I had no idea but every tabloid website picked up my video I made to Paris Hilton ( my new friend ) to thank her for donating $5000 to my www.mikeywheels.com website to help me live. I never asked, she is just that caring. I saw last night, it's worldwide. And people are saying its a publicity stunt! I CAN'T BELIEVE PEOPLE! Paris helped me because she chose to. I didn't even mention my website. I believe she saw it on my twitter (as I am not a very "look at me" guy) so I don't go around telling people, "hey, I have a website, donate to me" hahaha I'm just a humble and honored disabled guy that's been trying to live alone, and have for 4 years now. Everyone said it was impossible.. I laughed and still do.
I did almost die the other day haha I fell out or my lift and was hanging upside down for 5 hours, if not for a friend, Bill Manspeaker, from GREEN JELLO. Woulda died.
I'm making a few videos to get back into vloging, and have a gopro on me at all times.. Thanks to the gopro daily giveaway :)
Many more BETTER! Vids to come :)
I'm not a man with motives, I'm just trying to live a kick ass life before its over :) and all the haters can keep on hating, cuz I'm loving every second of this ride :)
Thank you world!!!!!!!
All I wanna do is love :)
Mikey
YOLO!
Help to save Mikey's life
As you know, Mikey has always been able to smile through the pain, no matter what, until recently. The pain in his stomach is now worse than ever and has led to an inability to eat, causing rapid weight loss. At 6'1", he's a meager 75 lbs and dropping fast. It's getting more difficult for Mikey to smile through the pain and fear.
One of the only places where Mikey can get help is the MAYO clinic in Minnesota. There, a team of specialized doctors will work together to figure out how his illnesses affect each other and can be treated to restore health and balance to his body so he can keep living his incredible life.
All of this obviously comes with a large amount of costs, which can only be covered with the help and donations of as many people as possible – even if it's just a dollar. Please click on one of the two following links to access the crowd funding campaigns that will help Mikey get better. Thank you!
I'm much more active on Facebook as it gets hard to maintain everything solo

Almost 4 years
When I left New Jersey four years ago, about November 2008 I had no idea what was going to be in front of m. I fell, got back up, starved, to eating with kind strangers. People gave me their number and never answered. I was promised this and that from producers and directors, agents and whatnot... Labeled as the medical marijuana guy, used in documentaries, passed laws, NY Times, LA Times, other publications, being "googleable" ( i never imagined someone could google me!!!!), meeting all my idols and becoming their friend somehow through the universe. I received an email from children in Asia doing home work about my Washington post video. I'm sitting there eating dry total cereal going... Whaaa....
Life is beautiful, for me to be so connected to the world for not doing anything. I just wanted to live and love :)
I left with my dream of finding out my capabilities as a man. Not disabled, not different. But like everyone else... Slightly different. And also, words from one of my wisest friends and father figures; follow your heart and the rest will come. Meaning anything. I'm still not rich. But my life?!?!
PRICELESS!! :D
Everything happens for a reason!
Never never never give up. That "one day" is just waiting for u to not give up!
Love you
Mikey
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow (fingers crossed! ) and see what beauty awaits me :)
This morning I woke up to a text from an angel :) can't wait for tomorrow!
Keep dreaming everyone, it will come true :)
Dreams :)
They do come true, an angel named Paris gave me a new wonderful friendship and a pair of wings to live. Never stop dreaming. It WILL happen :)
EVERYTHING, good or bad happens for a reason!!!
Love u babe
Me
