Those who have been around young minds they need to shape and prepare for the future know that teaching isn’t just about making students gather knowledge in certain subjects but more about being there for the kids, teach them about life, and never stop believing in their abilities of becoming great people and valuable members of the community.

One very special teacher proved once again that every student who has been part of her classroom will always be her kid. One day, as she was driving on the open highway, Keller Sutherland noticed a former student of hers pedaling on his bike. It was obvious the boy was in a hurry, which made her think he might be in trouble.

Cameron’s father is a diabetic who very often suffers episodes that leave him in a very bad shape. That day was one of those when he felt really bad and the only person around was the seven-year-old boy. He knew he had to act quickly so he rushed to the neighbors’ house for help, but they weren’t home. Cameron then thought of calling 911 using his dad’s phone but it required a passcode.

The only thing he could think of was reaching to his grandma, who unfortunately lived five miles away. The boy didn’t hesitate a bit, so he quickly got on his bike and started riding as fast as he could. He didn’t consider the dangers of being on the open rode as the only thing on his mind was his father’s well-being.

When Cameron’s teacher saw the boy, she got worried that something could happen to him so she turned her car around and reached for her former student. When she asked him why he was in a rush, the boy explained how he had to get help for his diabetic father. Keller, the Ellen Woodside Elementary School teacher, later told Greenville News: “He was the bravest little boy I have ever seen.”

While the two were staying there on the road, two truckers pulled over and called 911. When the first-responders arrived, the teacher led them to Cameron’s house. They arrived just in time, because Cameron’s father’s condition was bad as he was laying in the bathroom unconscious.

This brave boy saved his father’s life. So young and already a hero. The incident triggered many questions of how to make it easier and available for young kids to be able to make emergency calls when facing similar situations. The principal at Ellen Woodside Elementary School organized a seminar to teach the students how to use different types of phones to call 911.

Cameron’s mother thanked everyone who helped and said how her son knew everything was going to turn just fine once he saw his teacher, Mrs. Keller Sutherland.

It’s amazing how teachers go above and beyond for their students. The bond that is created during lesson time and the trust kids have in their teachers last for a lifetime.

The act of giving birth is a true miracle all by itself. Welcoming a living creature into the world speaks joy and unconditional love, and this isn’t only true for humans, but animals as well.

Cameras at the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust captured one of the most incredible moments ever. Sumatran orangutan gives birth to her first ever baby. The staff believed this new mom was infertile, but she surprised them all.

She could be seen sucking the baby’s sac before she gives it a hug and embrace it. Once the little bundle of joy is all clean, she takes it in her arms and shows it to her caretakers. Such a lovely moment showing a proud mother.

The never-before-seen footage of the “miracle birth” was later shared on YouTube. You can take a look at it yourself below.

Owner secretly films garbage man approaching his dog

Whenever the garbage truck pulled up near the house of a man named Joshua Byrne, his dog Shelby would start acting in a strange manner. At first, he thought it could be the sound of the truck that disturbs the animal, but as he gave it a second thought, he realized that whenever Shelby was outside, chained to the post, she could actually reach for the garbage cans. So, it was obvious that her behavior was somehow related to the man behind the truck.

Byrne decided to see what is really going on, so he let Shelby outside at the yard and waited for the garbage man to come pick the trash as he stood at the window filming.

The moment the truck pulled up, Shelby started running towards the garbage man. Byrne’s heart stopped for a second as he was sure his dog would attack the man, but that’s not what happened. Shelby was just overly excited to see her friend who always makes sure to say hi to her and pet her on the head.

Byrne was surprised and happy at the same time. He had no idea of the sweet friendship that was taking place ‘behind his back.’

He was so glad the garbage man treated his dog with so much love that he got outside to thank him.

Since Byrne uploaded the video he took, it became a huge hit on the social media. It has already been seen more than 10.5 million times with people praising the garbage man. One person even wrote, “Dog petting breaks should be mandatory at every job,” and we agree.

Shelby used to be a shelter dog whom the Byrne family adopted. They say that she is making their days a bit better ever since she’s become part of their life.

Anderson Cooper recalls the final days he spent with his mother Gloria Vanderbilt: “It was lovely”

Anderson Cooper, one of the most prominent broadcast journalists and political commentators, found his way to television all thanks to his reputation as an on-the-ground reporter of breaking news events. Among the rest, he covered Hurricane Katrina, the Haiti Earthquake which took place in 2010, and a lot more.

In 1995, Cooper was hired as a correspondent at ABC News, and then in 2001, he joined CNN. In 2003, he was given his own show, Anderson Cooper 360°. He remains the host ever since.

