This baby was paralyzed shortly after birth, but when the family dog suddenly touched him one fateful day, a miracle happened. The stunning chain of events in this incident will leave you incredibly stunned.

Claudia Dawn was busy in the kitchen when a loud sound suddenly stopped her in place. Shawn, her six-month-old son, was crying once again. The 30-year-old mother sighed in exasperation; she had only put him to sleep mere minutes ago, so she wondered what the fuss was about. Perhaps her little bundle of joy needed a diaper change or a cooler environment. It was always one of the two reasons each time, so the young mother only put a little thought into it…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Quickly, Claudia made a beeline for the nursery, eager to find the source of her son’s discomfort. However, when she got to the room, she saw something that made her heart skip a beat in surprise. Her son, who initially was lying on his back on the soft mat, was now turned to his side, his face beet-red from all the crying. And beside him was Jet, the family’s dog. Judging from Jet’s incriminating position beside Shawn, Claudia suspected that it had nudged him to that point. Furious, the young mother quickly picked up her son and tried to soothe him. While doing this, she made a mental note to report Jet to a vet or animal psychologist. For some reason, the Beagle had been bothering her little boy lately, which scared her beyond reasoning.

As she rocked Shawn back to sleep, she noticed something bizarre. Again, the infant’s balled fist gripped her shirt slightly. Claudia gasped at the sight because it was something that had never happened before, as her son was born paralyzed. Unbeknownst to this stunned mother, this little development was only the beginning, as more bizarre, life-changing occurrences were about to unfold.

Claudia had never had it easy in life. Shortly after marriage, her husband Dylan passed away due to an unfortunate motor accident. She was still mourning his passing when she received the news that she was pregnant. Having gone through a very bleak period of her life, the thought of motherhood scared her, causing her to experience frequent mental breakdowns. Whenever these episodes occurred, her relatives would have her admitted to the hospital, where the doctors would monitor her until her recovery.

After her second trimester, Claudia began to see a ray of hope in her situation. Her ultrasound revealed she was expecting a baby boy. This new piece of information cast away the dark webs of doubt and depression that Dylan’s death had inadvertently caused in her mind. With newfound conviction, Claudia began to work on herself for her unborn child’s sake. She worked tirelessly as a freelance writer to raise money and also managed her retail store. Likewise, family and friends chipped in occasionally to support the soon-to-be single mother.

Despite the attendant challenges of being a pregnant single woman, Claudia strove to succeed at all costs. For one, she prepared for her baby’s arrival single-handedly, buying all the necessary baby care products and organizing the nursery. Then, she diligently went for her prenatal appointments once every week, taking extra measures to maintain a healthy lifestyle while at it. Hope crested in Claudia’s chest whenever she thought about the future she was creating for herself and her unborn son. Suddenly, motherhood was the only thing she looked forward to each passing day.

However, this soon-to-be mother’s unrelenting spirit was dashed in a heartbeat when she received shocking news after one sudden visit to the doctor’s office in her seventh month. Her doctor informed her that her pregnancy was going to be a tough one. Apparently, her mental and physical state in the early months of her pregnancy had caused a strain on the baby. Although the outcome was uncertain, the doctor warned her that there would be a high risk of complications during childbirth.

Claudia’s anxiety reached dizzying heights as she processed this daunting information, yet she refused to give in to fear. Instead, she dedicated herself to maintaining a healthy routine until her due date. She pressed on while praying for a miracle, hoping that her son would make it out in one piece. Little did Claudia know that the fate of her little one was irreparably sealed following this diagnosis.

A week before her due date, Claudia finally went into labor. The experience was grueling, perhaps the most excruciating moment the young woman had ever gone through in her life. After close to two hours of pushing, Claudia became weak, prompting doctors to resort to a cesarean section immediately. A few minutes later, Claudia’s son was born, consequently ending the tormenting ordeal.

However, shortly after the baby’s welcome into the world, the attending doctor noticed something heart-wrenching—the baby wasn’t breathing. The medical professional was certain it wasn’t stillbirth, as the baby was crying and kicking when he first breathed in new air. So, what could have been the problem? Without much thought, the doctor administered immediate resuscitation to the infant. Claudia watched on, crying and praying for the best. Fortunately for the exhausted mother, the doctors were able to revive her son within minutes. She sighed heavily, relieved and happy that the ordeal was over. The new mother embraced her son, grateful for the chance life had awarded her to continue her late husband’s legacy.

