The video below shows rescue cows and goats checking on their caregiver, Gretchen Eberle, after she was feeling a little overwhelmed. The clip that has gone viral, was shared by the TikTok account of Off The Plate Sanctuary (@offtheplatesanctuary), a nonprofit animal rescue based in Montgomery, Vermont. It was started by Eberle and her spouse Charles Snedicor. Eberle told Newsweek: “I was cleaning the barn and feeling a little overwhelmed that day. The things we see in rescue life can take its toll on us at times. As I sat to take a quick break and reflect, a couple of the cows and goats nearby sensed my emotions and came over to check on me. They do this quite often. They are beautiful, feeling, sentient beings who feel many of the emotions we do. I am desperate for people to understand that.”

Baby born with spina bifida survives in-womb surgery & goes on to walk & run

Posted on January 4, 2024 by DCG | 2 comments

This is very good news for the advancement and treatment of birth defects in the womb. Many women whose babies are diagnosed with spina bifida before birth will go on to have an abortion.

Piper-Kohl Kelly is living proof that modern technology can save children.

From The Irish Sun:

“A girl whose parents were told she may never walk is now running around — after surgery in the womb. Mum Georgia Axford and dad Tyler Kelly discovered at the 20-week scan their unborn baby had spina bifida, which can paralyse the legs.

They got a £9,000 loan and travelled to Germany for an op where a collagen patch helps repair the spine.

Piper-Kohl Kelly, named after surgeon Dr Thomas Kohl, was then born early (in 2018) but healthy, and a fundraiser helped pay back the loan.

Now aged five, she can walk and run and has taken part in school sports day.

Georgia, 24, from Yate, South Gloucs, said: “Seeing her run on the tracks was amazing. I never thought she’d be able to do something like that. Sometimes it doesn’t feel real. I think back to what we were told, and they were really negative about Piper’s diagnosis. We were prepared to give Piper whatever support she needed. I can’t believe it – we’re so lucky to see Piper achieve what she does.”

Such a happy ending!

NASA captures amazing “Christmas Tree Cluster” of stars

Posted on December 21, 2023 by DCG | 3 comments

From NASA:

“This new image of NGC 2264, also known as the “Christmas Tree Cluster,” shows the shape of a cosmic tree with the glow of stellar lights. NGC 2264 is, in fact, a cluster of young stars — with ages between about one and five million years old — in our Milky Way about 2,500 light-years away from Earth. The stars in NGC 2264 are both smaller and larger than the Sun, ranging from some with less than a tenth the mass of the Sun to others containing about seven solar masses.

This new composite image enhances the resemblance to a Christmas tree through choices of color and rotation. The blue and white lights (which blink in the animated version of this image) are young stars that give off X-rays detected by NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. Optical data from the National Science Foundation’s WIYN 0.9-meter telescope on Kitt Peak shows gas in the nebula in green, corresponding to the “pine needles” of the tree, and infrared data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey shows foreground and background stars in white. This image has been rotated clockwise by about 160 degrees from the astronomer’s standard of North pointing upward, so that it appears like the top of the tree is toward the top of the image.”
