| Percy Harvin Rushed To Hospital Thursday |
Thursday , in Edina at the Minnesota Vikings Camp, wide receiver and two year player Percy Harvin Collapsed on the practice field due to migraines. Percy, although dealing with migraines since his childhood, sought treatment at the Mayo Clinic last year but the migraines have bothered him incessantly still throughout all of last season. Harvin missed the playoff game Vs the Cowboys and only returned to camp this Monday. The occurrence carried out when Percy looked up to the sky to field a punt and suddenly collapsed and completely shut down. Coach Brad Childress remarked, "it wasn't a seizure but something of the sort." He seemed unresponsive at first and debilitated and the paramedics carried him off to the nearest hospital in Edina. Shook up by the dilemma, Vikings practice was called off for the day. Instead of practicing, teammates conversed and said prayers for Percy demonstrating the unity of the Vikings team. Despite rumors that Brett Favre and Coach Brad Childress are at indifference at who should call the plays and what to call, it seems that there is no noted ripple effect of the ongoing "schism."Reports even alleged that there was a negative effect of Brad Childress visiting Favre in Hattiesburg, it being textgate, because Favre was trying to send a message that he didn't fully respect coach Childress. This being very far-fetched and unlikely but no affirmed feelings or schisms have been confirmed. Percy is to stay in the hospital overnight and come back to practice Saturday to get prepped for the Sunday night pre-season game Vs the San Fransisco 49ers. Percy missed a lot of games on the debilitated list last year, and hopefully this occurrence marked rock bottom and now he's on the road to recovery. Percy Harvin, an excellent speed specimen and the Vikings 1st round draft choice in 2009, has become an important part of the Vikings versatile passing attack with Bernard Berrian, Sidney Rice, Visante Shiancoe, Adrian Peterson, and of course Harvin.
When Greg Lewis visited Percy Harvin at the Edina hospital later that day he seemed upbeat and was fully conscious. Head Vikings Trainer, Eric Sugarman, remarked, "I couldn't classify it as a seizure but something of the sort, I'd be remiss if I told you it was definitely a seizure." This marked one of the worst experiences Harvin has had with his migraines and lets hope that Percy can recover and start preparing for the regular The pre-season is all about preparing yourself for the regular season so lets take our cake [of injuries] and eat it too so come September 9 Vs the New Orleans Saints, we go and get the job done. The Superdome is an upheaval of discordance so let's hope that Percy can handle the heat and his migraines. No comment from Favre, that's surprising!
