Darryl “The Miracle Man” Perry
Darryl Perry attended the University of Florida on a full football scholarship where he blocked for NFL Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith. Darryl graduated with his Bachelor of Arts in 1990, and went on to train with the World Football League.
On March 15, 2007 while asleep, Darryl suffered cardiac arrest. Despite administration of CPR by his wife and paramedics, Darryl remained brain dead and comatose for almost three weeks. His prognosis was grim, with physicians recommending that his wife remove him from life support. However, the drive, determination and strong faith of Darryl brought this “Miracle Man” back from the dead. The man who physicians initially said was brain dead, and then subsequently said would never walk, talk, speak or know his friends and family.
Today, he stands stronger with the resolve to help others.
