Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin thrilled everybody when he began to communicate in writing with his family and others who have been at his bedside since he went into cardiac arrest Monday. His first question was “Did we win?” his doctors said Thursday.
Social media went crazy with that news.
Former NFL and MLB star Bo Jackson sent a heartwarming message to the Buffalo Bills safety when he took to Twitter and had this to say:
“Dear @HamlinIsland, The question you asked, “Did we win?” The answer to that is yes, we did win. The very second you opened your eyes, the nation celebrated and cheered. So to answer your question, hell yeah we won young man!!” Jackson tweeted.
Dr. William Knight IV said doctors had not yet determined the cause of Hamlin’s cardiac arrest and that testing is ongoing. While Hamlin has a long road ahead of him in terms of recovering, there is no doubt he won’t lack the support he needs as he tries to get back up.
It’s also too early to say whether Hamlin could return to football after undergoing rehabilitation, Knight said.
