Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is so cool. You know how inventions come out
of necessity. Well, there are these two sisters from Colorado
and they have launched a dating app that they say
has helped hundreds of people with disabilities and chronic illnesses
find a connection and it's the only dating app of
its kind. They got this idea after their friend Jacqueline

(00:21):
went out on a date and she took her feeding
tube with her and her date was a little you know,
it was just surprised at that, not mean about it,
but just surprise. And so they created in twenty twenty two,
date Ability, which bills itself as the only app for
the disabled community and chronically ill communities, and so far
it is going great. That is fantastic. That cool. I

(00:42):
just love that. I know me too, What a great idea.
