Sarah cannot hardly believe Teddy squeezed his father’s hand—it is the first good news since Teddy’s injury. She tells Jim the doctor thinks it might be good to keep visitors coming—the doctor is sure Teddy follows everything. The coach wants to visit, but Sarah is not sure that it would be a good idea. When he arrives, the coach offers encouraging words and promises if there was any problem, anything off about the injury, he will personally get to the bottom of it.
Meanwhile on the webpage, as the outdoor vigil for Teddy’s recovery fast approaches, students voice their support for the football program. “Football is total action” (74), one poster says. Furthermore, no one can guarantee the athletes will not get hurt. Camille tries to keep the message board positive and centered on Teddy and praying for his recovery. When Camille visits the hospital, she whispers to Teddy about a poster no knows named Clea who is raising questions about how he got hurt. She asks whether Teddy knows Clea or if Clea knows him. The football team visits on their way to the vigil. Will bends down and reassures Teddy that no one on the team is going “to say anything about what happened” (90).
