Many elderly people want to remain as independent and self-sufficient as they possibly can, even when they know that they might need a little extra help. They hate to admit that they can’t do what they used to be able to, which is understandable because no one really does, no matter what age they may be.
Rose and David Griest were adamant about not giving up any of their independence and they didn’t want to rely on others. Rose, who was 89 and David, who was 100 years old, shrugged off offers from their family and friends to help whenever they might need it. One day Rose had to go to the doctor and she and David decided they could get themselves to her appointment. After visiting the doctor’s office they headed home and on the way back they noticed that they needed to get gas. Not only that, they both had to use the restroom, so they pulled over at a nearby gas station and parked at the pump.
Rose and David headed for the restrooms and on the way back they ran into trouble. Both of them were exhausted from the whole trip and were struggling to make it back to their vehicle. Rose was using a walker and was visibly shaking, it seemed like she was about to fall over. A police officer on duty, Kanesha Carnegie, was across the street nearby when she noticed the pair clearly having problems walking across the gas station parking lot. She decided to head over and help them out, but on the way, she noticed that three young men were following right behind the elderly couple.
The men were running towards Rose and David and so officer Carnegie whipped out her cell phone and started recording. She knew nothing bad was happening, instead she believed that she was watching something amazing unfold. The three men surrounded the elderly couple, making sure that if either one fell, they could catch them right away. They very slowly and gently assisted them back into their car, being completely careful and respectful.
The men happened to be a trio of rappers from Orlando who were at the gas station that day picking up some snacks. Joc Koe Stoe, Marty, and Freddy G were inside when they glanced outside and noticed the elderly couple struggling and immediately rushed over to help them. In a Fox 5 interview, Marty later told the reporter that “I kept thinking, ‘She could have been by grandmother.’”
Without hesitating the young men had dropped what they were doing that day to help the elderly couple in need. Officer Carnegie shared the heartwarming footage of their selfless act online and it quickly went viral with people happy to see what a difference a simple act of kindness can make.

THIS Girl Who Only Ten-Years-Old Did Not Survive This Huge Waterslide. THIS Is How The Unthinkable Happened To Her!
image via – youtube.com
When you’re a kid, one of the most fun things you can do in the summer is visit an amusement park. The rides are super exciting, the attractions are engaging and unique, and the food and snack options are usually tasty and delicious. Amusement parks are meant to be wildly entertaining and fun for the whole family and safety is always one of the top priorities at such places. While parks are regulated closely and many feature safety checks beyond what is required, there are some things that people simply cannot prepare for.
When Tina and Gerry Eisenbeis took their 10-year-old daughter London to Zehnder’s Splash Village in Frankenmuth, Michigan they never imagined that the day would end in tragedy. London had been waiting to ride one of the water slides at the park and since she had finally reached the height requirement of 48 inches, she was more than ready to go. The 273 foot slide was the parks tallest one and shortly before she went on it Landon spoke on video about how excited she was.
As London prepared to go down the slide she turned to her dad and smiled widely, gave him a thumbs up, and then set off down the tube. The ride only lasts about 7 seconds but by the time she came out the other end, she was already in cardiac arrest. The excitement from the water slide had thrown her heart into an abnormal rhythm where it was beating chaotically.
After being rushed to the hospital her family found out that she had suffered from Long QT syndrome. Long QT syndrome is an inherited heart rhythm disorder that can cause fast chaotic heartbeats, palpitations, fainting, drowning, or sudden death. The condition can trigger sudden fainting or seizures and if the heart beats erratically for too long, it can lead to sudden death. In most cases the condition is treated with medication but sometimes surgery is a better option where a device is implanted to help manage it. However, many people are completely unaware that they even have it, they don’t show any of the common signs or symptoms. Oftentimes it’s only discovered after genetic testing or learning it through family history and EKG results.
Doctors say that in Landon’s case, excitement caused her heart to beat erratically and abnormally. The anticipation and adrenaline from going down the water slide was simply too much for her heart to take. Despite being airlifted to the University of Michigan’s Children’s Hospital, London died nine days later after suffering severe brain damage from a lack of oxygen.
While her parents were shocked and heartbroken, they are trying to spread awareness of the condition and advocate for better safety measures and training for park employees. They started a non-profit in her name, the London Strong Foundation, where they offer CPR training courses. They also believe that defibrillators should be readily available and onsite, with workers trained to use them. For now they are simply focused on getting the word out and preventing what happened to their daughter from happening to other children and unsuspecting families.

