I remember the reaction when he took the field, it was so cool:
I remember where I was when I learned about his stroke...it was unreal. My wife and I were on an anniversary trip and I recall the complete shock at the news, which came across the ticker along the bottom during a local news report. We just looked at each other thinking he was way too young and obviously feared the worst.
However, not only did he come back, but he played well for a long time after that. Definitely nobody quite like him...he’s an all-time great. Enjoy listening to him on WEEI each week. Very cool
