NFL player Damar Hamlin has posted the first reaction since the collapse he suffered in the game pitting his team, the Buffalo Bills, against the Cincinnati Bengals. In a post on Twitter, the Bull's safety has appealed to his fans:

Putting love into the world comes back 3xs as much... thankful for everyone who has reached out and prayed. This will make me stronger on the road to recovery, keep praying for me!

Recovery at the medical center

After collapsing to the ground, the state health services placed him on a stretcher. The medical team protected his head to prevent further damage. After this, cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) was started and lasted ten minutes. Once safe, he was transported to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center in an ambulance, which provided oxygen.

Immediately, the match was called off and there was a cascade of reactions from the sports world. Both his team and the NFL, as well as a multitude of athletes and fans, wished him a speedy recovery. Last Tuesday came the news that he was responding well to the care he was receiving, and was showing signs of recovery.