In 2012, Cooper came out as gay and has received several awards by the LGBT rights organization GLAAD. At the same time, he became “the most prominent openly gay journalist on American television.”

Recently, Cooper spoke of his relationship with his mother Gloria Vanderbilt, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 95 after battling stomach cancer.

Cooper also opened up about his mother’s final weeks and revealed during an “Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen in Conversation” event that the two “had an amazing last week or two together. We would just lay on her bed and hold hands,” as reported by People.

“When she got the diagnosis… she paused for a long time,” Cooper explained. “She was like, ‘Is it treatable?’ And [the doctor] said, ‘Look, you can go through treatments, but it’s like a miracle moonshot if it has any impact, and you’re going to be in a hospital.’ And she was like, ‘No, of course not.’ And then she paused for a long time and she said, ‘Well, it’s like that old song. Show me the way to get out of this world, because that’s where everything is,’ which is an old Peggy Lee song.”

He then found an old footage of Peggy Lee performing the song and played it for his mother.

“…She was like, ‘Oh, that’s marvelous,’ which was a big word my mom liked. And it became this thing that we would look at, this Peggy Lee video of her singing ‘Is That All There Is,’ like, once or twice a day,” the famous anchor revealed through tears. “And then she started to sing along to it and I would start to sing along. And then we had this great moment where she was holding my hand while we were listening to the song and it was like we were dancing. And it was lovely.”

When she was in her mid 80s, upon a gynecologist visit, she told her son, “I could still bear a child.” Cooper explained he was confused by his mother’s wish to have another child at such advanced years, but she told him that she was speaking of his child, not hers.

“She says to me, ‘Honey, I’m not talking about having a child of my own. I mean, that’s crazy. I’m 85,’” Cooper revealed while appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, according to TODAY. “She’s like, ‘Well, you know you can get an egg anywhere nowadays.’ I was like, ‘Uh-huh.’ She’s like, ‘Well, what I was thinking is you get an egg and, you know, fertilize it with your sperm and I’ll carry your child.

“I finally said to her, ‘You know, Mom, I love you, but even for you, that is just bat—- crazy. That’s just nuts,” Cooper added.

Before she passed away, Cooper told his mother that he was going to be a dad, something Gloria Vanderbilt hoped for her entire life.

“I was able to tell her shortly before she died that I was going to have a baby,” Cooper said on Live With Kelly and Ryan, as quoted by The Hollywood Reporter. “…Wyatt hadn’t been created at that point. Wyatt wasn’t actually a being at that point. But he was an idea in my head and I was in the process of it.”

Cooper is now a father to a beautiful boy. We hope his mother watches him from Heaven and is happy for him.

Mom reunites with son she gave up for adoption more than 3 decades ago thanks to a DNA test

A lot of young women who end up pregnant without being in a relationship or having a stable job and a place to stay decide to give their babies up for adoption. This decision is probably one of the hardest in their lives, but they simply feel that they won’t be able to raise a child on their own and hope that the adoptive family would give their bundle of joy the life they deserve.

Melanie Pressley was only 18 when she learned she was pregnant. The news triggered mixed emotions. The thought of having a child made her happy, but at the same time she was aware she couldn’t take care of a baby all by herself. The father didn’t want anything to do with the baby and Melanie was financially unstable at the time, so she had to give up her son.

However, she never stopped thinking of her baby boy. The only memory she had of him was a photo her sister took.

“You go through a mourning period and yet live the rest of your life mourning,” Melanie told Fox News.

Her son ended up with a beautiful family; the Vosslers. They named him Greg.

Greg learned he was adopted when he was 10 years old but wasn’t curious about his biological parents until later in life. Namely, when he got married and had children on his own, he really wanted to learn who his real mom and dad were. So, he decided to take a DNA test. His biological mother, Melanie, did the test herself earlier so when Greg handed in his samples, there was a match.

After 33 years, he was finally going to meet his mom. Melanie was even more excited to hold her son again.

After chatting for long hours, they decided to meet in person in Ohio in June 2021. 

Their reunion was one of the most beautiful ones. Greg got to meet his half-brother and his two half-sisters and a lot of his relatives. Melanie met her daughter-in-law and her grandchildren.

“Life has a funny way of giving you what you need, not what you want and I guess life just realized that we needed this connection and our families needed each other,” Greg told News 5 Cleveland.

Melanie also spoke of her feelings. “After finding him, I felt like my heart was just whole again. Becoming older, you kind of become a little wiser, but there is no shame in giving somebody up for adoption. There are loving couples out there that cannot have children that would love to raise a child.

