Devon Gales has, unfortunately, endured another setback. This time, however, the setback involves his family, too.

Gales, as you may recall, is the Southern University football player who sustained a serious spinal injury against Georgia last September. However, a strong bond between Gales and Georgia blossomed in the months following the accident, which left Gales in a wheelchair. Soon after the accident, Georgia helped pay for some of the family's expenses. In February at a press conference, Gales and his family found out they would be receiving a modified, handicap-accessible house courtesy of the Triumph for Tragedy Foundation.
