  • This is the man in the iron lung. For 71 years he has lived in this metal box because it keeps him alive. But despite this - he has done incredible things with his life. This is the inspiring true story of Paul Richard Alexander.
    Thank you to Paul for welcoming us into your home.
    Thank you to @globalhealthchannel-ae for raising awareness about polio.
    And thank you to @sustentofila for telling this story.

    I remember seeing a story about him a few years back.
    Paul is amazing for never giving up.
    I also massively appreciate the effort he went to of telling people about his story often, especially around the time where a lot of people are / were antivax and trying to make others stop getting vaccines, because that is what can bring polio and other almost rotted out diseases back.
    A living Legend, he deserves all happiness that comes to him.
