Tragic update on 19-year-old with brain tumour who managed to stay alive to give birth

The sad story of Dana Scatton shook the nation. In December 2017, this young lady was diagnosed with a DIPG, an extremely rare brain cancer.

However, Dana was 29 weeks pregnant when the doctors revealed the terrible news. They also added that she had only 3 months to live.

Nevertheless, the doctors also emphasized that she should not worry about the baby’s safety since the radiation was not harmful to the baby itself. As a result, Dana gave birth to Aries Marie.

Unfortunately, in sorrow and sadness, Dana’s family announced some very tragic news.

Dana knew that she had to fight with the illness really hard. She had strong faith in God and she was a funny and positive person.

She was just 17 when the doctors informed her about the terrible and deadly disease.

The symptoms of the disease were difficulties while speaking, swallowing and even walking.

For The Advertiser, she said:

“I was really overtired. But things kept getting worse. I was forgetting to swallow, and my speech got weird. Then my legs started not responding to things—when I would walk, my legs would drag. That’s when I really got concerned.”

She was not left alone. The family was there to support her and encourage her.

Her story got the nation’s attention. Everyone was following her tragic story and prayed for her well-being.

Dana’s fate was so tragic. While pregnant, she had to go through difficult procedures in order to save her and her baby’s life. She indeed gave birth to a healthy and cute little baby.

Dana had several rounds of radiation but the symptoms were getting worse.

Instead of enjoying with the baby, she had to fight the memory loss, problems with her vision, pain, headache and chemotherapy.

“She was crying and once they put her on Dana’s chest, she stopped,” Scatton’s brother, Josiah Gundry said. “
The baby is doing really well … I told my boss about the birth, and he said, ‘One miracle down … one to go.’ ”
“When Dana was going in for the C-section, we were all anxious and stressing,” he said.
“And she was just calm. She told us, ‘Listen, it’s gonna be fine.’ I said to her, ‘I don’t know how you’re doing this.’
And she said to me, ‘I just try to trust in God.’”

Dana did not survive the battle. She passed away a week ago. Her family posted on Facebook the following:

“This morning shortly before 4 a.m., Dana left us to be with the lord”

They also added:

“She inspired us all to be better than who we are and to keep God in our focus at every moment. She faced the greatest fear of all, death, and smiled back with a grin only God can instill. She fought harder than the toughest warriors known to man and did it with grace and valor.”

Her funeral was on Friday and it was streamed on the Internet.

”We may never have the rights to say to truly honor the amazing, smart, loving, caring, passionate, incredibly beautiful and free spirited mother, daughter, niece, cousin, friend and independent woman Dana was every day.”

After the funeral, the family announced:

“Thank you for the support you’ve given Dana over the last 16 months. Thank you for never giving up on her and her fight. Thank you to everyone who joined us tonight in person and online to celebrate Dana. We feel very blessed that Dana was loved and supported by so many, from all over the world”.

Shortly before her death, Dana said:

“It was such a wake-up call. Getting death thrown in your face … it’s so real. It really shows you what’s true. This world doesn’t matter, it’s temporary, you know? When I found out, I immediately let the world go. It’s like, that doesn’t matter anymore. We have to look at the eternal life. We all think we have so much time … honestly, I feel thankful that I have this time to wake up and realize what’s right. And I want everybody to see that. Even though others didn’t get the news that I did, I want them to wake up. I feel blessed that I have this time to make things right–others don’t get that time–death happens in the blink of an eye.”

May God give you peace and rest among the Angels. You suffered a lot in this world so may God reward you in the next one.

Our prayers and support go to the Dana’s family. Such a tragic loss!!

Teens Groove To Music From The Past, Then Everything Changes

By

We may all speak different languages, but that of music is universal and everyone understands it. Nothing really has the power to unite people the way music does. Dancing to the rhythm gives you the feel of liberty and enjoyment, and some of the songs and melodies artists performed throughout the years became classics that never get out of style, even many years have passed by.

A group of high school performers gave their classmates a prom night to remember after they danced their way to the floor, leaving everyone in awe and great mood.

The show started with Ben E. King’s iconic song “Stand by Me” and switched to the all time classic “Let’s Twist Again” by Chubby Checker. Although some of the students weren’t even familiar with these evergreens, there is no doubt everyone just loved both the songs and their classmates’ dancing routine.

It’s not the first time for this type of routine to be performed, where dancing styles from various eras spanning the past 50 years are perfectly combined together. In fact, the person who came up with this “Evolution of Dance” is dancer Jason Laipply. When he first uploaded a video of himself dancing back in 2001, people went mad over the performance and it was quickly spread over the Internet like a wildfire.

Ever since the video saw the light of the day, hundreds of other artists were inspired to come up with their own versions of it.

The dancing of these young boys was entitled “New Evolution of Dance” and it turned their school’s prom night into a totally different and unique experience. It included hits from the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s and it made literally everyone move along the addictive rhythm. The boys weren’t afraid to show off their talent and skills in front of their friends as it was obvious they practiced it long and hard enough to nail it.

All you see is a bunch of teenagers twirling, bouncing, and laughing, and it’s awesome to say the least.

We are so glad these boys’ peers weren’t the only ones to enjoy the show. It was spread all over social media and we can’t help but fall in love with the way they move around.

This is definitely something you don’t want to miss. Take a look at it in the video below and tell us if you are familiar with all the dancing styles they rocked.

Woman Rewards Herself With Dramatic Makeover

The Makeover Guy and his excellent team attract clients from all over the country. Christopher Hopkins’ work is appreciated by thousands of women that have visited him. Laurel Shedeen from Hanover, Minnesota travelled all the way to the ‘Makeover Guy’ just to have a new fresh look. This positive lady made everyone laugh.

During the initial interview, Laurel explains that in the past she had gone to a beauty school. Therefore, she thought she knew how to style her hair and give herself the perfect look. However, after just few minutes with Christopher’s team she explains that she actually knows nothing. This team is just fantastic.

She doesn’t stop joking. Upon asking her what is her expectation from the makeover, she says that she would like to lose some 60 lbs and look like Jennifer Aniston. Everyone laughs and have fun with this interesting lady. However, what she didn’t know is that the team is not joking. They would give their best to turn Laurel into a gorgeous and fabulous lady.

Laurel’s hair before the makeover was long and wavy. The grey hair was losing its volume. Laurel explains that she rarely visits salons since she does her own hair. Laurel also shows how she does her own hair.

