Do U believe in miracles?

Reports surfaced today that former Hurricanes TE Kevin Everett is walking independently. This is nothing short of a miracle thanks to modern medicine – a big part of that due to the Miami Project and their state-of-the-art medical treatment.

The Miami Project invented a cooling technique to lower body temperature and reduce swelling after a tragic event such as Everett’s where paralysis once looked to be the long-term option.

One week after Everett had a four hour operation on a fracture dislocation of his third and fourth cervical vertebrae, he had movement in both his arms and legs. This was on the heels of doctors giving Everett virtually zero chance of ever walking again.

Since then, Everett has been rehabbing back home in Houston and today the former #84 walked for the first time since the injury.

For those Canes fans consistently crying the blues over a 4-3 season and lighting up the message board daily, bitching that this team has no heart – hopefully this is an eye opener and dose of reality.

As caught up as we get in things, here’s another daily reminder that there are some things bigger than football. Congrats, Kevin. Keep up the good work, fellow Hurricane.
