This story is truly inspiring. The fact Meyler originally went to Liberia to open schools in inspiring enough on its own but the fact that she has continued to stay after the Ebola outbreak and risk her own life to help save these children really shows what a true hero she really is. She has spent several years in Liberia making a difference and helping those in desperate need. This story truly inspires me and its people like Meyler who do indeed make this world a better place. My favorite part of this video is when Meyer was asked when she will return home and she replied with "this is my home." This really showed what a true hero Meyler is, she knows where she belongs and what she is meant to do and that is really inspiring to me. For her to leave her loved ones behind and risk her life day after day facing the possibility of contracting Ebola all to help the children really shows the hero inside her. This story has inspired me greatly and I hope it does to others as well because we need more people like Meyer making a difference in this world.

This is absolutely amazing!! The fact that this woman is risking her own life for the sake of others just warms my heart and pretty much restores my faith in humanity and the power of caring. She does not HAVE to do this. No one is FORCING her. She CHOSE to do this. What an amazing woman. Though, I would like to see more acts of kindness like this in other aspects of the world, but since this is an immediate issue I think it is necessary.

I enjoyed this video so much! This women is a true inspiration...not many people would stay in Liberia because of how life threatening it is to be there. But, she seems like she does not regret one thing about staying there. She is risking her life to save others which is so heart warming. So many people are freaking out about Ebola because it is so serious but this doesn't stop her from living her every day life trying to save the lives of young kids. I thought it was so nice when she said this was her home.

I think this story is inspiring!! Knowing how deadly the disease can be, I think that it is amazing that Meyler is risking her own life for the sick in Liberia. There is so many people in this world who only think of themselves and would not go out of their way to help one another. I think that it is a reassurance to see someone choosing to do this out of the goodness of her heart. She is an inspiration and a role model to everyone, and there should be more people in this world who will do what she is doing. If more people were like this, the world would legitimately be a better place!

This story is absolutely inspirational. The fact that this woman is dedicating her life to helping others in need is incredible. This woman has given up the privaledges of her life in America to take care of those who aren't as fortunate as her, in this case, Ebola patients. While many people in America are panicking over something thousands of miles away, this woman has put herself right into the middle of it, risking her life and showing no fear for her own safety. I think it is easy to donate money but this woman has shown true dedication to a cause and to making the world a better place, one sick person at a time.

It is amazing that people like her exist in this world. They are true heroes, risking their lives for the well being of others. I really wish I was that brave. This woman's story is incredibly inspirational. I mean, she's been in Africa for nine years! She built schools! She is aiding in the fight against Ebola!! She is a role model for all.

I believe this is very great and inspirational. For her and many others to do this is great. She is risking her own life just so other people can live and be happy. When the lady asked "When are you coming home?" and she responded with "This is my home." That made the story all come together and make it so great. She is a true role model and is a great person and others who do this are just as great as her! I hope other people can be just like her some day!

I am very happy that the Liberian people have this American woman helping and supporting them so much. Her help is highly necessary and prior like her are the ones who really change the world. I really hope that her missions there get even more support and become even more successful.

Not only is this an amazing story, it is also quite inspirational. This American is the definition of brave. She is risking her chances of getting Ebola to help the ones who's life has changed because of it. And the fact that she said "this is my home" was really heartfelt. I know a lot of people would do whatever they could to help those in needs, but it takes a very special person to help those suffering with a deadly disease. All I can hope is that she doesn't get sick, and staying healthy is the good karma she will receive. The smile on her face throughout the entire video shows how much she loves what she is doing and wouldn't want to be doing anything else. She is a true hero and we need more people like her in today's society.

This story has changed many life's in Liberia. This young woman had her heart set on to help those who are in need of her skills. She has a determined mindset and wants to continue accomplishing her goals even if Ebola is can be an obstacle. Nothing can stand in her way of spreading her love to young children, orphans or not. Everyone should know that there are always others living, who has things worse than themselves. I think everyone should take a minute, set a small goal and change someone's life for the better just like the woman in this video.

I think that this is an amazing person doing amazing things for the community around her. It is so heartwarming to see such a sweet and selfless person do so much good, especially for children. It is an admirable quality to be so patient, dedicated, and selfless. She saw an opportunity to make a difference and she took it even though it wasn't her obligation to do so. Ebola is such a terrible disease and is ruining so many lives for people. I think it is great that this woman is helping these grief stricken children and that she is risking her own life to better theirs.

I think this story is truly amazing. This woman is risking her life to help young kids fight a disease that most of their families have died from. I think the fact that they set up places for the kids who are alone is very moving. Seeing the smile of her face, and the kids is very inspirational.

I think that this is just amazing and truly inspirational. What she is doing is so brave, she really has such a big heart. I hope this makes people thankful for everything we have in our country because we are really lucky compared to many other countries and people. I think more people should want to do good deeds like this, I don't think that there's enough good in the world that seeing this really opens a lot of people's hearts, and I hope it does open people's hearts to helping others.

this video was truly amazing! Some people may think this women is crazy for staying there but as she said this place is her home and people will do anything for the people and places that they love! It is amazing that she has done so much and will go so far for the people and things that she loves. This is a truly inspirational story and more people should be like this women.

I think this girl is very brave for sacrificing herself for these people. It gives insight to the lives that people in that area of the world and the conditions they must withstand in order to live. I certainly could not adapt to these conditions as she is doing. Not only that but while protecting myself from a deadly disease. It is a shame that she will probably have to be quarantined after she is done but it is her decision and that same decision is probably helping many people survive.
