“Pal, you’re a hero, what you did was so brave, so selfless — your sister is so lucky to have you as a big brother. Your parents must be so proud of you,”
“I will send you an authentic Captain America shield because pal, you deserve it.”
“Keep being the man you are, we need people like you, Hang in there, I know recovery might be tough, but based on what I’ve seen, I don’t think there’s much that can slow you down.”
