Synopsis

This is a true story about the "West Virginia Miracle Man" David Barrows. He was an alcoholic/drug user most of his life until he was severely injured by an ATV accident. In fact, he was pronounced dead three time by the time he arrived at the hospital. The doctors were able to revive him after the 5th try and told his family IF he made it through the night he would never walk or talk again, but he proved the doctors wrong. He now is a motivational speaker talking all over the country to schools and organizations about ATV Safety Awareness, alcohol and drug prevention and T.B.I disabilities. Even though he miraculously survived he still suffers from permanent damage from the accident causing him to lose sight in his left eye, total reconstruction on the left side of his face, no feelings in left arm or left leg, plus he suffers from Traumatic Brain Injury (T.B.I.) and lives with severe pain in his back and chest daily. He is an advocate of the AA and NA programs and is writing his story in hopes of saving one more alcoholic/drug addict and saving lives through ATV safety awareness. His story is nothing short of a miracle and is an inspiration to all.
