Chris Evans surprises sick young fan

Los Angeles: 'Captain America' star Chris Evans paid a surprise visit to a sick cancer patient, who is battling a brain tumor, at Boston care center.

The 33-year-old actor thrilled nine-year-old Kenny Botting when he made an appearance at the Christopher's Haven and gifted him presents and his autograph, reported People magazine.

Evans happily posed for photographs with him before taking a tour of the facility.

"It's their strength that gives me strength. No matter what hurdles are in my life, it's nothing compared to what these families go through, so any way I can bring a smile, it's worth it," said Evans.

The actor hails from Sudbury, Massachusetts, and is in town for an event at Fenway Park to raise money for Christopher's Haven. "I am more than happy. I just want to say thank thanks for coming," Botting said.