However, a few hours later, Claudia realized that she had relaxed too soon, as her precious son wasn’t out of the woods yet. The young mother noticed something amiss about her infant son. He lay stiffly, his arms and legs barely squirming and stretching in a manner most infants did. Instantly, this observation troubled Claudia. Her little boy never tried to grasp her fingers when she tried holding his tiny hand. His hands remained limp by his sides and wouldn’t move out of that position unless she raised them. Only his eyes and mouth showed any signs of life.

With her maternal instinct on overdrive, Claudia sought the doctor’s attention, hoping for a medical explanation and solution to the perceived problem. She sincerely hoped her concerns were mere fabrications of her troubled mind, that the doctors would tell her it was a normal occurrence for a day-old infant, or ultimately dismiss her worries as new mom jitters. But to her dismay, these responses never came—only news that shook her to her core. The doctor informed Claudia that her son had severe paralysis. According to the doctor, her baby had minimal sensation below his neck, indicating the possibility of quadriplegia. While the exact cause of this development was unknown, he advised that further observation and examinations were necessary.

The doctor’s words were like a punch to her gut—a devastating blow that she never saw coming. While the initial news broke her, the following words she heard tore her to shreds. The doctor stated that hope for recovery was nowhere in sight, at least not at that point. Diagnosing paralysis in infants was challenging, and in Shawn’s case, the limited resources at the hospital posed a significant problem. Instantly, the young mother descended into a state of delirium. What she heard might as well have passed as a life sentence for her and her son. In a nutshell, the doctor had just told her that her little boy could potentially remain paralyzed for life.

Her heart, heavy with grief, questioned all her efforts until that point, and her mind raced with so many questions. How could this be? How could her son, whom she had waited desperately for all these months, be condemned to a life of immobility? She had planned to raise her baby in honor of Dylan, her late husband. In addition, she had even prepared Dylan’s middle name, Shawn, for him. So how could this happen?

Claudia’s world was soon shattered and left in ruins. It felt as if she had received a stark reality check once more that life couldn’t be easy for her. First of all, she lost her husband, and now her son—the only reminder she had of Dylan—was paralyzed. The distraught mother struggled to adjust to this situation in the following weeks. It hurt her to see her son so stiff and unresponsive, but as time passed, she gradually came to terms with what she deemed was her new normal.

Her acceptance, however, didn’t necessarily equate to her grappling with the situation easily. Due to Shawn’s peculiar condition, Claudia always found it hard to tell what was wrong with him. Unlike other infants who communicated with certain body cues, all Shawn could do was cry. Hence, it was difficult for her to pinpoint pain or distress signals and discomfort in various parts of his body. Regardless, Claudia pulled herself together and strove to be an excellent mother to her son.

But as the days went by, something about her began to change. Friends and family noticed the young mother slowly slipping into her usual depressed state. She ate little, was absentminded, and appeared unkempt most of the time. Alarmed by this new development, concerned relatives set the quickest appointment with the doctor, seeking a solution. However, their fear spiked after the first visit when the doctor confirmed that Claudia suffered from postpartum depression, which was typically normal for most mothers, especially new ones.

To cope with the overwhelming effects of depression, Claudia was prescribed medication. Also, she received support from friends and family who took the liberty of caring for Shawn. Over time, this pattern continued, with loved ones taking turns to visit and cater to the mother and her child’s needs. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

But soon after, something different happened. Instead of a familiar face staying over, Claudia met a shocking surprise. A friend who served in the military introduced her to a new visitor—a one-year-old Beagle named Jet. The little canine was a trained therapy dog and was the perfect solution for the depressed mother. At first, Claudia was reluctant to accept Jet, seemingly because she had no clue how she could take care of it, with Shawn in her state. But after a few persuasions from her friend, she welcomed the idea, hoping

it would shine a ray of hope on her life.

