We Need To Talk with Paul C. Brunson · Born With No Limbs: I Didn't Want To Be Their Poster Child! Briel Adams-Wheatley · 23 Jun 2026 podcast

And yes, there are really inspiring parts.

And yes, there are a lot of miracles and everything.

And I do see that and I do feel that.

But I just don't see myself that way.

I had a lot of really cool experiences that I am really grateful for because of having a disability.

It gave me a lot of chances to do things that kids my age or my siblings didn't get to do.

I was constantly getting free gifts.

I was constantly getting invited to events for free.

I was constantly getting invited to front row things.

And I mean, sometimes my siblings were reaping the rewards of that also, which was nice because then we could share those experiences.

And they didn't feel as left out.

But I know for my brother, who's the same age as me, for the longest time, he felt like he was living within my shadow.

And I, for the longest time, I mean, even still to this day, I feel bad about that.

Because he really was a really, really, really good brother to me.

And he was the only brother that would stand up for me.

And he was the only brother that was there when other kids were being mean to me.

Or he'd go to parties so that I could go to the parties and not feel left out.

And so there were a lot of really good things despite things that I was feeling mentally and emotionally internally going on.

And that's why I was saying there's nobody built like my mom because she saw what I was physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually capable of doing despite what everyone said to her and the things that were said or the feelings that were said towards her and how she treated me.

She still made sure that I am the person I am today.