When she was younger she paid more attention to her hair and look. With the age, she cared less and less about the hair and the general look as a matter of fact. Now, truth to be told, she forgot many techniques that she used in the past. However, thanks to Christopher and his team, she again learnt how to take a proper care of her hair. She explains:

“I want to learn how to look good again. I’m not trying to be 30 again but I don’t want to look 70, either.”

As expected, the people who saw the video simply loved this fascinating makeover. They left many positive comments. One person said:

“What a happy video! She looks stunning and her vivacious personality really shines through! Way to go everyone!”

Another one posted:

“Omgoodness! I bet she made you all laugh the entire day! Total package right there…. looking good and a sense of humor!! Fantastic!”

Third person wrote:

“Fabulous, I gasped when I saw her reveal. She looks rejuvenated.”

Upon asking her what her husband’s opinion would have been, she says:

“A few years ago, I went to beauty school and walked out with purple hair. And he said I lived with the purple, I can live with anything. I think he’ll like this.”

Take a look at this fantastic makeover.

Barry Weiss, the star of the popular A&E “Storage Wars” was involved in a motorcycle accident which left him with severe injuries. TMZ reports he suffered broken bones and other internal injuries.

The accident took place on Wednesday, April 24, when a car driver pulled out his vehicle from a parking space without paying attention to the people around him and hit Barry and his friend.

Currently, Weiss is still at the hospital where he recovers and his condition is stable. His friend Jamie suffered less serious injuries and ended up with a broken knee, elbow and wrist. He later posted a video from the crash scene and a photo of him at the hospital writing, “Not a good day at the office, a serious crash today while out riding with a friend. I got lucky, only a broken knee, elbow and wrist. My friend is much worse and has serious chest and leg trauma. Please send your prays to Barry.”

“Barry is a larger-than-life character with a story for every situation, and his colorful personality brings out the best and the worst of the people around him”, the A&E states.

Social media users are sending well wishes and hope the 68-year-old star recovers fast and continues enjoying his motorcycles and cars.

Mom fights off man after he attempted to sexually assault her 2-year-old daughter

By

We, parents, wish nothing but safe and happy lives for our kids. Our main concerns are about the well-being of the children.

Of course, no matter what we do, we can never make sure that the kid is always under our care and protection. Sometimes, places which look like safe and secure may hide some unwanted dangers.

This was particularly true for one Kansas City mother named Christa Moore. She took her daughter to a nearby playground.

However, this enclosed playground brought very unpleasant experience to the mother. She left her 2-year old daughter explore the playground, not even considering the possible dangers that may hide in such places.

That particular afternoon was reserved for fun and joy. The kid loves that place because many other kids are having fun there as well. The mother sat aside and watched her kid.

The mother and the kid were in Kemp Park in Kansas City. The kid was having fun on the swings.

The peaceful and happy moments were about to turn into something terrible. That alerted the mother and made her react immediately.

What the mother noticed was a man, which according to her, ‘eyeballed’ her daughter.

The suspicious man made her pay close attention to her daughter. She was even more shocked to witness how that terrifying situation started developing right in front of her eyes.

Later, she explained that she saw the man started walking towards her daughter. He even dared to lift her from the swing.

What he did next petrified the mother. The man pulled down the girl’s diaper and her pants.

She immediately started running towards her daughter.

The later police investigation and reports show that the man’s name was William Bates Jr. According to the reports, the mother knocked the man down.

Bates lost his balance and fell. The mother got on top of him. Her intention was to keep the man there until the authorities arrive.

However, the man managed to get away and ran off. Next, Christa called the police. For KCTV she says:

“I don’t get how anyone would hurt a child like that. He walked up toward my daughter and the next thing I know, he’s grabbing her pants and ripped them down. He ripped her diaper when he did it.”

She also adds:

“I just wanted to hurt him.”

Luckily, the police found the man. Bates was caught nearby. He was caught with marijuana and some unidentified chemical fluid.

According to the reports, Bates told the authorities that he has been given a cigarette by unknown person and therefore he didn’t remember what had happened.

He also adds that he thought that he had been drugged.

Nevertheless, this arrest triggered the community and they demand higher level of safety in the neighbourhood and the city.

Christa’s bravery paid off. Thanks to her on-time reaction, a terrible outcome is avoided.

Share and spread the news. Let’s contribute in our kids’ safety and well-being.

Woman makes man who groped her cry, but people don’t think she has the right

By

A woman from Arizona was praised by the females from all over the country and beyond for what she did to the man who treated her with disrespect. This story should teach any person like this rude guy a lesson.

While Krystal Olsen, 32, was on the job at the bar where she works, she approached a group of guys asking what they wanted to drink, when one of them reached up her skirt and grabbed her rear end. This made Olsen furious and deeply offended and she wasn’t going to let him off the hook for his rude behavior.

She decided to stand up for herself and dragged the man out of the place in a chokehold.

The man then slammed Olsen up against a wall and believed he did nothing wrong when he touched her inappropriately. The guys from the security stepped in and got Olsen out of the man’s hands. She then called the police.

Once he realized cops were on their way and that he was likely ending up at the police station, he started crying like a little baby.

As a sweet revenge, Olsen took a picture of him and posted in on Twitter, writing, “This guy grabbed my a**, I dragged him out in a chokehold, he slammed me into a wall. And he is crying like a b**** when he got arrested.”

As her post vent viral, many women said how the way she handled the situation was worth a praise. She wouldn’t let a total stranger humiliate her that way.

“If more men got their a**** beat for for harassing/assaulting women they’d learn quickly that a woman’s body belongs to no one but herself,” wrote one commenter.

“I have three daughters,” wrote one concerned parent. “I hope they do the same.”

“You are awesome and I want my daughter to grow up to be just like you,” another person added.

There were also those who said how posting the crying man’s photo was sort of mean. But we believe this girl had all the right to do it so he won’t do the same thing to another woman ever again.

Police Officer Writing Traffic Ticket Gets Distracted by the Cutest Kitten

By

A very interesting video was posted on the Internet. It involves a kitten, a police officer, and a driver. This cannot be seen everyday and is so funny.

Keith Urban, a policeman, was doing a routine traffic stop. This is a normal routine for Urban, but this time it was different. When he stopped a car, a nice and friendly cat interrupted the check.

Thanks to the dash camera of the police car we can see this rare incident. For Taylor Daily Press, Urban said:

“I think the driver of that vehicle was laughing a little bit … And the driver even offered to get out of the vehicle and remove the cat.”

