In 2007, US Navy SEAL Mike Day survived being shot 27 times by al-Qaeda militants in his legs, arms, abdomen, buttocks, and scrotum, and was knocked out by a grenade.
Remarkably, he not only survived but also managed to eliminate all four militants and later walked away unaided after regaining consciousness.
He left the Navy in 2010 after 21 years of service. He went on to represent Wounded Warriors, and spent the rest of his life advocating for veterans.
He unfortunately passed away in March 2023.
Mathew Perry talking about his death shattered my heart into pieces.
His legacy was to help as many people as possible through their addiction.
And he did.

Matthew Perry portrayed one of the most well-known characters of all time but also helped others. He used his celebrity status to lobby Congress for more drug court funding and opened a rehab centre at his former mansion. What a remarkable legacy to leave behind. #MatthewPerry
A lot of people will remember Matthew Perry for a lot of different things.
Most will probably remember him for playing Chandler Bing on "Friends". Some will remember him for his parts in movies.
The best way to remember Perry though, is exactly how he wants you to remember him:
“I would like to be remember as somebody who lived well, loved well, was a seeker and his paramount thing is that he wants to help people”
I just saw someone saying “not matthew perry, chandler Bing was my friend when I didn’t feel like I have any” and that sums it up perfectly.
You made me laugh when i needed it the most,
Friends was my comfort on those dark days
But Chandler you were everything......