“I’m telling you, if you could meet Greg, he was given a life beyond my belief. He was raised with manners. He was raised how you would dream. It’s just unbelievable.”

No hard feelings, just two people whose lives have become more complete after meeting one another.

25 bloody bite marks all over baby’s body: Mom’s horrific discovery after picking her girl up from daycare

What most couples dream of is welcoming a child in their life. Although this means greater responsibilities, spending a bunch of money on diapers, and many sleepless nights, moms and dads describe having a kid as the most precious gift and the best thing in their life.

However, no matter how much parents would love to spend their days around their little ones, they have to go to work and earn money in order to provide for the family. It’s then that parents turn to daycare centers and kindergartens that would take care of their kids while they are at their job. And choosing the perfect place is not that easy.

When one young Arizona mom named Alice Martin and her husband were about to pick a daycare for their 15-year-old daughter, they though they chose wisely and that Creative Beginnings Preschool was just the place.

But one day, as Alice picked the baby up from daycare, she noticed something that made her stomach turn and made her angry and sad at the same time. Her daughter’s body was all covered in bite marks.

Alice says the poor child was bitten more than 25 times. At least that’s what she was able to count.

Once home, Alice tried changing little Rosalynn’s clothes and it was then that she noticed the horrific sight. She just couldn’t believe her eyes.

”At first, I was like ‘are those really bite marks?’ And then, my brain kinda stopped thinking and I started crying,” Alice Martin told WKYT.

”There’s over 25 plus, it’s hard to tell. 25 would be the minimum that the police officer and I discussed.”

The case was so severe that the Tucson Police was informed of the incident and they are still trying to discover what had really happened and who hurt the child. As for now, no charges are filed.

“You always want to protect your children and I feel like that didn’t happen,” Alice said.

“I feel like I left her with someone that didn’t look out for her at all.”

“The fact that nobody intervened in how many minutes, maybe they were left alone, maybe they disregarded the cries, I don’t know, but it takes some time to do that kind of biting and my daughter would have been very upset,” the worried mom said.

As for now, the daycare hasn’t released a statement regarding the incident.

Speaking to KOLD News 13, The Arizona Department of Health Services said:

“ADHS is investigating the incident at Creative Beginnings Daycare and working with law enforcement. The investigation is not completed and ADHS cannot comment on pending investigations.”

As for Alice, she’s hoping those who are responsible for what have happened to her girl will pay for their actions. In case that doesn’t happen, other children may suffer the same consequences as little Roselynn.

“The fact that nobody intervened in how many minutes, maybe they were left alone, maybe they just disregarded the cries, I don’t know. But it takes some time to do that kind of biting and my daughter would have been very upset,” she said.

Our children are our treasure and we have to make all in our power to keep them safe and sound at all times.

Ivanka Trump and her husband tried to “force their way” into meeting with Queen Elizabeth

After losing the presidential elections to Joe Biden, Donald Trump and his family settled in Florida. His daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner are reported to have bought a $30 million worth piece of land on the island of Indian Creek Village, Florida, also known as the “Billionaire Bunker” where they are planing on building their dream house.

After trying herself as a model, a business owner with clothing lines, and most recently a presidential advisor, Ivanka Trump seems to have opted for a much calmer life. According to some magazines, she wants to focus on her family while working as an “informal adviser” for a new nonprofit group dedicated to “perpetuating former President Trump’s populist policies.”

However, being a Trump, it isn’t quite easy to stay out of the spotlight as many people are eager to know what each member of the family is doing every step of the way.

Recently, new information about Ivanka and Jared’s time as advisors emerged in the memoir by the former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham, I’ll Take Your Questions Now.

The memoir was released this week, but Washington Post had obtained an early copy of the book.

Grisham held the position of the White House press secretary for some nine months before she was transferred to First Lady Melania Trump’s office. At the same time, she worked as a communications director and knows a lot about the Trump family.

Among the rest, she’s pretty critical of Ivanka and her husband who caused a stir and came under fire when they started working as advisors. Back then, Ivanka answered back and explained that she would serve as an unpaid employee in the White House office.

Richard Painter, a law professor at the University of Minnesota, spoke to the Guardian when Ivanka was assigned the new role in 2017 and said, “She has a West Wing office, she has equipment, she has a White House email address, she’s going to be doing policy work. For purposes of the conflict of interest statute, I believe she is a government employee.”

