Devon Still and his Ailing Daughter

Last week, Devon Still found out that his daughter became seriously ill after it was discovered that she had a cancerous tumor in her brain. He was completely heartbroken that he was given this devastating news, but he decided to stay positive and not allow his child to see the emotions he was truly fighting. He is a warrior, and by going on the field to play each week, he is sending a message to everyone that cancer will no beat his daughter Leah.

     As a response to this devastating news, fans bought over 10,000 Devon Still jerseys this past week which in part raised over $100,000 since each jersey sold for $100. The Bengals as a franchise also donated $1,000,000 to the CincinnatiChildren's Hospital Medical Center, to help children battling cancer. This small act by the fans and the NFL franchise makes an impact on the lives of those faced with cancer.
