WATCH: ‘Captain America’ Star Chris Evans Surprises Young Cancer Patient

By Brent Furdyk.

Chris Evans made the day of a young cancer patient when the Captain America star paid a surprise visit to nine-year-old Kenny Botting in a Boston hospital.

Diagnosed with brain cancer, young Kenny underwent brain surgery to remove a tumour three weeks ago. Since then, the youngster has been staying at Christopher’s Haven, a “home community”; for young cancer patients that’s located next to Boston’s Mass General Hospital.

Chris took pictures with Kenny, and gave the young fan autographs and gifts, while Kenny took the star on a tour of Christopher’s Haven.

“I am more than happy,”; said Kenny “I just want to say thanks for coming.”;
