Barry Du Bois and his cancer diagnosis

In 2010, Barry was diagnosed with cancer of the immune system which was called by the doctor Plasmacytoma. Barry underwent a complete course of chemotherapy. He felt better but cancer had already eaten away parts of his vertebrae.

To normalize the area of the spine, Barry had a titanium implant surgically inserted into his spine. He was better for a few years in between until…

2017 The Relapse

In 2017, Barry announced that his cancer had come back. This time it had returned as multiple myeloma. His Living Room co-stars Amanda Keller, Miguel Maestre, and Chris Brown and his fans were in tears on learning about the return of his cancer in his pelvis and spine. He restarted chemotherapy and was away from his TV show from February to March 2018.

After the second course of chemotherapy

Two months after the last dose of his chemotherapy, Barry now appears more radiant with a glowing complexion. His hair is growing back and his body fat ratio is less. He has survived the double lethal dose of chemotherapy.

Barry stated that he feels that it was positive thinking and meditation that worked to get him back to health besides modern medicine.

Mindfulness meditation, overhauling his diet, regular exercise, and positive psychology — used in conjunction with modern medicine are what did the wonder, according to Barry.

Barry Du Bois, 57 said:

“I had slipped back into the business of life,”

He continued:

“I was having too many coffees, too much sugar, I had neglected my psychology and mental health, I was having late nights on the computer, I was trying to spin too many plates.”

Barry Du is now eating plenty of whole foods and nourishing vegetables, taking care of his mental health through meditation, and regular exercise, and focusing on the things that matter most to him: twins Bennet and Arabella, and his wife, Leonie.

He said:

“From now on I have to be in the best fighting condition,”

There was a new sense of confidence visible in him after two brushes with near death. He further added:

“Life is all about preparing for your next battle because you never know when it’s going to hit you but you can guarantee it will.
I don’t want people to think they can go to the hospital and be cured. You don’t want to ever have to be in this position.
This is about preparing for battle so you’re ready for whatever comes at you, ‘cos you can guarantee it’s going to come.”