Grisham describes a specific incident with Ivanka and Jared which took place prior to an official visit of then-president of the United States, Donald Trump, to England. According to Grisham, Ivanka and Jared tired to force their way into a scheduled meeting with Queen Elizabeth. In fact, they were very persistent to be part of the trip, which would have been a serious breach of protocol, but were shut out.

Apparently, they were told they couldn’t be part of the official visit due to limited capacity of the helicopter.

“I finally figured out what was going on,” Grisham wrote. “Jared and Ivanka thought they were the royal family of the United States.”

Further, she wrote that Ivanka would use the words “my father” all the time during staff meetings, so she was referred to as “the Princess” by the staff and even First Lady Melania.

As for Jared, Grisham revealed that he would often get involved in other people’s projects and would then leave and blame others in case of failure. She referred to him as to “the Slim Reaper.”

“I had shared with Mrs. Trump many times my opinion that if we lost reelection in 2020 it would be because of Jared,” Grisham explained. “She didn’t disagree with me.”

As expected, the Trump family wasn’t happy with the book and the claims. Donald Trump spoke of Grisham and told The Hill, “She became very angry and bitter after her break up and as time went on she was seldom relied upon, or even thought about. She had big problems and we felt that she should work out those problems for herself. Now, like everyone else, she gets paid by a radical left-leaning publisher to say bad and untrue things.”

He also added that she “didn’t have what it takes and that was obvious from the beginning.”

Dylan Little’s amazing journey: The boy who has proven his doctors wrong so many times

By
Kelly White

As parents, one of the absolute worst things that we can hear is they there is a problem with our young baby, a baby that is so dear to us, so when we hear that there is a problem, it’s really hard to hear. Even though the odds can be stacked against you, or seem like they are, children are really resilient and can really surprise the most skeptical! The amazing spirit to fight back against challenges, the courage to face hardships is really wonderful, and very inspiring too! Dylan was born some five years ago, at that time the doctors said that they realized very quickly that there was something wrong, the skin on his back was dark red, the rest of his body was covered in big, what seemed like, liver spots, you couldn’t miss it. It happened that Dylan did, in fact, have a serious problem called Congenital Melanocytic Nevus, where 80% of his body was covered in birthmarks! The doctor said to his mother, Kara, that her son had to go through many surgeries in the first few years of his life. Other patients that have Congenital Melanocytic Nevus also have a higher risk of skin cancer developing, and it’s really important for them to always keep a watch on their birthmarks.
Facebook/Dylan’s Amazing Journey
The huge mole that covered most of Dylans back was so incredibly big that the doctor said they would surgically remove it, but it was a hard operation and used skin from other parts of his tiny body, poor boy!
Facebook/Dylan’s Amazing Journey
Dylan grew older and the doctor said that they were then able to perform the more complex operations, and also to have enough skin to transplants. They even put breast implants into those areas to stretch the skin ready for the operations, this boy is really one brave boy! Dylan had these implants for a long time, three months of putting up with them, his skin grew bigger in that time to help to have enough skin to get rid of the huge moles on him.
Facebook/Dylan’s Amazing Journey
Dyan has had so very many operations so far, after 26 operations, around half of his huge mole was removed. His mom, Kara said:

“We’re holding onto hope that the moles never turn on and become cancerous, but he could develop cancer at any point …He has surgery every three to six months, dependent on which area of the body.”

Even though he had all his operations and hardship he that he suffered, he really is a happy little boy!
Facebook/Dylan’s Amazing Journey
Kara said to the news:

“We are trying to do what’s best for him, we want to give him the fullest, longest life we possibly can …Dylan amazes me constantly, he always has a smile on his face and feels like he owns the hospital, all the nurses know and love him.”

Facebook/Dylan’s Amazing Journey
Dylan knows that he looks different to other kids, but he’s ok with that, strangers stare sometimes, but then Dylan explains to them why he looks how he is. Most people are just a little interested in why he is like that and are polite, sometimes though there are others that are really mean, some people are just plain mean people! Kara said:

“Once in a supermarket a store manager asked us to leave because one of their customers was upset about having seen our child, which was very upsetting”

His mom, quite rightly, refused to hide or be ashamed in any way at all, we commend her! She goes on to say:

“I’m not afraid to take him out at all and I don’t want him to be worried or think there is something he should be ashamed of.”

His parents also created a Facebook page to follow his recovery, and for people that may be interested in his recovery too. Dylan is such a brave and clever little boy, we wish him the best for the future and that all his future operations go really well. Please feel free to share his story and to celebrate both his braveness and his awesome fighting spirit for life, such a brave boy needs recognition and encouragement, how amazing!
