This has to be THE story of the year 'round here! Movies are made about things like this!

As you can read in many articles, etc., Zach is a HS Junior in small-town Perham, MN, 60 mi. E. of Fargo. On Jan. 20th, he collapsed suddenly in their BB-game. A Nurse, etc., on scene, helped revive him, and I THINK they initially came to a Fargo hospital by emergency helicopter. They had to operate in Fargo. Later he had to go to Minneapolis for more surgeries and rehab. It was a difficult road down there, with some setbacks. I think there were some times when they thought he wouldn't make it...

Like some kinda Cinderella story, Zach had recovered enough to make a surprise appearance (still in wheelchair) b4 his teams' Wed. nites game @ Target Center in Mpls (MN HS State tournaments). Perham WON that game to advance to MN's title game on Friday night.

On Thurs. nite @ Target Center, they had a special night to honor many of the Dr's., Nurses, Emergency personnel, etc., who helped save his life! Some were from Fargo.

To cap-off Perham's crazy season, they won the MN State BB title on Friday night!!

It's hard not to get teary-eyed over this story...