As it can be seen from the video, the cat was very friendly. Urban also added that he felt sorry because be had to ‘shoot the cat away’. However, the cat came back again!

So funny. Take a look at the video.

Note: The video does not have any sound.

Marine Breaks Down in Tears Before Even Reaching Family When He Lays Eyes on Newborn Son

By

Seeing your child for the first time right after they are welcomed into the world is priceless. That’s a moment every parent keeps close to the heart and cherishes forever. The military men, however, don’t always get to see their loved ones giving birth to their offspring because it happens that they are deployed exactly at the time of the due date. That’s really sad, we must say.

Marine Cpl. Brandon Crespo is one of those brave men who missed the birth of his son because he was serving in another country. According to Little Things, the sweet baby was born on June 13, 2018 and the proud father could only listen to the baby’s tiny voice but didn’t get the chance to be there by his wife’s side.

But now, after six months spent away from his family, this father would finally meet baby Noah. He was beyond excited to hold him in his hands and kiss him.

The cute and very emotional video of the father-son first ever encounter was shared online and on Ellen DeGeneres’ site too. It was quickly spreaded around and people agree how it was one of the best family reunions they’ve ever seen. Ellen thought so too and invited them to be her guests on the show.

“It was definitely hard…” Francis shared, explaining that sometimes they only talked once a month while Brandon was on the ship. “Having to go through pregnancy all by myself, it was definitely difficult…”

Our favorite host was as kind and as generous as always and together with Shutterfly they gave the family $20,000. They would use the money to go on the honeymoon they never had.

“When we first posted the video it was just for family members,” Francis told Ellen.
“We’re just regular people,” she added.

Brandon starts crying even before he reaches his loving wife and his newborn son, and we can’t hold our tears back as we are flooded with emotions. This is all so touching.

Woman’s post about the pressures on working moms goes viral for how real it is.

By

Being a mom is something most women want to experience in their life. However, many have no idea of how challenging it is to be raising a child. Because it’s not just the baby you take care of. The commitments you had before you even gave birth to that sweet bundle of joy are still there, waiting for you to fulfill them.

A Facebook post by a mother that goes viral speaks of all the pressure working moms, and all moms in general feel every day. Needless to say, many sympathize with the writer of the post and say how they feel completely the same.

Sarah Buckley Friedberg made a list and spoke of everything women are expected to do. And the reality is that they really manage to complete of all the tasks and achieve the unachievable.

“Society to working moms:
-Go back to work 6-8 weeks after having the baby. The baby that you spent 9-10 months growing inside of your body. Go back to work before you have finished healing or have had time to bond with your baby. Keep your mind on work, and not your tiny helpless baby that is being watched and cared for by someone other than you. Make sure to break the glass ceiling and excel at your job- you can do anything a man can do! It is your job to show society this! Show the world that women can do it all. Rise to the top of your career.”

“Also breastfeed for at least a year. So take 2-3 pumping breaks a day at work, but don’t let it throw you off your game or let you lose your focus.
-Also, lose that baby weight and get back in shape, as quickly and as gracefully as possible. Make sure to get 8 hours of sleep a night so you can work out, work, and care for your family. But also get up at 5 am to workout, unless you want to do it after your kids go to bed when you also need to clean the house and get life ready for the next day and you know, sleep.”

“Maintain a clean, pinterest worthy house. Take the Christmas lights down. Recycle. Be Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, the birthday planner, the poop doula (seriously when will this end), the finder of lost things, the moderator of fights. Be fun. Be firm. Read books. Have dance parties.”

“Maintain the schedule for the entire family. Birthday parties coming up? Make sure to have presents! Ensure the kids are learning to swim, play an instrument, read, ride a bike, be a good human being, eat vegetables, wear sunscreen, drink enough water, say please and thank you. Don’t forget they need to dress as their favorite book character on Monday, and wear something yellow on Thursday. Oh it’s totally your call but most parents come in on their birthday and read to the entire class.

“In case nobody told you, if you have more than one kid you will need to buy new shoes approximately every other day. See also: winter coats, shorts, pants that aren’t 4 inches too short. There will never be matching socks or gloves for any member of the family, ever again.
-Remember the dog you got before you had kids? Shes getting old now and needs expensive surgery. She also need walking, a new bed, and she smells pretty bad.”

“Hey! Kids need lots of doctor appointments. Monthly as babies. Every time they are sick. Specialist appointments, especially if any of them have extra needs. At least two school conferences a year. IEP meetings, if applicable. Parents night. Back to school night. Get to know your school night (what IS this). Most parents are volunteering at least once during the year, would you like to come make a craft with the kids? It will only be an hour or two of your time.”

“Sorry, you are now out of vacation time because you used it all for time taking your kids to appointments or when your childcare is unavailable. You should go on vacations though. It’s good to relax and unwind from work. Makes you a better employee.
-Don’t forget the kids need healthy meals (and so do you! you are trying to lose that last 20 lbs before swim season right). That requires meal planning, grocery shopping, and meal prep on the weekend. But also hang out with your kids on the weekend since during the week you only get to hang out with them when they are exhausted and angry that you made the wrong kind of spaghetti for dinner.”

“Date your spouse! It’s important to keep your relationship alive and fresh. Try to go out 1-2 times a month. Good, kid free time. Hire a babysitter, they charge 22+ dollars an hour in your area so make sure to take out an extra mortgage and/or work another job to be able to afford this.
-Oh hey you should have a hobby too. It’s important to have “you time”. Also be well read, keep up with the latest pop culture and tv shows, and keep an eye on politics and be able to discuss at least one of the above on the small chance you are out in public and encounter another adult necessitating small talk.”

“Make sure to have friends. Social time is SO important. Surely there is an hour or two left in the week after all of the working, appointments, exercising, cooking, scheduling, cleaning, imparting lifelong morals and learning on the kids, the usual. Maybe go out after the kids are down for a glass of wine and a bite to eat. Make it a healthy bite though. And you may regret that wine at your 530 am spin class.”

“Self care though. SO important. See also: getting in shape. See the general doctor, the dentist (TWICE), the lady doctor. Prob need to get your eyes checked. Full body skin checks 2+ times a year (just me? okay well). Mental health too. Postpartum anxiety? But you look fine and your kids are so cute. Everyone should have a therapist. Good luck finding one that takes your insurance and has hours outside of your normal working time (out of vacation time, remember?). That leaves evening time when you want to hang out with your kids. But it’s important, so make time for it.”

