The Extraordinary Case of Alex Lewis (Miracle Documentary) | Real Stories

Start getting your first money. - Good afternoon everyone. Thank you for attending tonight's event. -A team of volunteers came together to raise the estimated three million pounds that Alex will need during his lifetime. -Today he called me at work and told me that he was in the shower for you this morning. (laughs out loud) How does he feel? - I'm thinking about myself in the shower. -She said that she was in the shower, she and her husband. You touch people. You make them buy toilets. - That's enough support here. He comes and she scoffs. - Now, months later, Alex tries to move on and confidence brings him. -Sam. - Wow!

I can try - No. - Why? - Not yet, because I have them. - Cold! It's not like a huge weapon. (imitates gun) - Now, as soon as I can I see something new every week. I can see him opening the refrigerator now. I can see him now pouring himself a pumpkin drink. Now he is very independent. And he wants to do everything himself. All this is an attitude of mind and life. If you want your life, go out and get it. (inspirational music) - Regards Alex. - Happy New Year to all. Health. - The funniest thing happened the other day when Alex opened a cookie.

And he was a shoehorn. - That? - The corner of the shoe. (laughs out loud) - Alexi Lucy gathered her closest friends to celebrate her engagement. - Alex got sick two years ago. It was two years. - Can I propose a toast? Everyone around the table tonight. It's the first time I've gotten sick while we're all here together. And through everything that happens, your friendship has been invaluable to all of us. Even you Joe. And one person who did it even better than anything else was Lucy, who... - Don't make me angry. - So you are amazing to me and now I couldn't sit so happy without you.

Can we propose a toast? (unintelligible tremor) - I think what keeps us together and kept them pretty strong and yes, is honesty, I'm pretty direct. We are very opposite people. But I think if I wasn't honest with you, you wouldn't get better. - Yes. I would have been better. - No, you wouldn't. - Yes, honestly I would have. - No, you wouldn't. - Well, honestly I would have. - You would not do that. Let's be honest. - It would have been good. - No, you wouldn't have. What I've

real

ized is that I always thought I was the strong person in this relationship.

So when she had been talking for years about him being laid-back and, oh God, unmotivated, he was dead wrong. He is the strong one, he is the driven one, not me. - I have a beard. - So I think that's how it is. Yes. - Yes. - That's all. (Sam growls) That's it, that's it, that's it, that's it, that's it. - I need to get it. - I've almost done it. Yes, kiss, kiss. Hug. - Hey. - Don't run away, don't snuggle with me. - Because? - Because? Because I love you. Because I love you. I want to kiss. - No, why was it a secret now? - The secret? - Yes. - Oh, yes, we have something that slides with your hand. - Cool! - Pedal with your legs.

Use your legs. (inspirational music) I would say the last two years have been the most tragic, yet brilliant, of my life. From being minutes away from death and then getting to now being happily happy. (upbeat music) Of everything we've learned in the last two years, I think the most important thing is that, I think it's moving forward. We never look back. No matter what you face, keep going.
