On January 2nd, Americans across the nation prayed for Damar Hamlin after he suddenly collapsed during the Buffalo Bills vs Cincinnati Bangles game. The football player went into cardiac arrest after a tackle, and it took 10 minutes to get his heart beating again.
After he was revived, he was rushed to the hospital and spent a week there. Since his release, he has been trying to regain his strength.
Now that he is getting stronger, he recorded a message thanking everyone for their support. He thinks that Gd used him as a vessel, so he plans to “give it back to kids and communities all across the world who need it the most, and that’s always been my dream. That’s always been what I stood for and what I will continue to stand for.”
He revealed that he started his charity The Chasing M’s Foundation before he was signed to the NFL. He plans on using the nearly $10 million that was raised since his fateful night to give back to kids all over the country.
After finally hearing him talk, I am grateful he survived. We need more people like him. And I hope he is an inspiration for current and future football players because so many of them are greedy.
