2. Survivor Story: “The Miracle Man” Barr
At age 54, Richard Barr was diagnosed with advanced Stage IV lung cancer.
“When I got the news, the impact was enormous,” Barr said. “I was given only
a few months to live. The evening I received my diagnosis, a friend of mine
brought me a LIVESTRONG Guidebook and yellow wristband. When I held
that wristband in my hand, I felt a glimmer of hope. When I started going
through the Guidebook, it gave me direction. I knew I wasn’t alone. At that
moment I decided not to give up. It’s been over two years now and I’ve never
taken that wristband off. I lean on my faith, my care team and my friends, and I
wear yellow everyday because it symbolizes hope and reminds me I’m a cancer
warrior! I’m Richard, ‘The Miracle Man.’ I live strong.”
