on my own." "Yeah, sure, like, if, when I'm single, having a caregiver there... yeah, we're friends, but there's just something about us being alone, and the more we can be alone" "and have that normal dynamic within a family, the better." "For me, I never wanted my wife to be scared that she's gonna assume the role of caretaker." "And one of the biggest fears that I had as a kid was I'm gonna be a burden to those around me." "And I had this itch on my back, and I said, "babe, I'm so sorry." "can you scratch my back?"" "hey, babe!" "Kanae:" "Yeah?" "Uh, could I ask you to shave me, please?" "Sure." "thanks."

"Nick:" "I can't imagine what my mom and dad went through." "To me, mom and dad are the most courageous people that I've ever met in my life." "Their courage, their faith, their love for each other as husband and wife really kept them together." "Glad mom's getting over her cold." "So many women look up to..." "to her, and she is a wonderful and amazing woman." "Oh!" "I knew you were gonna beat me." "Yeah." "[ both laugh ]" "That's because you picked golf." "You should pick something else for me." "Yeah."

"So, I don't know if I told you, but, um, we're gonna fit me to drive a car." "I'm a little scared." "You're scared?" "a little bit, 'cause... that's unusual to hear." "I know." "I know, but I'm a little nervous, but I'm excited at the same time." "Yeah, when I look back to the time when Nick was born and my thoughts at the time," "I thought, "what kind of a life is this child going to have?"" "having no arms, no legs, all I could see was him really lying there in bed." "I could not see a real future for him." "Well, in due course, as Nick grew up and he started to move himself and roll over, side to side and sit up, let alone hop along and move along... as time went by, we were able to begin to enjoy playing soccer." "There is also swimming and fishing that he wanted to do." "Virtually, we were able to do just about anything, yes." "Uh, I give up." "I heard a wise man once say that," ""Nick, you don't know what you can achieve until you try it."" "[ chuckles ]" "So, keep trying, dad." "you're good." "You're good." "Thank you." "you're a good pa." "In other words, apply your own instructions in your own life, right?" "That's it, yeah." "thank you very much for that." "That's it." "that sound familiar to you?" "Very much so." "Thank you." "that's it." "The teacher becomes the student, you know?" "Oh!" "[ laughs ]" "I give up." "[ Both laugh ]" "No, dad." "Don't give up." "never give up, right?" "I'll need a lot of practice." "[ Both laugh ]" "Kanae:" "So, am I getting a ride today?" "Uh..." "I don't know yet." "My back's already in pain." "Man:" "Is it too high, still?" "Oh, no." "I can't do this." "[ Exclaims ]" "Whoo-hoo-hoo!" "Whoo!" "Nick:" "When I was a kid, I saw all my friends being able to ride their bikes, run, play ball, all these things that I couldn't do." "Swimming was one thing I could do and be okay with being slower than everyone but still swimming." "It's cool." "It's awesome." "It's freeing." "My lung capacity's the same as anyone else's, but I don't need to supply oxygen to my arms and legs." "I've been able to hold my breath for more than four minutes, and as long as I have air in my lungs, I actually can float." "This isn't amateur hour, Nick." "[ laughs ]" "Aah!" "[ laughter ]" "It's crazy to think, like, that it was just... just us two, and now you see this..." "you know, house, kid, wife." "It's amazing." "So, Nate doesn't live in the house anymore." "As things in my life change, our time together changes." "It just makes it even more special when we do get the time to catch up." "I was nervous about how that transition would happen with caregivers." "Like, being a single guy to now being a husband." "Like, she's got so much." "like, I want to do more." "I want to be more independent and do what I can do, so I've actually started brushing my teeth." "Oh." "yeah." "Are you shaving yourself?" "I'm not shaving myself." "Cleaning your own ears?" "Hey, you were always scared of shaving." "I hate shaving." "What about this?" "[ chuckles ]" "This is like cashmere." "[ Both laugh ]" "Stop!" "So, anyway, so, we've been talking about, like, what can I do?" "And you know I've always wanted to, one day, see if I could actually drive a car." "Yep." "So, tomorrow, I'm actually gonna see if I can drive a car." "Can I ride along?" "You want to come?" "yes!" "It'll be fun." "of course I want to come." "Okay." "One thing I've really been wanting to do that we've been talking about for ages... we wanted to have a date night outside." "I want to, like, surprise her with a romantic night." "The flowers are blooming." "It's perfect." "The weather is now warm, so it's perfect." "But I need your help." "Oh, you need my help?" "I need your help." "oh, okay." "And even maybe some ideas about... yeah, sure, I got lots of ideas." "[ laughs ]" "So, I really need a lot of help." "Obviously, I can't give you a hand." "I just really want her surprised, so we've got to keep it a secret." "Oh, I'll got to McDonald's and pick up stuff tomorrow." "[ laughs ]" "Nick, I don't feel like there's a whole lot of good options, or else I'm just not really good at this." "No, I think you're the right guy for this job." "Just... [ laughs ] well, maybe not that one." "This one?" "yeah, no." "Maybe something a little bigger." "This one?" "That's okay." "Yeah, that one." "that's a good one." "This one?" "no." "Nick!" "[ laughs ]" "How about that one?" "no, no!" "[ laughs ]" "Okay, red." "No!" "It's a little tacky." "Nick, why don't you come pick these roses?" "[ laughs ]" "How about we put some on your wheelchair?" "Nah, it's a little tacky." "Nick." "That's a little tacky." "that decorates the BMW." "Look how cute this looks." "It's too tacky." "Oh, Nick, she's gonna love this." "No." "All right." "what do you think?" "I think it's great." "thank you very much." "Which, uh..." "which seat am I taking?" "[ laughs ]" "Uh, your wife's waiting for you at home." "It's just me and my wife here." "I'm sorry." "All right." "See you later." "but I do love you." "All right." "thank you."

