Paul "Man in the Iron Lung" dies at age 78 on March 11th, 2024

I watch SBSK on YouTube and Paul was featured back in 2022. The video description states:

"Paul survived polio in the 1950's and has used an iron lung to breathe ever since. He would go on to college, while moving his iron lung into a dorm room, and eventually became a lawyer. Paul wants others to know that you just have to keep fighting because miracles can happen. "

He has an incredible story. He was the only man left living in an Iron Lung. He not only was an interesting icon to study in the fields of history, psychology, biology and technology but he is an example of human resilience and strength in a unique hardship but nonetheless inspiring in a universal way.

Rest In Peace Paul.

The episode of his interview can be viewed here. There are other interviews and articles about him I'm sure that you can probably find. He is also a published author and lawyer so I am curious if he wrote any personal writings like a memoir of sorts that can be found in the library. I have yet to search that up.

I've seen him on TikTok a few times recently. His story is truly incredible and so inspiring. May he rest in peace.

Oh wow, I've heard of him before. May he rest in peace!

It's sad when anyone passes away, rest in peace.

I'm not familiar with this person but I'm sorry to hear they've passed away.
