The Miracle of Love

Wow!

I found this image at Non-Violent Planet News. Here's the story on these two. They're an odd couple in every sense but a monkey and a pigeon have become inseparable at an animal sanctuary in China.

The 12-week-old macaque - who was abandoned by his mother - was close to death when it was rescued on Neilingding Island, in Goangdong Province.

After being taken to an animal hospital his health began to improve but he seemed spiritless - until he developed a friendship with a white pigeon.

The blossoming relationship helped to revive the macaque who has developed a new lease of life, say staff at the sanctuary. Now the unlikely duo are never far from each other's side.

Was this guy lucky or what?

Man hits guard rail and flips end over end. Sounds like a rather routine accident doesn't it?

Here's a closer look. The truck crashed though a highway barrier, rolled over a culvert, and came to rest facing opposite its original direction of travel —

The roadway is Highway 59 near Hurricane City, Utah. Can you see that little box that shows where the accident occured? Yowsers!

Tiny miracle!

The picture is that of a 21-week-old unborn baby named Samuel Alexander Armas, who is being operated on by surgeon named Joseph Bruner. Practicing at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, he performs these special operations while the baby is still in the womb. During the procedure, the doctor removes the uterus via C-section and makes a small incision to operate on the baby.

As Dr. Bruner completed the surgery on Samuel, the little guy reached his tiny, but fully developed hand through the incision and firmly grasped the surgeon's finger.

Dr. Bruner was reported as saying that when his finger was grasped, it was the most emotional moment of his life, and that for an instant during the procedure he was just frozen, totally immobile.

Samuel was born in perfect health, the operation 100 % successful.
