Quantavis Lovett was 18 years old, a senior at Dublin High School in Georgia.
On May 5, he was shot three times while attending a family gathering in Dublin. One bullet passed through his neck and became lodged in his cheek. He was placed on life support, and his family feared the worst.
From his hospital bed, he had one question for his doctors.
Would he be able to walk at graduation?
They believed he could recover in time.
Less than three weeks later, Quantavis Lovett walked unaided across the graduation stage, diploma in hand, with a bullet still lodged in his cheek.
He plans to study computer science at Clark Atlanta University.
