Bess is diagnosed with Williams syndrome, a genetic condition that is known for causing a friendly and happy personality. Her favorite thing to do is play “Dinosaurs” with her younger brother as the two stomp and roar together. Bess hopes that everybody in the world is happy and wants others to know if you feel sad you just have to dance to feel happy again.

I guess one of the downsides with such syndrome is that you became too friendly with some folks you should totally be not

@ahonui Жыл бұрын

In the current society, thats very bad. People tend to try to take advantage of people.

@sushs7991 Жыл бұрын

No, the problem theoretically is , being focussed on happiness all the time is not realistic. Its not about the downsides of some things it's about being unaware or less avware of living in the balanced side. She will miss the part of life which is real. Ie sad and happy both. It's like not living in a real world.

@@sushs7991 it totally is a real world to live in. she just doesn't require sitting with the negatives in life in order to value the positives whereas most of us need that contrast, and that's cool as hell. every world view on planet earth has positives and negatives for survival and experience but i think being constantly happy and lovey is one of the more pleasant ways to be.

Hello everyone I usually don’t post but my name is Nora and I have William Syndrome and I am posting this because I want people to know that living with William Syndrome is very challenging sometimes because of the medical issues and social issues that I have faced and trust me it is no walk in the park I can tell you that much I would like to inform everyone that William Syndrome affects everyone differently so please don’t assume everyone is the same

@tamoyed Жыл бұрын

i'm always glad to see people bringing up that one video or representation of a disorder is never the whole picture. my conditions are the same way, people think they're fun but they're actually really difficult. it's good that people want to focus on the happy parts to help with stigma, but we don't want people to think it's all fun and games either.

@littleloner1159 Жыл бұрын

Thanks alot for saying that! I can only imagine the massive challenges that come with the medical side, and the fact that the world isn't always going to be as safe and nice as ppl with Williams syndrome would need it to be. Stay strong! And the better people are informed and familiarized with people that are different, the better it will get for us disabled folks. Also, the joy the interview with people that have Williams syndrome have brought into my depressed heart is absolutely priceless. I can only imagine just how many peoples days have been made so much brighter by meeting someone as cheerful as we've seen in these interviews. That alone can open people's hearts and minds to the other side of having disabilities.

It is a syndrome. The always-happy attitude is unfortunately the only positive aspect of it. People with WS have many heart problems, teeth problems, eye problems, coordination problems and anxiety problems along intellectual disabilities. Fortunately the extreme happiness makes them not care but they will always need someone to take care of them.

If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven. The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved. JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16 Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.' Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late. We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now... 'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen. 🎉🎉

My Uncle has William's syndrome! They told his parents that he wouldn't live past 8....now he's in his 50's! He's nice to everyone and always seems to happy, somehow even remaining optimistic after his father passed away. It's not all sunshine and rainbows, William's syndrome tends to come with a ton of medical issues and could be very challenging. His life growing up was also difficult due to the social stigma that he faced and the lack of understanding/compassion towards those with disabilities.

It wasn't until he had to go to the doctor for his heart that I found out, because he said it had to do with his Williams Syndrome. If he didn't tell me, I would have never known.

My daughter has Williams Syndrome. She is just the most amazing blessing and changes everyone who knows her for the better. She has many (MANY) physical disabilities along with her other disabilities. She is so strong and faces challenge after challenge with such a beautiful ability. She is extremely friendly also, and makes everyone who meets her feel loved, appreciated, valued and seen. She’s never gone somewhere and not made a friend. That being said, she doesn’t always feel happy. She struggles with anxiety and also gets angry fairly easily. We’re working on coping skills with her for when she’s feeling angry and overwhelmed. I showed her this video and she just absolutely loved seeing someone like her. My daughter is hard to place when it comes to where she’s at (is she more like a toddler or a school age child, etc.) She’s 16 but in many ways she’s like a 3-4 year old and in other ways she’s like an 8-9 year old. My daughter has an extreme form of Williams Syndrome according to Stanford specialists. In fact they documented and filmed her in order to teach specialists about Williams Syndrome and it’s many complexities. Not too long ago she received a wish from Make A Wish which was absolutely mind blowing and precious beyond words. To this day she STILL talks to everyone about it and it continues to bring her so much joy. Each day with her is a gift that none of us takes for granted. She has several heart conditions and has already had to undergo major open heart surgery. She actually almost didn’t survive it-so the fact that she is here with us really IS a gift. The Drs are trying to hold off on any future surgeries as they aren’t sure she will survive another one. The Lord has been good to us and they have been able to hold off on all of them for the time being. My little Olyvia is my joy. Our family has been shaped so much by our little firecracker. I wish she didn’t have to experience all the pain she goes through daily (major GI issues, and joint/bone issues, along with hyper sensitive hearing which causes normal sounds to be painful for her). But as far as who she is and how she interacts with the world and the people around her, I wouldn’t change that for anything (with the exception of trying to help her understand that not everyone is safe to be friends with).