“Don’t wear yoga pants and a mom bun or society is going to mock you in numerous witty blog posts. Never mind that nothing fits. Going to have to get up even earlier so you have time to style your hair, wing your eye liner and search for a pair of pants that fits your new post baby (or multiple baby) shape.”

“Get off your phone, turn off the TV, and enjoy your life. Enjoy your kids. THESE ARE THE GOOD TIMES make sure to love every minute of life because before you know it all of this will be in the past.
I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to lean OUT. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.”

The post has reached more than 20k likes and shares from mommy’s from all around the world.

Foster Mom Starved And Drugged Orphan Boy For 8 Years To Claim Benefits Which She Splurged On Luxuries

By

Monica Pop

Human cruelty has no limits. A woman from Russia shocked the world after she treated the young boy she fostered in the most inhumane way possible. She starved him and drugged him only to be able to use government’s money which she later spent on luxuries.

This is not the first case of foster parents to be using the system in order to benefit from the poor children they are supposed to treat with love and care. However, this one is one of the most severe we’ve ever heard of. When
Lyubov Korotkova took the boy under her wing, she only had one thing in mind. To fool the state and enjoy all the funds she was getting in order to satisfy her personal needs.

Daily Mail has reported how the little boy’s ordeal that took place in her home lasted for long eight years. Not only she starved him, but she also drugged him and gave him different medicine in order for the sweet boy to look ill. She then claimed how he suffered from a rare and inexplicable disease. Looking at the child, he really appeared as he was suffering from something very serious as he was skin and bones.

When her mean intentions were finally brought to a day light, the court sentenced her to six years in prison and she was charged for “special cruelty, humiliation, and torture.” During the years Valery Kondourov, who’s now 11 years old, was living with the wicked woman, she was able to claim around £50,000 in state handouts. Despite serving jail time, the court ordered for her to pay all the money back. She is also expected to pay young Valery £8,000 in ‘moral damages.’

We are so lucky this monster ended behind bars, although we believe her sentence is mild considering the damage she caused to the boy she was supposed to love.

Korotkova not only fooled the doctors, but the whole community too. She collected the sympathy from the people of Magadan, the city where she lives, who hailed her a hero for fostering such an ill child. No one could ever imagine Valery was in fact perfectly healthy and she was the one who neglected him and starved him in purpose.
Svetlana Petrenko, of the Russian Federal Investigative Committee said, “The malnutrition was so severe that the 11-year-old boy had the weight of a four-year-old child.”

“For eight years she deliberately was not feeding her fostered child in order to register him as disabled and receive benefits and sickness payments. During all these years the woman was seeing many different doctors with her child, asking them to check him for multiple diseases, including cancer. As a result, the doctors – who were cheated – could not pinpoint the right diagnosis,” Petrenko said. Luckily, one of the doctors found the whole thing suspicious and detected Korotkova’s fraud.

After Valery was taken from the hands of the foster family, he underwent a thorough medical check-up and it was determined how he didn’t suffer from any illnesses. He was just malnourished and at eleven years old he was only 3 feet 5 inches tall, which is what a five year old should look like.

Korotkova’s husband Andrei claimed he didn’t take part in the mistreatment as he wasn’t aware what his wife was doing to the boy they both cared for.

In order for teachers and other people not to realize the boy was in fact healthy, she refused to let him go to school and home-schooled him instead. Regarding Valery’s case, the investigative committee said, “Having cheated the doctors, she managed to register her child as handicapped… and started receiving financial assistance, compensation and other allowances.”

Her neighbors and those who believed she was an angel for taking care of Valery were left in complete shock and couldn’t believe what was happening behind closed doors.

Some members of the community who didn’t want to believe Korotkova was guilty for what he was charged with staged a public campaign asking for the child to be given back to her. Kremlin children’s ombudsman Anna Kuznetsova prevented this from happening.

Korotkova pleaded not guilty for the gruesome act but she was still convicted with “intentional infliction of a grave injury, to a minor (leaving him) in a helpless state.”

She could be seen crying after hearing the verdict.

Luckily, Valery got a second chance in life and is now living with a family who loves him unconditionally. His current foster mom Svetlana Suleimanova is taking great care of him. This woman who has five children on her own has raised eight foster kids. Speaking to The Siberian Times, Svetlana said, “Doctors invited me to inspect the boy. They said they did not find any illnesses but registered strange behavior. The boy quickly ate everything as soon as his mother left the room, but when she was present, he was naughty and said that he was not hungry. He confessed to me later that his mother forced him to say he did not have any appetite. She punished him if he did not obey. She was also giving him some pills and he was always vomiting afterward.”

We pray for sweet Valery to be able to overcome the consequences of the ordeal he was forced to go through.

Air Force veteran drops to his knees crying after total strangers show up at apartment with furniture

War veterans deserve all the gratitude in this world for their sacrifice was huge and must never be forgotten. Sadly, many of these people experience hard life once they return to their homeland. Many suffer from PTSD and other stress related conditions. The number of those veterans who fail to get used to the life home and can’t find another job is also huge.

Air Force veteran Ron Hyde didn’t have it easy in life. He was now home, but his health condition was poor as he had cancer and decided to end the chemo treatments he was getting. Living all by himself in a tiny apartment, with only a mattress, didn’t break this man’s spirit. Although he had no furniture and no money, he was still thankful he had a place to call a home.

One event, however, changed Hyde’s days and brought a little happiness in his life.

Hyde visited Goodwill in hopes of finding a nice chair for his place. He purchased a pink one and he loved it, but the thing was that he didn’t know how to get it home as he couldn’t find anyone with a vehicle large enough.

That’s when a woman from Ramona posted online, asking for a good Samaritan to help Hyde transport the chair to his El Cajon, California, home. Although she hoped someone would come across her plea and offer help, neither she, nor Hyde ever though so many people would step in.

Just two days after the purchase, Hyde spotted a large U-haul in front of his home. He had no idea it was full with brand new furniture, and that it was all for him. As he saw people from the neighborhood bringing all that stuff in, he couldn’t contain his excitement.

He just knelled at the kitchen’s counter and shed tears of joy. This veteran’s faith in humanity was restored.

“Who knows how much time he has left?”

one person asked, knowing Hyde was battling cancer.

“But we can at least make it comfortable — he doesn’t have to live on a mattress in the corner.”

Hyde says what he experienced was “a real miracle.” He can now call his place a home. We wish he recovers completely and spend his days in happiness.

Brazilian Couple Transforms Barren Land Into Tropical Forest

“Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we cannot eat money.” This Cree Indian saying gives humans a lot to ponder over, but looking at all the deforestation that takes place all around the world, it seems we are not concerned for our planet’s well-being enough in order to act and stop its destruction.

