I just love these stunningly inspirational videos depicting women who are undergoing incredible transformations and turn into the person they’ve always wanted to be. And speaking of positive changes, it’s pretty obvious that Christopher Hopkins, aka the Makeover Guy has his share. This guy does magic and impacts people’s life so deeply that their self-confidence boosts and they feel like brand new individuals.

This time, Christopher brought some rays of sunshine in the life of Janet. This lovely lady had been through so much during her life, and after the passing of her husband whom she took care of, her life collapsed. But now she has a reason to smile again. Her son is getting married and she wants to look fabulous for this special day.

“I literally have never done anything like this by myself, or for myself…I just thought if I don’t do it now, I never will,”

Janet told Christopher’s team.

“And there’s no promise of tomorrow.”

Humble Janet didn’t want much, all she said she needed was “just to be me, but better.”

Her lifeless, gray hair was about to get a new color and a fancy style that would fit the shape of her face just perfectly. The best part of this transformation is that it didn’t only affect Janet’s physical appearance but it let her vibrant personality shine through her face. The quiet and confused woman turned into a happy lady, and everyone could see that.

When she saw herself in the mirror she was wowed by the way she looked. She said, “It looks like me, not somebody else. It’s not so overdone.” With a huge grin on her face, Janet confessed how she hasn’t laughed like this in years. We are so happy she could finally get rid of the depression that struck her after her dear husband left this world.

If her husband is looking at her from Heaven he’s probably thinking, “You did it, girl, I’m so proud of you.”

People are saying how she’s going to rock her new appearance at her son’s wedding, and we can’t agree more. One person commented, “Janet, you are a sweetheart! I love the new hair, it’s light and airy, perfect for a Spring wedding and a brand new life. All the best!!”

As for us, we say how this woman is perfect, both inside and out. Take a look at her journey in the video below.

Landen Hoffman: 5-year-old’s condition shows “very little change”

The whole nation is standing by little Landen’s side. The five-year-old who suffered severe injuries after the 40 feet fall continues fighting for his life.

As we are all praying and donating for the sweet boy, a friend of the family has provided an update on his condition. As the public was previously informed how there has been no marked change, we are finally getting some news that bring a spark of hope.

The tragedy that struck the family and left Landen in a life-threatening condition and struggling for his life was caused by Emmanuel Deshawn Aranda. He has been jailed on suspicion of attempted premeditated first-degree murder and could be serving up to 20 years in prison. Aranda told the police how he was looking for someone to kill that day, and Landen ended up being the unfortunate victim. He suffered in an unprovoked incident, and his fate is still uncertain, although we all hope for the best.

Noah Hanneman, a close friend of the Hoffmans, posted an update for the public saying: “We have good news to share with you all on this Good Friday! Our miracle child Landen is showing real signs or recovery. New test results have been positive, though he remains in intensive care with a long road ahead. Our faith in God, and our Savior Jesus, is strong and we are gaining more reason for optimism day by day.  “

He adds how the little boy’s family appreciates people are respecting their privacy during these hard times and are thankful for all the prayers and the donations.

The incident shook America to the core and now people from all over the country, and even other places, are gathered together in their mission of helping little Landed survive.

The goal of the GoFundMe page that has been set to help Landed and his family with the medical costs is $1,000,000. So far more than $900,000 have been raised.

Hero waitress recovering after leaping off pier to save little boy

This world is a better place because of people like young Hanna Pignato who proved once again that not all heroes wear capes. This 19-year-old lady didn’t hesitate even a bit when she found herself in a situation where she could offer help and try save another person’s life.

While she was at work, on the rooftop deck of Joe’s Crab Shack in Daytona Beach on Saturday, she recalls she heard someone screaming and desperately asking for help. She could see a group of people gathered around a terrified mother whose son got stranded from his boogie board and was caught in a strong rip tide.

“I saw the mom screaming and crying. Just hearing her wail terrified me. Then I saw the little boy … his head just kept going down,” Hanna Pignato told Daytona Beach News-Journal.

None of the onlookers actually tried saving the drowning boy, but Hanna couldn’t just stay there and do nothing, so she threw off her shoes and jumped off the pier.

She was confident in her swimming skills and was brave enough to take things into her hands.

Unfortunately, just as she dove in, something awful happened. According to WESH, Hanna hit a sandbar and got fractures in her right foot and her back. But despite being in terrible pain, she didn’t stop swimming.

