Top Myths About People with Spinal Muscular Atrophy

People with spinal muscular atrophy, and disabilities in general for that matter, face a LOT of assumptions—and most of them are completely wrong. In today’s video, we talk through some of the biggest myths we’ve encountered as an interabled couple living with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). From questions about intellect, marriage, and finances, to assumptions about our faith and even our value to society… we’re breaking it ALL down with honesty, humor, and grace.

Why? Because many people with disabilities still hear versions of these messages every day—directly or indirectly. And it’s time to confront those harmful narratives with truth.

Whether you’re part of the disability community, you love someone who is, or you’re just here to learn, we hope this conversation encourages you, challenges your assumptions, and reminds you that EVERY life carries God-given purpose and dignity.

*In this video we talk about:*

Why disability has nothing to do with intelligence
Truth about interabled marriage (and what people often get wrong)
The myth that disabled people are automatically financially dependent
How faith shapes our identity and calling
Why societal value should never be measured by physical ability
What real life with SMA looks like for us

Thank you for supporting our mission to bring faith, truth, and hope into the disability conversation. ❤️
