David Smith MBE is a British adaptive rower who won gold at the 2012 Paralympics. He underwent surgery in 2010 to remove a tumour inside his spinal cord. However, during surgery 4, David was left paralysed on his left side.


In 2025, David found out he had three tumours inside his brain, losing his hold on life. David was fighting between death and survival.


Staying fit and healthy, David’s outlook on life is tremendous, and he constantly reminds himself that ‘he can do hard stuff’.
