Man beating the odds for survival time with terminal mesothelioma disease

A man with the terminal disease mesothelioma in the United Kingdom was told by his physicians that he had very little time to live.

But the 58-year-old is still alive two years later and, he'd decided to have a little fun by poking fun at his own situation.

He went to a booker and bet that he would be alive in two years time.

Last week marked two years and five weeks later. He was thus able to collect his health sum from the booker.

He reportedly donated half of his earnings to charity and plans to spend the rest on booze and cigarettes.