“I didn’t want the baby to die. He wasn’t a baby, he was 7 years old, 8 years old, but still I mean, that’s a human life — you just can’t look at that and walk away”, Hanna said.

She only headed towards the beach after she saw a man grabbing the drowning boy. It took her every ounce of strength she possessed to drag herself out of the water.

But this lady is fierce and says she doesn’t regret her decision of lending a helping hand to someone in need of help.

She’s currently staying at the hospital because of the injuries she suffered. Her mother Heather Pignato said how her daughter broke her right foot in three places when she leaped off the pier.

Her injuries aren’t minor, but she’s aware they could be much worse. But all she cares about is that the boy is now safe and sound.

“She had surgery on her foot this morning,” Heather told Palm Beach Post. “I’m just glad she won’t need surgery on her back.”

Hanna’s family set up a GoFundMe page to help this brave lady with the medical costs, because she doesn’t have health insurance. Her recovery may take a while, but her courageous act will be remembered forever.

People are praising Hanna for what she did, because not everyone is ready to risk their own life for the sake of saving another’s. Her family is very proud of her. And we have to say that her mother raised her right.

“She kept saying ‘I’m sorry, don’t be mad at me’ and I said ‘Hanna, you tried to save someone,’” Heather Pignato said.

We pray for Hanna’s quick recovery and we are so glad kind-hearted people like her still exist, because stories like this restore our faith in humanity and remind us that not everything is as bad as it seems.

Thank you young lady, you showed the world what life is all about, and that’s caring for the others and offering help when needed.

Sisters install hidden cameras in mom’s care home – horrified by what staff are caught doing

Seeing someone you love turning into a person unable to take care of themselves because of an illness they suffer is the saddest thing ever. When 71-year-old Joy Lewis was diagnosed with Alzheimer, her three daughters did their best to provide her with all the love and devotion and were there to satisfy every need she had. Sadly, her condition got worse over time, and the family decided it would be for the best if they place her at a residential home.

At first, Joy seemed to love the stay there. But with every visit, her daughters could feel something wasn’t right. In order to be sure their mother was in the right hands, they set up cameras in her room and waited in anticipation to see how the elderly lady got the bruises and why her skin was covered in sores.

The footage showed gruesome images. Their mother was treated with disrespect. She had been dragged out of bed, and forcefully grabbed by the arms. She was also refused her medications, any water, or proper food. Her pleas for going to the bathroom were completely ignored. Joy was experiencing real hell, and her daughters made sure the nurses pay for the pain they caused.

However, it looks like the authorities in this city of England weren’t strict to the wrongdoers, as they were given suspended prison sentences and ordered to carry out community service, although they confessed they committed the act.

Joy’s daughters believe every facility like the one where their mother was placed should have cameras installed.

The video below shows violent images that some viewers may find disturbing.

The saying ‘Never give up’ turned out to be completely true for the 92-year old Lyndel Rhodes. This lady became quite famous in the ninth decade of her life. Her love for the music brought her the happiness she was dreaming of.

As an amateur musician, she was playing instruments and writing songs for her own pleasure. Recently, she wrote a song named ‘Little House on the Hill’. However, what she did not know was that the song will bring her enormous happiness.

Lyndel’s son Buddy Canon is a record producer and upon hearing the song, he got in touch with Willie Nelson. Very soon, Buddy and Willie gave Lyndel the surprise of her lifetime. Upon hearing Willie’s voice singing her song, she was more than happy. She was also glad to find out that Nelson actually loved the song.

Lyndel and her family are music lovers. They have been especially into country music. She was introduced with this music genre since she was very little. She now recalls her father playing the banjo.

However, Lyndel was especially fond of harmonica. She became very good harmonica player. In the past she has recorded even a CD with old time songs and tunes, performed by Lundel herself. She never thought that some day she will be in touch with an artist like Nelson. Now, she is proud to say that she is the author of a song adored by Willie Nelson.

Take a look at the video and see this wonderful old lady.

Homeless Man Has Unexpected Encounter With Fast Food Worker

Do you want cheap and delicious food? The fast food restaurant are just the place you are looking for. These restaurants serve food which is usually not expensive and its affordable to almost anyone. We say almost, since there are people among us with low luck and no money to buy even the cheapest meal that is been offered.

