Nicholas Purificato, a 10-year-old from Millville battling Ewing sarcoma, has support from the star Eagles receiver, and it goes both ways.
Purificato, a 10-year-old from Millville, became inspired from Smith’s, when the former Alabama wide receiver encouraged youth across the country to “keep pushing.”