The global warming is a real issue, and it results in increased average of temperatures and temperature extremes, higher wildlife extinction rates, increased levels of the seas and the oceans. The consequences really are devastating, but if we all work together, and if we start acting right away, maybe there’s still chance to save our planet.

A couple from Brazil has done the impossible. They started saving what’s left of our shared home and we should all learn from them.

Sebastião Salgado, a photojournalist was reporting the genocide in Rwanda back in 1994 and the experience left a huge impact on him. He got back to his homeland of Minas Gerais to rest from the traumatizing events he was covering while on the job, but what he stumbled upon was a barren land. The forests he once loved were gone and lots of animals were endangered.

“The land was as sick as I was – everything was destroyed,” Sebastião said. “Only about 0.5% of the land was covered in trees.”

What this man and his wife Lélia had in mind seemed like a pipe dream, but they were willing to give the idea of replanting the entire forest a go. Believe it or not, that’s exactly what they did.

It all started with the purchase of an abandoned cattle ranch and strong determination. The spouses called for volunteers and secured funding for their plan to turn into reality. After funding their non-profit organization, Instituto Terra back in 1999, they planted the first tree.

The results of 20 years of hard work are more than two million trees of 293 species, 1,502 acres of tropical forest, dried water springs brought back to life, and more than 172 species of birds, 33 species of mammals, and 15 species of amphibians and reptiles living in the area. The amazing forest is now considered a Private Natural Heritage Reserve.

This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in my whole life.

It’s really incredible what the effort of these people resulted in. Now imagine if every single person is as devoted as this couple and the volunteers.

Salgado is very proud of what they were able to achieve. He says:

“Thanks to this increase of the trees I, too, was reborn – this was the most important moment.”

Sebastião and Lélia hope their actions will encourage others to do the same and help this planet become healthy place again.

“We need to listen to the words of the people on the land. Nature is the earth and it is other beings and if we don’t have some kind of spiritual return to our planet, I fear that we will be compromised,” Sebastião added.

We can all try to make a contribution. Our personal goal should be one tree at a time. Let’s save this planet!

Jimmy Kimmel’s son Billy celebrates second birthday after surviving two heart surgeries

By

Easter is that special time of the year when we celebrate life, but Jimmy Kimmel, our favorite face on television, had another reason to be extra joyful on that day. His youngest son Billy turned two.

Billy was born with a congenital heart condition and had to undergo surgery only three days after he was welcomed into the world. Those were tough times for the family, but the brave little baby managed to overcome the condition. He had his second surgery when he turned 7 months, and he’s now doing fine and brings happiness in his family.

Back in 2017, Jimmy opened up about his son’s condition in a monologue in which he made a plea for the government to continue financially covering the health care of children with preexisting conditions, especially for the families who weren’t able to cover the expenses on their own.

He also used the opportunity to publicly thank the doctors who treated Billy, as well as the rest of the medical staff who were devoted to his healing.

A yr ago today, God gave us this tough little boy. Today, we thank the nurses & doctors at @CedarsSinai & @ChildrensLA who saved his life & those who shared thoughts & prayers. We cannot stay quiet. Please wish Billy happy birthday by REGISTERING TO VOTE! https://t.co/vp1QTi4h9H pic.twitter.com/DXCalxIs94
— Jimmy Kimmel (@jimmykimmel) April 21, 2018

Now, as he wished his son a happy birthday, he again spoke of the effort made by the doctors and how they were the reason his son is now one happy child.

The photo he posted on his Instagram account melted the hearts of people from all around the world. Smiling and holding a carrot in his hand, little Billy made our Easter a bit more special as he reminded us how brave he is.

Jimmy’s wife, Molly McNearney also took it to social media to wish her boy a happy birthday and to thank all the nurses and doctors at Children’s Hospital LA for saving Billy’s life. She wrote, “Sending love and prayers to all the families in the hospital today and always.”

Baby born so premature her chances of survival are slim – watch what happens when mom holds her for the first time

By

Monica Pop

God always finds a way to remind us how miracles are everywhere around us; all we need to do is to look and embrace them.

Naomi Bakker’s parents were the happiest people on Earth when they learned Angela was pregnant, and they couldn’t wait to meet their sweet daughter. However, the baby girl entered the world earlier than her mommy and daddy expected her. Born 15 weeks premature and weighting only one pound, tiny Naomi’s chances to survive were slim.

She was one of the smallest babies born in Reno, Nevada. Naomi needed round the clock care, and the staff at Renown Regional Medical Center Neonatal Intensive Care Unit were there to provide her with all the love, care, and devotion possible. They worked really hard to keep the baby alive and healthy, and never left her side.

However, both the doctors and the nurses were aware how the most important of all was the affection the little baby would get from her parents. They were certain that if her mother Angela was given the chance to hold her baby daughter, it would facilitate the process of recovery a great deal. So they did something very uncommon. They let the mother embrace her daughter, and it was a moment to remember.

The main reason why the staff decided to let Angela and Michael hold the baby was because the benefits of skin-to-ski touch are numerous. Once the little bundle of joy feels the mother’s presence and touch, it feels more relaxed and calm. Plus, this contact helps the babies better adapt to the life outside the womb, and regulates their heart rate and breathing. It also stimulates digestion, provides protection against infections, and regulates the body temperatures. The advantages are countless, really.

Naomi, however, was so tiny that eight nurses helped transferring her from her bubble to her mother’s chest.

Angela couldn’t hide her happiness and excitement. She was finally able to hold her baby. It was obvious she’d been waiting for this precious moment since the day Naomi was born.

The look on her face says it all. She simply can’t stop smiling. This is just a proof that nothing really beats mother’s love, does it?

Angela and Michael were allowed to hold their daughter every single day during her long stay at the hospital, and that gave them strength to fight for her life.

Thanks to the parents and the dedicated staff, Naomi is now four years old and she’s one happy and healthy young lady. Looking at her now, we would’ve never assumed she was once lighter than a can of beans.

Ellen reunites Marine with his wife and baby he never met

By

I don’t even want to imagine celebrating my kids’ birthday, or going through labor without my husband by my side. Unfortunately, the spouses of the military men and women experience this all the time. Moms and dads, and husbands and wives miss a lot while serving the country and making sure the nation is safe and sound.

The reason families are separated from their loved ones for months is why the so much anticipated reunions are always full of emotions. Watching these people get back home is what fills our hearts with joy.

