President Joe Biden is in the news after spending the day with Damar Hamlin.
Last January, Hamlin shockingly went into cardiac arrest during a game between his Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals. The horrible medical event took place during ESPN’s Monday Night Football telecast of the game.
Hamlin continues to recover after the incredibly scary incident. He has made the rounds as well, as he attended Super Bowl LVII in Glendale, Arizona. Additionally, on Thursday, Hamlin met with the United States President.
The President sent out a thoughtful tweet on the face-to-face meeting.
“Damar Hamlin’s courage, resilience, and spirit inspired the American people. And what’s more: he turned recovery into action – and our country is better for it. It was my honor to have him and his family here today,” Biden tweeted on the POTUS Twitter account.

Hamlin responded to Biden’s tweet with one of his own in the quotes.
“It was a pleasure & an honor meeting you today. I know your time is precious and I wouldn’t waste a second of it! Our conversations were valuable.. #UncleJoe,” Hamlin tweeted.
