That was so amazing and touched my heart. Richard you are so blessed to be given a second chance. Not everyone takes advantage of that chance and I am so glad you did! You are a wonderful man, husband and father and I feel very honored to know you! Thank you for sharing your story.
Richard, It was great to see someone doing whatever it took to be there for their family. Your will to provide for them made you surpass yourself in such an amazing way. Congratulations on quitting smoking! Keep up the good work. Jewel
Thank you Richard. 8 years ago I recieved the same wake up call but overall I have not listened. Last May I had to have another heart procedure and was told I have the heart of a 70 year old. I know there is hope when I see stories like yours. Since I haven't listen to my own heart, It was nice to hear yours. Thank you Richard and Bill.
P.S. My heart says thanks for the help also.
What a heartfelt, beautiful video. Your transformation is incredible - you look great and you are setting a wonderful example for your children. CONGRATULATIONS!
Richard, your story is truly amazing. I'll always remember hearing it the first time when you came to a gathering at my house in Knoxville, TN. Your transformation will encourage others to live a healthy life!