THIS Baby Tugs On This Cat’s Foot and Leg But The Cat’s Reaction Has Gone Viral!
image via – youtube.com
Cats and babies seem like they naturally go well together. They’re both cute, adorable little creatures who love nothing more than to sleep, cuddle, and snuggle. While most cats and babies do in fact go very well together, there’s always the chance that they won’t get along. Sometimes it takes time for them to warm up to each other but once boundaries are established, they usually end up best friends.
When one couple decided to adopt a cat named Lemsie, they were naturally hesitant to introduce her to their baby boy. They weren’t sure how the pair would get along, but they knew they had to let them meet. They really wanted them to bond and grow up together so when the cat was sitting down relaxed and calm, they placed their toddler next to her.
The baby was immediately taken by his new feline friend and looked thrilled to finally be close to her. He reached out and gently held Lemsie’s back legs before resting his head down on them. His bright little smile lit up the room and showed just how much he was loving his furry new friend. Now came the moment of truth; how would Lemsie react to the baby touching her?
Lemsie moved towards the child’s head and started to gently lick him! She was grooming him like he was a kitten and being sweet and gentle. The roughest thing about their whole interaction was probably her tongue. While most cats don’t like their legs being grabbed, she didn’t seem to mind at all.
Not once did she show any aggression or ill will towards the baby and when her owners saw how accepting and tolerant of the toddler she was, they knew they wouldn’t have to worry about the two being around each other.
Their faces say it all, they love each other and are happy to finally be able to cuddle. It looks like the beginning of a wonderful friendship and the first of many memories to come.

This Girls Insides Sucked Out of Her Body When She Sat On The Suction In a Pool. THIS Is What Happened!
image via – youtube.com
Salma Bashir was just five years old when she went on vacation with her family to visit Alexandria, Egypt. She had been splashing around playing in the kiddie pool when she accidentally sat on the main suction valve. In an instant her whole life changed. Even though she screamed for help and the lifeguard on duty jumped right in to rescue her, it was too late.
When the lifeguard reached her, he couldn’t get her out. Salma’s father rushed over and tried to get her out of the pool as well, but the force from the suction valve was too strong. Finally, a couple of people were able to get her out of the pool, but the damage had already been done. When they carried her out of the water the full horror of her situation set in; her small intestines had been ripped out of her body by the pool suction.
The pain and trauma from what she had just been through caused Salma to pass out. After doctors assessed her injuries, they gave her just weeks to live. There was still hope though, Salma could get on the wait list for a transplant and with nothing to lose her parents decided they had to try. The family moved to Pennsylvania for her treatment and after raising $300,000 and waiting a year and a half, she finally had the surgery.
While she had hoped and prayed that the surgery would be the start of a new, normal life, it turned out to be worse than anyone imagined. Salma’s body rejected the small intestines transplant after just 6 months. She had to have it removed and her large intestines and gall bladder were taken out as well.
In addition, her stomach had to remain open to the point she could see her insides. If she wants to try another transplant again, she’d need to have her small intestines, large intestines, stomach, liver, and pancreas all replaced at an estimated cost of $3 million. There is no guarantee of success and yet Salma wants to try.
Through all the pain, surgeries, and disappointment, Salma has remained steadfastly strong and determined. She hasn’t given up on healing and getting better, she still smiles and chews her mother’s food just to get a taste, even if she can’t swallow it and must spit it out.
Salma’s outgoing and naturally charming, she’s already raised over $75,000 on her GoFundMe page and has over 100K followers on her ‘Slay With Salma’ Facebook page where she does makeup tutorials. Even though she has faced setbacks and enormous obstacles, she hasn’t let them get her down and continues to fight. Hopefully she will prevail and get the surgery she needs and deserves.

