Many are impressed by the story of an American veteran with blood cancer doing 700 push-ups every day.



On the 29th of last month local time, foreign media such as People in the US media told the story of Nathan Thairi, who was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia last year.



Tire Lee, who was 41 at the time, was shocked by the news, but as the father of two children, he couldn't sit down.

He had hope and decided to fight the disease and set a difficult goal for himself, doing 176,200 push-ups within a year.




The reason we set this number is because we learned that 176,200 people are diagnosed with blood cancer each year in the United States.

Mr. Tireri took on a difficult challenge with the idea of ​​supporting patients suffering from the same disease and raising awareness of the rare disease of blood cancer.



Mr. Thairi opened a YouTube channel called'Pushing Through Cancer' and started uploading push-up videos every day from January 1 of this year.

If you want to do 176,000 in a year, you have to do 500 every day, which was a difficult goal even for people who were not sick.




However, Mr. Tirey succeeded in the challenge in 254 days. That's 694 pieces every day for 9 months. He left his last five push-ups and finished with his family and wished for good health.



"I believe that exercise will always make you feel better, no matter how hard the day is," said Mr. Tire.