Corporal Christopher Gerren has been deployed to Afghanistan for seven long and tough months. His wife Jessica gave birth to their son Remington while he was away, and he wasn’t there to see his baby boy entering the world.

Both Jessica and their two children were patiently waiting for their hero to get back home.

The story of this family takes an amazing turn when our favorite host Ellen DeGeneres steps in and welcomes Jessica to her show. The reason Jessica believed was invited was to speak of the life of women whose husbands are deployed abroad, never assuming the surprise of her life was waiting for her right there at the studio.

As they were chatting, Corporal Gerren appeared on the screen. Jessica was lucky to see him, even though he wasn’t physically present. But that was about to change too. At one moment, Ellen paused the show due to what she referred to as ‘a technical glitch.’ The reality was that Corporal Gerren was about to enter the place. Once Jessica saw her husband standing next to her, she couldn’t hide her excitement. She had no idea he returned to the States, but he was really there and she and the kids could finally embrace him.

Ellen, however, did a lot more for this loving family. She learned how they’ve never been on a honeymoon and she wanted to give them the chance to enjoy themselves. Jessica and Christopher were getting an all-expenses paid trip to St. Lucia. On top of that, Ellen gave them $10,000.We are so glad the Gerrens were given the chance to be around each other again.

Ellen is really one-of-a-kind. She knows how to thank those who sacrifice it all for the sake of our country and we love her even more because of that.

Plant Causes Severe Burns And Even Blindness And Is Now Spreading Quickly. Here’s What You Should Know

By

Spring and nice weather have finally come and that means its time for some fun in the nature. Everyone likes having a great walk in the woods and enjoy the tranquillity the nature provides. Whether you are alone, with friends or family, the fun and joy is always there. However, being in the nature means there are some potential dangers we have to be aware of. Besides animals, plants also can be somehow dangerous to us and our health. Some plants are even deadly, the experts warn us.

Giant Hogweed is one of those plants that are definitely in the group of dangerous plants. Its Latin name is Heracleum mantegazzianum. It used to thrive in certain parts of the world, but now it is spread in more areas. Many people now can easily encounter this plant but they still do not know the danger it hides. A single touch means burns or in the worst case blindness.

In the USA, this plant can be found in Maryland, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Vermont, Virginia and Washington. It can grow up to 14 feet in height and its diameter can be up to 5 feet.

People gave different names to the plant. Among the most popular names of the plant are giant cow parsnip, giant cow parsley, cartwheel-flower, or hogsbane.

It has thick stem. There are also white hairs and beautiful white flowers. The beauty of the plant hides the danger. Do not touch it.

The actual danger comes from the sap of the plant. It contains some dangerous chemicals such as photosynthesizing furanocoumarins. This chemical is responsible for the sever burns.

Usually the burns are accompanied by blisters. The blisters show up in a period of 48 hours and the scars are long-lasting.

However, what’s even more dangerous is the possibility of causing blindness. If the chemical touches the eyes, the blindness is the possible outcome.

However, accidents happen and if you do come in touch with it, just wash the affected area with cold water. Also do not expose it to the sun.

Sunscreen works fine if you are outside. This helps removing the skin irritation.

Same procedure should be followed if it touches your eyes. Wash the eyes with cold water and wear sunglasses.

When dancing is your thing, you don’t even need a dance floor to rock. Moving to the rhythm flawlessly, without missing a single beat isn’t something many people can brag about, but not this baby. He’s a real performer in the making.

For the incredible show, he chose a song with a vibrant melody, “Boom Chicka Boom” by The Learning Station. We guess lullabies aren’t really fit for such a bubbly baby.

Wearing a crazy outfit of a diaper and a paper Krispy Kreme hat, he gives a performance to remember. We are so glad his mother, Elizabeth Burns, was able to put everything on tape and share it with the world.

The sweet toddler is moving his tiny butt back and forth like no one is watching, or as he really doesn’t care who’s around, and it’s adorable. And if you take a closer look at the facial expressions he makes, it’s certain he’s ready to win any lip-sync challenge.

Just take a look at him. It doesn’t get any cuter than this, don’t you think so?

Take a look at the video below and enjoy one of the sweetest dancing routines you’ve ever seen.

How a 12-year-old boy’s death after an asthma attack led to a change in the law

By

Monica Pop

-

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 1 in 13 Americans suffer from asthma, which leads to the staggering number of 26 million. Although this disease is not completely curable, it’s eminently controllable. It’s a condition in which the airways narrow and swell, and that results in coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath.

The number of children affected is pretty much the same as that of the older population. Those who experience asthma attacks must have their inhalers at hand any time, because without them, the consequences could be fatal. Unfortunately, 12-year-old Ryan Gibbons didn’t have his medicine when he experienced the symptoms and suffered a tragic death as a result.

The tragedy struck during a soccer game at school. At the moment of the attack, Ryan’s medication was locked at the principal’s office and getting to it on time was simply impossible.

That absurd policy of keeping the inhalers away from the children during school time resulted in a young life being lost. Poor Ryan would always carry a spare inhaler, but once someone would notice it, they would confiscate it from him.

If he had reached his medication, he could have been alive.

Ryan’s mother, Sandra Gibbons says how they made numerous pleas to the Elgin County School in Ontario, Canada, asking for Ryan to be allowed to have his puffer next to him at all time. They even had a doctor’s note that said he shouldn’t be left without his medication. But it was all in vain.

The boy was dead, and his family and the whole nation were left heartbroken. Ryan’s death could have been easily avoided, but it wasn’t only because the school decided to follow some stupid rules.

Sandra recalls how the school had contacted her on several occasions, asking from her to get to school and pick her son’s extra inhaler. This mother would always make sure her son had one in his hands, just in case of emergency, because no one really knows when an attack may take place or what exactly triggers one to happen.

”You would give him an inhaler but then he would get caught with the inhaler and then it would be taken away,” Sandra Gibbons said, speaking to CBC.

”Then I’d get a phone call. So it was actually very frustrating. I didn’t understand why. I didn’t realize that the policy actually stated that the prescribed medication needed to be in the office.”

After she lost her son, Sandra was determined to make schools adopt standardized asthma management plans. She knew no other parent should ever experience the pain of losing a child in such a manner.

This brave mother succeeded in making all three parties to pass a private member’s bill from Progressive Conservative Jeff Yurek.

“When Ryan passed away, it was like losing everything that I lived for,” Gibbons told Allergic Living. “After burying my son, I knew that this was a preventable attack. To me, if people had appropriate training and knew what to look for when a child was in distress, he would be here today.”