Unbeknownst to Claudia, this little canine’s arrival was about to mark a significant shift in her life, one that would render her shocked and confused. In a few weeks, Jet’s presence was healing her soul, and she soon found herself returning to her former happy self. As the days passed, the little canine became an integral part of her life and Shawn’s. Jet would snuggle up to her son and, sensing his needs, would move to comfort the baby. It would do this by calling Claudia’s attention to her son’s silent whims, either taking a blanket over to her if it felt Shawn needed warmth, or simply tugging at the woman’s clothing to beckon her to the infant’s side. Similarly, Jet provided the same assistance system to Claudia, helping out with tasks like fetching items or consoling her in her vulnerable or sad moments.

With Jet by her side, Claudia began to find joy in the little things once again, and her path to a complete recovery began to take shape. When Shawn finally turned five months old, she realized the tremendous impact their little friend had caused on her. Claudia had healed up and was no longer a shadow of herself like she was a few months prior. The young mother felt so overwhelmed with happiness and relief that she celebrated the minor achievement while subsequently inaugurating Jet into the family. For the first time since Shawn’s birth, she felt alive again and had Jet to thank for that.

Life was finally looking up for Claudia. The young mother felt an inexplicable wave of confidence and determination hit her like a jolt of electricity. Suddenly, Shawn’s paralysis was of little to no concern to her. Claudia reasoned that her love for her son would be unconditional, regardless of the apparent twists and turns. She was content with her little boy and their furry friend, and nothing could make her feel otherwise.

But that was until a week later when she noticed an uncharacteristic change in Jet’s behavior. All of a sudden, the Beagle began to act rather strangely towards Shawn. Oftentimes, it would sniff around the infant as if searching for something. Then, in other cases, it would tap Shawn on the head or stomach with its little paw, eliciting a cry from the baby if he found the gesture far from subtle or endearing. Out of concern, Claudia would occasionally put Jet in a timeout. The puzzled mother attributed the dog’s unusual habits to its playful behavior, believing a few minutes of isolation would call it to order. However, nothing ever changed.

Jet’s uncanny attitude continued for days until this moment, when Claudia caught him obstructing Shawn’s sleep. But instead of fuming like usual, Claudia had been distracted by her son’s sudden motor reaction. Instantly, she placed Shawn on her lap, trying to get him to clutch her fingers or even lift a finger. To her dismay, nothing happened. The lack of response made her rethink the brief incident. Could it have been her imagination? Had Shawn not grasped her shirt a few seconds ago? Claudia struggled to piece the entire event together. Perhaps she had indeed imagined it. After all, what mother wouldn’t jump at the chance to see a turnaround in her paralyzed son’s case?

With her hope dashed, Claudia shifted her focus to another pressing matter at hand: Jet’s recent behavior. She promptly called the friend who had gifted Jet to her, explaining her bizarre observation. Surprisingly, her friend shared her concern, deeming the dog’s antics inexcusable.

Taking this as a cue to take action, the young mother decided to schedule a visit to the vet first thing in the morning. With that in mind, Claudia continued her day, believing she had handled the situation thoroughly. But before the day ended, something completely unexpected happened.

That evening, Claudia laid Shawn to sleep again while she continued her duties around the house. This time around, she placed her son on his belly on her bed, which was one place Jet would never dare to venture to. With Jet in a timeout, the young mother thought leaving her son unattended for a few minutes was safe. However, barely 10 minutes after she left Shawn, she realized she had made a grave mistake with her assumption. As usual, Jet tapped Shawn’s back, reducing the six-month-old to a crying mess. Quickly, Claudia tried to calm her baby down. To her horror, something about this particular crying session seemed different. Instead of calming down, Shawn’s wailing intensified, and given how the poor mother couldn’t understand his body language, she was at a loss for what to do. She tried singing lullabies, changing the room temperature, and even feeding him, yet all her efforts were in vain as Shawn couldn’t be soothed.

With all her options exhausted, Claudia raced to the hospital seeking help from medical professionals. Even the hospital staff found the task of calming the agitated infant draining. Eventually, they succeeded in putting him to sleep. Despite this short victory, Claudia knew this issue was far from over. At that moment, she threw caution out the window and went full-on hysterical, explaining all that had happened in the last few weeks. After telling her story, Claudia heaved in frustration. Soon, she felt the growing sense of relief envelop her—a merciful release that often accompanied sharing one’s worries and concerns. With some of her problems aired to the medical doctor, Claudia felt a heavy burden lift off her shoulders.