One such man, with almost no money and home, wanted to buy a meal in one fast food restaurant. His luck this time did not bring him money, but something worthier.

This story is known to us thanks to Robert Gooch. He decided to take a bite at the Chick-fil-A in Jackson, Mississipi. While he was standing in the line and working on his phone, he witnessed something so interesting.

In front of Robert, there was a man. Judging by his backpack and his old clothes, he figured it out that he was a homeless man. The man wanted to have a meal in the restaurant, but he had only five dollars. This money was not enough for anything there.

The lady that served the homeless man was Karina. She turned out to be a very kind and generous lady. She asked the man to pick up what he wanted to eat. Moreover, she told him to take a drink and enjoy the meal. The man knew he didn’t have money for all of that, but Karina told him not to worry about it since she was paying for his lunch.

Robert witnessed all of that. His amazed face was evident. He wanted to share this event with his friends, so he posted all of it on his Facebook page.  Among the other things, he wrote:  

“It would have been so easy to turn around and ask the manager to step in or for help but she didn’t she just said hey it’s on me. She could have just gave him water and took his money and went on to the next customer and again she didn’t she just did it.”

Robert also adds that he has never seen anything like that before. He was in the customer service for a very long time and gestures like these are extremely rare. In addition he praised Karina’s goodness and kindness and noted that the success of the business is due to employees like Karina – honest and kind.

A real-life lesson! If there are more people like Karina with good and kind heart, this world would be a much better place to live in.

We are sure you have heard many different versions of the song ‘Hallelujah’. As one of the most popular compositions, the song is sang by various different singers and with various different quality. Since 1984, the year of its release, Leonard Cohen remains widely recognized by this very successful tune.

Among the most powerful performances of the song is the version sang by McKenna Breinholt and the Cinematic Pop Orhcestra and Choir. On June 9 2015 at the Mesa Arts Centre in Mesa, Arizona, the singer and the orchestra joined their forces and amazed the crowd. The singer is backed up by the choir and together they give a performance worth remembering for the rest of your life.

The beginning of the song is performed only by the musicians. Their smooth and well-harmonized tunes make you feel fantastic. However, as soon as the girl joins the orchestra, the atmosphere becomes marvellous.

McKenna showed what kind of vocal skills she possesses. Her singing is near perfection. The clear voice and the lyrics make this performance quite remarkable. However, the choir does its job wonderfully as well. The energy they transmit to the audience is just amazing.

Take a look at this performance. Since we are sure you have seen many different versions of the song, you don’t want to miss this one. Who knows, maybe this one will become your favorite performance of the well-known ‘Hallelujah’.

Callie is eighteen months old and she is already fighting for her life. This cute little girl has just started living her life when a devastating news was announced by the doctors. She has been diagnosed with neuroblastoma.

The disease has metastasized to her lymph nodes and bones. This kid’s fate is tragic and melts our hearts seeing her in a condition like that. Imagine her parents pain. They are always besides her, supporting Callie and providing the things she needs.

However, there are people on this planet who are just evil. The hate and cruelty in their words is just too much to bare. Believe it or not, these kinds of words have been addressed to the girl after her parents posted a link on their Facebook page. They posted their GoFundMe campaign.

The GoFundMe page was created by a family member. The idea was to collect donations that will help Callie fight the battle. The parent posted the link on their Facebook page in order to spread the news.

As it was expected, the family got donations for this cute little angel. Moreover, they received a lot of support by the community. However, one comment shocked them!

The comment posted on their Facebook page said:

“My prayers for Callie. I was going to donate $7600.00 to her fund, but I found out her parents are lesbian. I’ve chosen to donate to St. Jude due to that fact. Sorry. I’ll still pray for her though, but maybe it’s God’s way of getting your attention that she needs a mommy and a daddy, not two mommy’s.”

This was not welcomed by the majority of the people.

The parents replied:

“This is a very sick little girl, who’s life is on the line……for someone to actually send this and speak to my family in this way is utterly DISGUSTING……regardless of how you feel, don’t say a word. What Callie needs is love and support…..not hate and misery.”

Callie got all the support and attention from the people. The hopes were restored after the doctors’ new announcement. They explained:

“Callie will be starting round 5 of chemo on Monday! He also said that there will be no need for round 6 after that stem cell transplant. He said 98% of her tumor is dead!”

If you can, you are welcome to help Callie. This girl deserves to be happy and healthy again!
