Mike Maldonado uses exercise to fight Diabetes and Cancer
Mike had Type 1 Diabetes and got into working out after he recovered from a Coma caused by Diabetes. He started working out after his doctor asked him to gain some weight. After exercising Mike gained muslce and he seem to be fine. After some time he was diagnosed with Cancer (Lymphoma) and had also formed a tumour under his heart. He lost about 80 lbs in two weeks. His cancer got into his bone marrow and copromised his immune system. Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy didn #39;t help much. Bone Marrow transplant didn #39;t work because the donor did not come through. Stem Cell transplant helped him recover. After gaining some strength Mike was able to go to the gym and started gaining weight and his muscle back. He now also has a Coronary Heart disease and his life expectancy is unknown, but Mike has not given up and keeps training to stay strong. He is a true inspiration and a true hero. Mike thinks our mind can overcome any obstacle and our body can overcome anything that we set our mind to. We should live a healthy lifestyle.