Little did she know that the information she had inadvertently blurted out in her frustration would lead her to a shocking discovery. While her son’s doctor was no expert in animal psychology, he could deduce some striking details in Claudia’s story, which would make her body shake with a mix of emotions. Moments later, the doctor asked Claudia to pinpoint where Jet had been touching Shawn. Despite her confusion, she did as requested, stating that it was her son’s head and mid-back. Then, without warning, the doctor called the nurses to arrange an X-ray as soon as possible. His voice carried a note of urgency and an undertone of dread, as if suspecting something terribly amiss.

This reaction worried Claudia immensely, as she wondered what horrible predicament Jet had unwittingly put her son through. When the young mother couldn’t take the suspense any longer, she voiced her concerns, asking what the fuss was about. Unfortunately, all she got in return was a vague answer as the doctor assured her they only needed to run some tests to be sure of the situation before discharging Shawn altogether.

Claudia waited with bated breath for the results. Although the quick and unexpected turn of events left her dumbfounded, she reasoned she would let the experts handle the situation. When the results were finally ready, Claudia received surprising news. The doctor had found a tumor in a nerve close to Shawn’s spine. It had been lying benign and was so small that it was almost impossible to spot it, but thanks to Claudia’s vital information, the doctors could focus directly on the region to detect it. What’s more, this tumor was more or less the reason for Shawn’s paralysis, and had it been detected a bit later, it could have inevitably led to lifelong consequences. However, with this development, Shawn would be able to flex his limbs after undergoing surgery.

Claudia found it challenging to process the news for a split second. When she finally came to, her knees, weak with emotions, buckled under her, and her eyes welled up with tears of relief. She couldn’t believe the news she had just received—soon her son would walk, run, and use his hands! The revelation left her reeling and also led her to another realization she had overlooked: all this progress was only possible due to Jet’s persistence. After months of enduring and wishing for a miracle, Claudia realized the heavens had answered her prayers since the day Jet walked into their lives.

Although her son’s changing condition excited her, Claudia struggled to understand one thing: how could Jet pull off a miracle of this scale? How did this tiny creature sniff out a problem that eluded medical practitioners? With her curiosity piqued, she sought answers from the experts who knew better, only to receive another startling revelation. The doctor explained that records have shown that certain dogs could sniff out tumors and internal bleeding in humans. From Claudia’s statement, he had suspected Jet had done the same with Shawn, and the results inevitably confirmed his suspicions.

Following this explanation, Claudia realized she owed a debt of gratitude to her little canine angel. Not only had it helped in curing her depression, but it also paved the way for what she and other medical professionals thought was impossible—a chance for Shawn to live with fully functional limbs. As soon as the discovery came to light, the doctor arranged immediate surgery for little Shawn. The procedure took a toll on everyone financially and medically, but it eventually worked. Shortly after the surgery, little Shawn regained his motor reflexes, stretching and tossing like other babies.

Shawn’s story served as a valuable lesson to Claudia. As a woman who had struggled through multiple downturns in life, she knew firsthand that miracles truly existed. Thanks to one dog, she could find her smile and peace of mind again. Each passing day, her son’s mobility reminded her of this remarkable turnaround, filling her with immense gratitude for life.

6-Year-Old Boy Left In Coma After Being Sent Home From School With Headache

Published

Ellis Artist of Clayton, West Yorkshire was living a normal, 6-year-old life when everything went downhill.

One night, Ellis woke up in pain and screaming to his parents, 37-year-old Paul Artist and 34-year-old Sarah Girdwood.

His head and neck were in tremendous pain and he began to vomit profusely.

This all happened after a minor illness, which he seems to recover quickly from earlier that day.

Ellis’ parents rushed him to a nearby hospital, and a rash started to develop.

First, doctors thought it was meningitis, but antibiotics didn’t help and Ellis was mumbling and moaning in his sleep, unable to wake up…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Doctors then performed an MRI scan.

The resulting diagnosis was shocking and horrifying: acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, or ADEM.

This extremely rare condition causes brain swelling, and Ellis now has repeated seizures as a result.

ADEM is a little-understood disease that can begin from even a small infection.