Her determination to help other children suffering from asthma attacks keep themselves safe while at school resulted with the Ryan’s Law. Bill 135 has been passed and all the parties stand behind the legislature.

The law allows students to carry their life-saving devices in their backpacks or pockets, along with a doctor’s note.

“I’m definitely overwhelmed, very emotional, very happy it’s going to be implemented,” said Sandra Gibbons.

Dr. Rob Oliphant, the president of The Asthma Society says “it is essential that children with asthma have ready access to potentially life-saving asthma medications while at school.”

Contrary to Canada’s laws, American children are allowed to carry their inhalers with them during school time. However, some schools ban them and base this decision on their anti-drug policies.

The number of deaths as a result of asthma attacks declined in recent years, but that’s not a reason for students to be denied access to their medicine whenever they need it.

We hope Ryan’s tragic death would make all countries reconsider their decision of forbidding anyone full access to something that can save their life.

Rest in piece sweet Ryan. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

After a bigoted hardware store owner posted a ‘No Gays Allowed’ sign, he got roasted on Yelp.

By

Nicole

-

In 2015 the gay marriage was legalized by the U.S. Supreme Court. However, in 2018 the Court also added that the people have the right to oppose it. Since then, people were encouraged, or empowered, to oppose that given right.

One such example was the baker’s case in Colorado. A gay couple wanted to order a wedding cake from the Baker, but he actually turned them down. The case ended up in court. During the proceeding, the baker cited his Christian beliefs and pointed them out as a reason for the opposition. Therefore, the court ruled 7-2 in favour of the baker.

“The laws and the Constitution can, and in some instances must, protect gay persons and gay couples in the exercise of their civil rights,” the court found, “but religious and philosophical objections to gay marriage are protected views and in some instances protected forms of expression.”

https://twitter.com/shossy2/status/1005619777212223489

Since then, bigots have been encouraged to refuse providing services to gay couples by relying on the ‘religious freedom’ right. Another such case, besides the baker’s one, is the Jeff Amyx, owner of Amyx Hardware and Roofing Supplies in Washburn, Tennessee.

In 2018, Amyx decided to put some anti-gay signs in his shop. He has put these: “No gays allowed,” “Choose god or gays,” and “We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who would violate our rights of freedom of speech and freedom of religion.” This was quickly spread virally and Amyx became a target of the Internet community who found these signs inappropriate.

The most important question regarding such cases is why people are losing potential profit and customers just to push their point of view?

Everyone who was angry by Amyx’s actions slammed his business on Yelp.

Google users when they review his business even categories his store as a gay bar.

However, after some time, Yelp decided to clean up the negative reviews.

“This business recently made waves in the news, which often means that people come to this page to post their views on the news,” Yelp said in a statement. “While we don’t take a stand one way or the other when it comes to these news events, we do work to remove both positive and negative posts that appear to be motivated more by the news coverage itself than the reviewer’s personal consumer experience with the business.”

On the other hand, Google did not do that. They are still listing his shop as a gay bar. In addition, the negative comments have not been removed.

People should understand that we are equal and we have equal rights. Since religious groups have the right to practice their religions freely, why shouldn’t homosexual people enjoy their rights and feel the benefits of the country they live in? It turns out that the country has yet to empower its laws and protect people’s rights.

Relieve back pain and sciatica with only a tennis ball and these simple exercises

By

Back pain is definitely the most common among the people. People of different age suffer from back pain. The researchers say 8 out of 10 Americans have some problems with the back.

Tightly connected to the back pain is the sciatica. It is caused by problems with the sciatic nerve. This nerve starts from the lower part of the back and goes into both legs.

Lower level of physical activity and obesity are the major causes for the back pain, the experts say.

The pain is really bad. When the problems with the back do occur, we usually take some pills or some stronger drugs. However, the doctors and people who deal with healthy living style suggest other possibilities.

Sometimes a simple tool or exercise can be quite useful in dealing with such problems.

Another proven method of easing the pain is cooling the affected part of the body. In addition to that, acupuncture and chiropractic treatments are also useful.

Moreover, expert say that yoga exercises are also very beneficial for back pain sufferers.

The video below shows some common exercises that may help you in such situations.

As we all know, unless the pain goes away by itself, it is there to make us uncomfortable. Luckily, there is this exercise with a tennis ball that can make you feel better.

The exercise starts with putting the tennis ball in the affected area. Then, start putting pressure on the tennis ball. Therefore, the muscle tension is relieved.

According to the Healthy.Shared, in case of sciatica, the ball targets the piriformis muscle which is near the sciatic nerve itself.

At the beginning, the pain is intense, so you shouldn’t worry too much. That’s a good sign to continue with the exercise. Apply pressure and endure the exercise.

Pressure on the spot should be applied for 30 or 60 seconds. Then move to another spot. The whole exercise is from 5 to 10 minutes.

The expert in this video demonstrates this exercise for you.

Experts also advise to be aware of your posture and don’t sit for longer than an hour.

Please share this very important advice with your friends and family, they’ll thank you for it.

Teen who stabbed a man to death over coffee gets 20 years in jail in a case that shocked the nation

By

A minor incident, which actually may happen to all of us, resulted with the death of an innocent man in Connecticut.

Antonio Muralles, age 52, bought his coffee in the local McDonald’s and he was on his way out. As soon as he started walking along the street, he bumped into two teenage kids, Marquest Hall and James McLamb.

As he bumped in the teenagers, unintentionally he spilled his coffee on them. As we all do in such circumstances, he apologized both of them for the unwanted situation. However, the teenagers did not think like that.

According to Daily Mail, the teenagers did not accept the apology and started threatening the man.

The 15-year old Marquest Hall stabbed the innocent man several times. Ironically and cruelly, he was repeatedly asking the man if he wanted to die.

The tragedy, however, happened.

The attack started with James punching the man. In just a few seconds after the punch, Hall started stubbing the man.

Muralles fell on the ground. However, this was not a reason for the boys to stop. They continued attacking him. The last stab was in his heart, which turned out to be fatal.

However, the investigation proved that this was not the only incident that Hall tried to create. Prior that attack, Hall was trying to come up with a reason for attacking a man with a walking stick.

Unfortunately, very soon, he saw Muralles and he found a chance to release his frustrations. That was tragic and fatal for the poor man.