She Wore The Same Mascara To Sleep For Twenty Five Years. What The Doctors Discovered Under Her Eyelids Let Them Stunned!
image via – youtube.com
If you wear makeup on your face, it’s always best to wash it off before going to sleep at night. If you wear mascara on your eyes, you should definitely remove it before you go to bed, as one woman found out the hard way.
Teresa Lynch always liked wearing makeup and since she was in her mid-20s she’d been applying mascara daily. She preferred waterproof mascara because it stayed on longer and wouldn’t smear down her face if she cried or it got wet. Teresa also had a dirty little secret; she never took off her mascara before she went to bed.
When Teresa was around 50 years old, she started having trouble with her eyes. It constantly felt like there was something in them and it got so bad that she had to make an appointment with her eye doctor. While examining her eyes he asked her is she wore mascara and she told him yes, every day. Then he asked her how often she took it off before going to sleep and she told him the honest truth, that in the past 25 years she had never removed her mascara before bed. After looking under her eyelids the doctor told her that what had been bothering her all this time was mascara build-up in her eyes, which over time had calcified into hard lumps!
The hard lumps of mascara had become embedded in the inner surface of her eyelid, some went even deeper, and the rough lumps were scraping her cornea every time she blinked. When he flipped her eyelid instead of being clear and pinkish, it was covered in black little dots of hardened mascara. In addition to that painful problem, she also had follicular conjunctivitis, a bacterial infection which is more commonly known as pink eye.
At this point, Teresa had done permanent damage and the surface of her eyes were scarred. In order to prevent further damage she would need surgery to remove the lumps under her eyelids. After a 90 minute invasive surgery and weeks of healing, her eyes finally felt better.
Even after all she had been through, Teresa still wanted to wear mascara. She cleared it with her doctor first and when she was able to wear it again, she made sure to fully remove it before going to bed. She decided to share her story as a precautionary tale to anyone else who doesn’t remove their makeup before bed. You definitely do not want to end up with permanent damage or needing invasive eye surgery. For more details be sure to check out the video for more information.

Man Leaves His Wife Who Is Pregnant and In Deep Debt Then She Finds The Most Unexpected Surprise In The Oven!
image via – youtube.com
After finding the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with, Amanda settled down with her husband and they planned on starting a big family together. The setbacks came quickly however, and after two miscarriages she gave up hope on ever having a child of her own. The couple, who lived in Sydney, Australia, turned their attention to the house they had just bought instead. They wanted to turn it into their dream house and the project took their minds off the tragic losses they’d suffered.
After three long years spent struggling to conceive, Amanda and her husband finally learned some good news, they were pregnant! At around the same time she learned she was expecting, the renovations on their house were also completed and things were finally looking up. The momentary bliss didn’t last long and Amanda was blindsided one day when her husband told her he was leaving her for another woman. She was seven months pregnant at the time, was out of work because her and her husband had decided she’d stay at home with the baby when it was born, and she had no way to pay the bills and mortgage on her newly redone house.
As if being cheated on and abandoned by her husband wasn’t devastating and stressful enough, now she had a baby on the way and no means to even buy things she’d need to care for her newborn. In an instant her seemingly perfect life had been shattered into a million little pieces. A friend of Amanda who knew what she was going through desperately wanted to help her out. She decided to reach out to the local radio station, KIIS 1065 to try and get her a spot on their “Giveback” segment.
When the producers heard about Amanda’s predicament, they decided to help her out and invited her onto the show to tell her story. Through tears she told it all, leaving nothing out, and when she was done, they directed her attention to a TV screen in the studio. They had sent a cameraman to her house and he was walking around filming.
The first thing he trained the camera on was a vacuum cleaner, it stood for 6 months of free cleaning. He then moved on to her refrigerator and when he opened the door there was a gift certificate for daily meals that would be delivered over the next three months so she wouldn’t have to worry about cooking. Next, he panned to her counter where $4,000 worth of items sat that she hadn’t yet bought for her baby, plus a $1,000 certificate to have her newborn’s pictures taken. Finally, the man opened her oven up and inside was $10,000 to help her pay the bills and mortgage until she found a job.
Amanda had been crying tears of sadness after telling her story, but now she was crying tears of happiness. She felt overwhelmed with gratitude and was incredibly thankful for her friend who had reached out, the radio station for putting everything together, and all the businesses who had donated to help her get back on her feet. Now she could focus on herself, her baby, and their future.
