Cystic fibrosis influences many individuals in Scotland, and around the world. The disease is a progressive, genetic disease where long-lasting lung infections hinder the ability to breathe over time. This happens when mucus clogs the airways and traps in germs, which can help lead to inflammation, infections, and respiratory failure. There is no cure for cystic fibrosis, however, treatments are available which can help reduce the symptoms, and improve the quality of life – leading to a happier, and longer life. However, at times with treatments such as these, there can be delays or waitlists such as the one that…

The majority of America may be aware of what’s going on at the border in Texas, but most definitely Texans do. The borders in Texas have seen thousands of illegal immigrants coming over, and not just from Mexico. Now, as everyone else – we have no issue with immigrants coming to America, the correct way. This has been an ongoing issue ever since Brandon took over office, and many have tried making both him and the laughing hyena aware of what’s going on. We see many things that aren’t good coming through such as drugs, contraband, and parentless children, among…

A Police Trooper from the state of Massachusetts came to the aid of a more than upset man on the Tobin Bridge Saturday evening after effectively persuading him not to throw his life away. A report published by the CDC says from the years 2000 through to 2020 shows that the suicide rates were an easy three to four times more for males when compared to females across this period, with both sexes having what seem to be lower rates in 2020 when compared to 2018 and 2019. For males, suicide rates in the higher age groups have declined, and…

H-E-B stands for ‘Here Everything’s Better’, Texas certainly thinks so – but after this young H-E-B employee paid for a family’s grocery bill once the customer realized she didn’t have enough cash to pay for everything – anyone who…
This is a heart-melting reaction of care home residents as they were invaded by a fluffy storm of British bulldogs and Pomeranian pups.

We’ve heard many folk tales or stories about cats over time. We’ve had family fun movies such as DreamWorks Puss in Boots, we’ve had books or stories such as Cat in the Hat, cartoons we used to enjoy on Saturday mornings like Thundercats, and even plays centered around the felines – Cats. There are many more things involving cats that we’ve heard, told, seen, or experienced, and some of them might be true. For example, some of us might have read the children’s story The Cat Who Loved The Moon by Jennifer Reynolds, or seen Nyan cat flying through space…
I remember when Pokémon first came out in the 90s and was the hottest thing around. Back then, parents were telling their kids who were fanatics to put the game down and go play outside, and when the game Pokémon GO first came out and people weren’t paying attention to their surroundings and had accidents while crossing the roads, the parents were now saying put the game down and come back inside! All jokes aside, a new study finds that catchin’ em all might actually be beneficial. This time, not just for bragging rights, or for the collection, but for…
In the bible, we get to learn that God will not place anything on you more than you can handle and that he sends all good things. Not some, not a little, but all. This includes children, and whether there may be ‘something wrong with them or not, or things look bleak with the parent(s) or the baby, one thing stands, and will always stand. And that’s God’s word. Recently, it would seem as though God’s blessing shined through once again. This time in the UK – where two of the most preemie twins ever have at long last been…

A group of Good Samaritans acted quickly to help a lady who experienced a medical episode at a bustling Boynton Beach intersection last week, said police. A few drivers have persistent medical conditions that can influence their driving.

Following twenty long years of pondering and searching, a young Utah man has reunited with his long-lost birth mother after she sent him a Facebook message unexpectedly last November. Benjamin Hulleberg, a substitute teacher, knew early on that he had been adopted by his now-parents, Brian and Angela Hulleberg, and often found himself curious about his birth mom, somebody who he only had the first name to go off of, Holly. “It was always a very positive conversation,” the 20-year-old said. “It was my parents either expressing gratitude for Holly or me talking about how I’m grateful for her and…

Sometimes we paint people who play video games in such a way that may not be fair. We might think that they are lonely, weird, or even nerdy.

Playing video games, be it on console or PC master race, can actually assist some people with making new, life-long friends.

Kangaroos are one of the most popular animals that come from Australia. Children adore them for their cute-fluffy fur and for carrying even cuter baby joeys inside their pouch. However, another less known fact about kangaroos is that they are surprisingly good swimmers! Along with balancing when standing high up on its hind legs, its strong tail also helps them swim.