‘Brutal, senseless and totally unnecessary’

Marquest Hall was charged with intentional manslaughter. He was going to get the maximum punishment. He also pleaded guilty, hoping that he will get less years in prison. News 12 Connecticut reported he will get 20 years behind bars for such charges.

Upon pleading guilty, the judge said there is a possibility for accepting it on base on his age and learning disabilities.

James McLamb also got what he deserved. He was charged with second-degree assault and he got five years behind bars.

In addition, McLamb apologized to the Muralles family.

Stamford Police Department adds that McLamb had also weapon charges with a $2 million bond. These two incidents are not related, though.

Please share to pay tribute to Anthony Muralles.

A simple visit to the local McDonald’s turned out deadly for the innocent man.

This House On Wheels Comes Fully Furnished and Sleeps 6 People

Different people love living in different types of houses. Some prefer large villas, some apartments and some houses. There are people who simply like living surrounded by the nature, avoiding the crowded residential areas. Driven by the same idea, some people choose to live on the open road. Interestingly, these last types of people can now enjoy the comfort by simply purchasing the Rustic River Park Home.

The Rustic River Park Home is not a house as we commonly understand the word. It’s a small RV, which is ready, any time, to be relocated. These are perfect for living deep in the woods, camp-sites or other non-residential and residential areas.

These types of houses give you a different living experience and an adventure that may give a new vibe to the family life.

These houses, however, are no like any other RVs. All materials are carefully selected, designed and installed. The manufacturer pays a special attention to the details and the quality of performance. These well-designed rustic houses satisfy everyone’s tastes.

The interior of the house is even more beautiful than the exterior. Wood is dominant building material and as it can be see from the images, they did a great job. The wooden walls and the furniture are marvellously crafted in order to give a warmth to the home. The stairs and the kitchen itself and all details in the living room give you a warmly comfort and enough space.

The bedroom is upstairs and since it’s in the loft space, it gives the owner enough privacy. There are also bunk beds which are useful in case visitirs drop by. The home gives you enough space and it can provide a comfort for up to six people!

Most of the models are 43 feet long and 11 feet wide and they are excellent for small families. This particular model, shown in the photos, is called ‘
Chattahoochee’, but, it’s not the only one. There are several models which the buyer can choose from, depending on the taste and needs. What’s even more important, they are not too expensive. The price of these homes is from $32,265 to $$42,940, fully furnished.

Believe us, space is not an issue with these homes. We do know people who decided to live down-town by renting or owning even smaller apartments than these houses. The real interesting thing about this home is the mobility. You can simply take your home with you!

Just imagine, living in your house while travelling around the world? Great chance right? You won’t miss your personal things nor your comfy bed. You can relax and have fun.

How suitable is this type of home for you? Would you live in one of them?

School recalls yearbook after realizing student’s quote has a deeper, very sexual meaning.

By

Before you leave your mark in the real world, you leave your legacy printed in the yearbook. No matter if you were the coolest person in high school, or a real nerd who only cared for getting straight A’s, it eventually all fades away, but the quote you choose to stand there proudly under your graduation photo is there, well, pretty much forever. Some students choose words of wisdom, others try to be witty, and those like this person named Jordan opted for something pretty inappropriate. And now we can’t help but wonder, how the hell did this quote passed and got published.

Before the school even noticed what slipped through their fingers, a redditor that goes by the name Bwawo posted it online. The school then yanked out the yearbooks from the students, but we guess it was way too late as it’s already everywhere.

They had to recall all yearbooks at my school

The redditors say how the yearbooks still on sale were recalled, and if it wasn’t for this guy who shared the quote with the whole world, Jordan would have probably gotten away with it.

There are a bunch of other students who really nailed it when choosing the photo and the quote to be remembered for. Check this guy’s from a few years back. Subtle, indeed.

Subtle yearbook quote

Thank you Carlisle High School for teaching me friendship, understanding, community, kindness, youth, optimism, and unity.

Teacher mocks boy’s faith in front of the class – student’s clever reply completely stumps her

By

Nicole

-

Religion is a private thing. It’s up to the people themselves to choose what to believe in and what not to believe in.

It’s also perfectly fine if one person does not believe in anything. Such people exist and it’s their own right to be atheists.

Nevertheless, there are believers and non-believers who try to push their point of view and convince the others in order ‘to choose the right path’. This is very rude and unacceptable in the modern world.

Regarding this issue, there is a fantastic factious story that involves a teacher and her students. The teacher’s intention is to tell her students what to believe in, and Adam’s reaction shuts her up.

The teacher is non-believer and she tries to place her views in front of the students.

“Go out in the schoolyard”

To demonstrate that God did not exist, Ms. Smith asked Adam:

“Adam, can you see that tree outside the window?”

“Yes,” the boy replied.

“Adam, can you see the lawn around the tree?”

“Yes,” the boy replied once again.

“Now go out in the schoolyard and look up at the sky,” Ms. Smith told him.

Adam nodded, and walked out in the schoolyard. He looked up at the blue sky for a few moments, then walked back into the classroom.

“Did you see God out there?”

“I saw the sky,” Adam said, happy to have been out in the yard for a few seconds.

“But did you see God up there?” the teacher said in a mocking tone.

“Nope, I didn’t,” Adam answered truthfully.

“Exactly. We can’t see God, because he’s not there. He simply doesn’t exist,” the teacher said with a jeering smile.

“Can you see miss Smith?”

Suddenly, Adam’s classmate Felicia eagerly raised her hand, and the teacher nodded for her to speak.

“Adam, can you see that tree outside the window?” little Felicia asked.

“Yes,” he replied.

“And can you see the lawn around the tree?”

“Yes,” Adam said.

“And did you see the sky out there?”

“Yes!” Adam said, a bit frustrated at all the questions.

“And can you see miss Smith?”

“So according to what we’ve been taught…”

“Yes,” Adam replied, now getting a bit curious.

“And can you see her brain?” little Felicia asked.

“Uhm, no,” Adam replied.

Felicia smiled at miss Smith.

“Okay, so according to what we’ve been taught today, miss Smith doesn’t have a brain!”

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud – that’s what I call a comeback! Press the SHARE button to treat your friends to their daily laugh!

Christa’s bravery paid off. Thanks to her on-time reaction, a terrible outcome is avoided.

Share and spread the news. Let’s contribute in our kids’ safety and well-being.

One event, however, changed Hyde’s days and brought a little happiness in his life.

He just knelled at the kitchen’s counter and shed tears of joy. This veteran’s faith in humanity was restored.

‘Brutal, senseless and totally unnecessary’
