(in the box to the left)<br>After writing the letter, Kevin declared that he would be at the first season game the following Friday. No one thought it was possible, even the doctors, but he made it. He was discharged on September 10th, just hours before game time. Kevin walked with his teammates onto the field and participated in the coin toss. A few dayslater, Kevin told his parents that he would play again during the 1999 season. But his muscles had all been damaged from the acid in his system and he had lost 30 pounds. Kevin went to physical therapy with the goal of playing in the homecomin game which was still a month away. These goals came after the doctors, who to this day still cannot explain how he survived, told Kevin he would be in the hospital for the next six months. Playing football, they said, wasn't even an option. Kevin used this as an incentive to aid his recovery and like his mom said,  Once he has set a goal, he does it. <br>While staging his comeback in the hospital, Santee (Kevin's community) and surrounding communities were staging fundraisers to help support him because of the lack of insurance coverage.  It's been amazing. said Kevin with gratefulness.  People we don't know are sending us money. People in the community and businesses have done things for us. They printed up t-shirts to sell. It's just amazing to see the amount of peope that will come out and help you when you need it. You see all the horrible things that happen on the news. Soething like this sort of restores your faith in humanity. <br>Mrs. Wilson added,  Without us asking, they've all just jumped in and done all these benefits, car washes and fundraisers for him. A wonderful young mn from the Valhalla team put it really well when he said,  We might be competitors but were more comrades H!?8Vk}i5KamŽJSv Fb>9Y H;1Ϡuo,}].'GF6xZr?g"wu-ufHdnOwp4G1OО7~yPcs5#G#+/5;&*o pF.cGɏÐ=@/q}Ik?_[v*GhQzg|j|H­'ZdJ̈́Xo"Km~6'#3 g`>z$$vȭכ5^;F_4|:kz=O1`;A]OFFaR*jO΋#ZIkҼ}Vr Z7~_91v=GGܕƛ;e0aPs|zfw'zM:w:2|u[QLS(P+bQv?G4?1A>A+U[ڕ&9(`zPlUu퍔PRǥw[k^ 1R)ǮP[ֵD-ЁPm;Bm勠{cԁOT4zOPV-ZQB7I ~;"sry_S$8fzSNmH(翍NfYcJ%a sjh 0)myI]s$6TP2VPYwHE>UԒ] `&\!6y@pDoҸ#:2VT;a\OSV~xӮ2;[f牝}_j)MB~^d5#6%RsǨ^*O6oڸ⠎v_gTTopcr@7;˿{t'  ,kN|Udh+V4AS6no U ֬uZU-V$c'ǿL@늾Kˈk9e Jy1_ W`ʪQ;Ђ+/,~v7aۮe>A%b!ݤlְzcxbe+''`Cdn7@uG~ni:eMWn ~sJiAF -jl+6Z(-~,Nuo[U`H v{ՍilUC57ej)ZS֔* U #%W߾_nAЌk]X SSAjss*=Nb|"~U UH=3bRWt۾5=F*a.lU8~0Tlتtp6*ٻalU=͊Ɋث"GG3be瑬8|U9?9i.lU>alU8E,?x㿰v}m2\dFǦdu[H1L}sg 87ʛH9v20AAW+.Hmot˟ZftH?p/* rY,~LI5;p;T;6/(􈚮wm