"Babe, like, you have no idea." "This is so perfect..." "like, all the flowers." "I can hear the hummingbirds." "the sun." "It's like, when you called me over," "I'm like, "for what?"

"Love you." "Mmm." "So, today, I'm actually gonna be driving a car for the very first time." "I mean, it's been like a dream of mine." "You know, what if Kiyoshi needs to go to soccer practice?" "Like, I want to be able to take him there, you know?" "So you're, like, really thinking about driving?" "Well, yeah!" "Of course I'm thinking about... yeah, I can do my makeup in the car while you're driving." "[ Both laugh ]" "Okay, so right turn like this, right?" "Yeah." "and then... wax on, wax off."

"here it is... fully braked." "That's full brake?" "but I can't... that's as left as I can go." "And that's as right as I can go." "'Cause I don't have the movement that I have without this." "Okay, so..." "safety there." "We're gonna put in the other cross arm." "So close, though." "so close." "So, we'll try the other one." "The other version may give you enough range, at least so we can go down the road." "Kanae:" "So, am I getting a ride today?" "Nick:" "Uh... not with me." "I don't know yet with this one." "We're gonna check it out." "Man:" "Aim your shoulder." "[ engine revs ]" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." "Excuse me." "[ Chuckles ]" "Steering like this..." "mm-hmm?"

"My back's already in pain." "In pain." "I see, because you have to move too much." "I'm moving my whole body to do all that." "My feeling is we should try this out, even if it's just around the block." "[ Chuckles ]" "And, uh, let's try the foot." "My question is, are you a little bit too far away from it?" "I have full control over the steering wheel here, but to do that at the same time of accelerating and braking on the same... 'cause I don't feel like this is gonna... work." "'Cause I don't feel like this is gonna... work." "Nick:" "When you've been dreaming about something your whole life and you're staring it right in its face and the fear..." "can I actually do this?"

"It's definitely very different sitting back here and seeing you at the front." "Yeah, babe." "It feels amazing." "Like, the control is so sensitive and smooth." "Uh-huh." "I mean, just the experience of knowing I'm... knowing there's a full-size car." "It's a full-size car." "yeah." "It's got, like, my wheelchair." "You have passengers, not just me." "Oh, that's the scary part." "You've got, like, four people here." "Oh, someone just overtook me." "[ laughter ]" "Nate:" "Oh, my goodness." "Here." "Watch this." "parallel parking." "Ready?" "[ Chuckles ]" "Yeah!" "Kanae:" "You're unbelievable." "unreal." "Man:" "All right." "Good job." "Yeah!" "Whoo-hoo!" "Unbelievable." "Hey!" "Thank you so much." "[ laughing ] that was unbelievable."

"I was a little bit shocked, because... yeah, 'cause..." "I know little about you or not as much as you." "I'm the motivational, optimist guy, right?" "At 32, all these years wanting to know how it actually felt to drive a car, my brain is still registering what happened because it was that surreal." "I've waited that long to drive a car and just know the feeling that I'm, like, "wow."" "finally." "Yay, babe!" "whoo-hoo!" "So proud of you." "Mwah!" "all right." "I love you." "love you, too."

"Sometimes I'm cooking and he comes to the kitchen, and he's like, "what can I..." you know, "can I help?"" "but I get him to do stuff, too, so I'm just like, "why don't you, you know,"" "turn on the blender" ""or, you know, mix this or can you watch this for me?""

"Now I've just driven a car, I'm about to be a father of two, and my normal is about to change yet again because of one amazing gift..." "my family." "Okay. [ Chuckles ]" "Daddy!" "Nick:" "Hey." "Daddy!" "[ Mimics theme from "jaws" ]" "I got you!" "I got you!" "You gonna splash, splash, splash?" "You gonna swim?" "Swim." "Oh, look who's gonna learn how to swim."

"yeah." "Come on!" "And that's when I thought I was gonna have five." "[ Both laugh ]" "So, what do you think, Kiyoshi?" "You gonna have a brother or a sister, huh?" "Gonna have a little baby?"

"oh, I don't know." "It would be so cool to have a boy, 'cause then, you know, they can play and they'll be best friends and share the same toys." "Ooh, wa...!" "Even the same clothes, right?" "Ooh, wa...!" "But it would be cool to have a Princess in the house." "Oh, well, yeah." "To be the best father I can be doesn't mean that I have to be able to do everything." "And she doesn't love me because of what I do or what I can do for our family." "But it's me wanting to help, wanting to do all that I can be to make our life as complete and practical as possible." "It's incredible to see you here and know you as a person and know how far you've gone." "It's all thanks to god." "we know that." "Yeah, it's..." "you know, it's a miracle." "That's for sure."

"Say, "best."" "I know that I'm on a mission." "It's not just going on different platforms to share a message." "The way we live our life and the way that we are transparent to the world, we hope that people really think about their own life, their priorities, and what they're looking for, what they're waiting for... where is their happiness?" "Because we know that it's very easy to look on the outside for happiness, but really, what's the most fulfilling is what comes within." "So, we know that our perspective is much more bigger than arms and legs or even 90 years on this planet." "There is more that we hold onto." "I love you." "And I love you so much."
