"Doctors believe said my maximum breathing capacity is likely reduced by 12-20%," Miller wrote in his post. In addition, or Miller also shared that he has asthma. Despite the odds,he managed to snag one of only two spots to represent Team USA at the Summer Olympics and win a bronze medal. Imgur users showed their overwhelming support for the swimmer leading up to the Games and after his victory, which did not proceed unseen by Cody. Check out his inspiring post below.