It causes negative reactions to the white matter of the brain, which then affects the body’s immune system.

The result is a severe allergic reaction that involves attacking the immune system and the eroding of nerves’ protective layers.

This condition tends to affect different people in different ways, meaning it is usually impossible for doctors to provide an accurate prognosis – as is the case with Ellis.

75% of those who develop AEDM are able to recover fully, but the remainder may develop significant impairments and disabilities as a result. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

It is unsure whether Ellis will recover, how severe his condition is, or if he will have any long-term effects from it.

After the AEDM diagnosis, Ellis was placed in a medically-induced coma and rushed to the Leeds General Infirmary.

A week later, another scan revealed that the swelling was no longer just in Ellis’ brain – it was beginning to make its way down his spine.

He was also having mini-seizures due to the brain swelling. But it’s not all bad news – after a while of being on a ventilator, Ellis is able to breathe on his own again.

The Sick Children’s Trust has put up Ellis’ family, including his three brothers, the youngest of which still doesn’t know what is really happening to Ellis.

Ellis, meanwhile, is still in a coma with his parents by his bedside as he receives the 24/7 care that he needs.

It is still unknown whether Ellis will recover fully or not, but doctors are doing everything they can to provide information to his worried family.

It’s expected that Ellis will be at the hospital for at least a couple of months, and will then need constant care at home once he is able to leave.

In order to ease the financial strain, family and friends, as well as Ellis’ school Clayton St John CE Primary School, have been working hard to raise funds for the family.

Ellis is a strong, tough boy and everyone is rooting for him and hoping for his recovery.

A fundraiser for the family with a £5,000 target goal has been set up, and around 92% of funds have been raised at the time of writing.

If you’d like to donate to the cause, you can do so at their JustGiving page.

Did An Angel Save Girl From Dying In Hospital?

Published

Losing a child can be a devastating event, no matter what age.It is, however, universally agreed upon that it is worse when the child is lost at such a young age.

Sadly, this sort of early death is expected for some families, due to the circumstances that their child is involved in.

Despite the advancement of modern medicine, there are still plenty of children who suffer from severe health problems from either a young age or even from birth. These children are often predicted to not survive very long.

In a way, their passing can be considered them finally having rest and relief from their life, which has been an uphill battle all the way…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Most of these children and their families, however, find themselves with plenty to live for.

They fight, they strive, and they try to use everything at their disposal to push forward and see another day.

Alas, this is a war, and sometimes, the inevitable happens.

In the case of North Carolinian Chelsea Banton, she wasn’t expected to see her third day.

A premature baby born five weeks early, Chelsea had a major problem – she had to deal with excessive fluids creating pressure against her brain.

The doctors gave her at most 36 hours to live.

However, the baby girl would defy all odds, and would live to grow up.

Her life, however, did not get any easier after that first major hurdle.

The girl would spend the following 14 years of her short life fighting against one health problem after another.

Infections, life-threatening viruses, fluid retention, shunt revisions, hydrocephalus – you named it, she suffered it at some point.

In the fall of 2008, Chelsea was struck by yet another round of advanced pneumonia, which had developed from a bad cold she caught. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

This latest bout of illness seemed to be the last one she could handle – the girl was forced to stay in the hospital for seven weeks, completely dependant on life support.

It was at this point that Colleen Banton, her mother, was forced to make a heartbreaking decision.

In the interest of not prolonging her daughter’s suffering, she opted to keep the ventilator off the next time her daughter was strong enough to breathe on her own.

It was essentially plugging the plug for the girl – by this point, Colleen had decided that should her daughter’s time had come, then there was no use in delaying the inevitable.

While praying with friends and family who had come out to support this mother, Colleen was suddenly called over to a nearby monitor by the pediatrician nurse.

There, her attention was directed to the bright light that had appeared in front of the door to the pediatrician unit.

Astonished, Colleen took a quick photo of it with her camera, then went to check this strange light in person.

Oddly enough, it wasn’t there physically.

A miracle occurred shortly thereafter – three days later, Chelsea was well enough to return home once again.

Colleen is convinced that the figure was an angel who helped her daughter.

Chelsea would then go on to live for another 7 more years before passing away in 2015, at the age of 21.

Her story is one for the ages!
