WINDOW WASHER IN COMA
AFTER FALLING FROM 47 STORIES,
WOKE UP ON XMAS DAY.
A man name ALCINES MORENO,37,
fell from 47-storey
building in
Newyork skyscraper when a freak accident
sent
his window-washing platform plunging
to the concrete pavement.
The accident killed
his
brother,who was
working
on the same scaffolding platform,and left
Morena in such a bad
state that doctor
couldn't risk moving him to an
operating room.
Instead,
they operated on
him
in the emergency
room,leaving him in a
vegetative state
for nearly
3 weeks.
Finally,he showed
signs of consciousness and
spoke on xmas day.
Less than a month later
he was discharged
with the expectation that
he would walk
again
within a year's time.
Considering that
the death rate from even four-storey fall is about 50%,
Moreno's survival,thanks
in part to fortunate circumstance,is
ASTOUNDING!

2ND MOST FASCINATING MEDICAL MIRACLE.

A TEENAGE MODEL HAD HER BODY
HELD TOGETHER
BY 11 RODS
A girl,Katrina Burgess,17, was told
by doctors she may never walk
again after surving a 70mph
car crash with
a
broken neck&
back,and a catalogue of injuries.
But after being put back with 11
metal rods & enough pins &screws to send an airport
security detector
into overdrive,
Katrina
was signed up
by a modelling agency.
Surgeons saved her life after her
car left the M5 &
crashed into
a ditch as she travelled towards her hometown of WEYMOUTH,DORSET.
She snapped her back, punctured both lungs
&broke her
neck,her pelvis,her left leg,and several ribs.
Surgeons @ Musgrove park hospital in Taunton,
SOMERSET,said that with surgery to
help
the bone to fuse,her spinal injuries in particula could
deteriorate,risking
death.

Doctor inserted
a rod from her
hip to her knee in her left leg the day she was
admitted to the hospital.
It was secured
inside with 4 titanium pins.
The most risky
opèration came a week later.
They sliced open her back& inserted
6 more
horizontal rods up the length of her to support her spine. A week after that,they inserted
a titanium screw
to the top of spine
to support the
break
in her fragile neck.
Only a day after the
the last operation,
she was
able to take her first steps.
Astonishingly,
5 months on
from the crash,
the teenager has recovered to the
point
where she no longer even
needs painkillers.

3RD MOST FASCINATING MEDICAL MIRACLE.

A TEEN WHO LIVEÐ 118 DAYS
WITHOUT HEART.
It was
supposed to be a great day
for 14-year-old
D'zhana Simmon,
who received
a transplant
to replace her
enlarged heart.
However,
her dream turned into
a
nightmare when
THE NEW heart failed to function properly.
Doctors had to remove
the new organ,but without another
available
and D'zhana weakened from the surgery.
They had to
come up with a stopgap measure;
two artificial
pumps
that keep the
blood flowing in her
body for close to 4
months.
The feat was newsworthy partially because of D'zhana's age&
partially because
when an
artificial heart
is used to
sustain a patient,
the
patient's own
heart
is usually left
in the body.
Finally,on OCT,29,
D'zhana received
another heart
transplant,
and it was so successful that
she had a
kidney transplant the very
next day.
This girl is a
cat with
118 lives.

AFTER HAVING A TOOTH
IMPLANTED INTO HIS EYE.
A man
by name Martin Jones,42 year-old
builder,
was
left blind after an
accident @
work than a decadë ago.
But a
remarkable operation _which
implants part of his tooth
in his eye
has pierced his world of darkness.
The procedure, performed
fewer than 5 times before in Britain,use
the segment of tooth as a
holder
for a new lens grafted from his skin.

a tub of white hot alumininium exploded in face@
work in a scrapyard.
He suffered 37% burns & had to wear
a special body stocking for 23hrs
a day.
He also had his left eye removed.
But surgeons
were
able to
to save the right eye,even though he was unable to see
through it.
At 1st specialist in NOTTINGHAM tried to save his sight
using stem
cells from a donor,but the attempt failed.
It was only when
a
revolutionary new
operation was
pioneered @ the SUSSEX EYE CLINIC
IN BRIGHTON
that
he was given a chance to have his sight back.

During the procedure,a minute section of
a patient's tooth is removed,
reshaped& chiselled through grip,the man made lens, which
is the placed in it core.
It is implanted under an eyelid where
it becomes covered in tissue.
The process requires a living tooth
as implant because doctors
suggest there
are chances
the eye would reject a
plastic equivalent.
So,a canine which is the best option
due to its shape
&size
was taken out of Mr Jones mouth.
A patch of skin is then
taken from the
inside of
the eye for 2 months,where it graduälly acquires
its
own blood supply.
Then partially lifted from the eye
& placed over new
sturdy base.
Mr Jones from,
ROTHERHAR SOUTH YORKSHIRE,SOUTH,was able to see his
wife ,GILL,5O,who had married for years ago.

be
terminated or both would die.
Doctors @ Swedish medical centre
had diagnosed
Gimbel's twins with
Twin-to-Twin syndrome,or
TTTS.
It is a condition which the twins are connected by blood vessels.
One twin literally drains
the life out of the other.
Left untreated there is 80% .-90%
chance that
one or both will die.
Shannon & Mike were struggling with the suggestion to terminate the weaker baby,when their physician @ Swedish medical centre, Dr Kent Heyborne, approached them with another
option.
He'd made contact with Dr. Robert
Bell &Dr. Michael Belfort of St mark's hospital in salt lake
city,UTAH. The utah surgeons teamed with those @ swedish to perform laser surgery in the
womb to couterize the blood vessel that were connecting,and slowly killing the twins.


Shannon says she remembers holding her
breath as
nurse used an ultra-sound to listen for heartbeats after the surgery.
One,then another.
Both girls had made it.
Reese & Mckenna Gimbel were
born @ swedish 2 months later.

The severely brain
injured patient,
who is now 38 was unable

books a week

Dear reader is
African-American

Kill any element

You are a champion! ! !

MY ENCOUNTER WITH WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE.

Do You know that
William Shakespeare is still alive?
Though,
in history he was baptized on 26 april 1564.
He began his successful career in London as an actor.
They claimed he
produced most of his work between 1589 and
1613.
A respected English poet and playwright.
Millions worship him as genius.
BUT,
I RECENTLY HAD AN ENCOUNTER WITH HIM.
I INVITED HIM TO
MY HOUSE FOR A BRIEF
DISCUSSION.
INTRODUCED MYSELF AS 'INSPIRATIONAL'
HE CHANGED OUR DISCUSSION TO DISHING OUT OF INSPIRATIONAL ADVICE.
WHICH I KNOW YOU'LL BE GLAD TO
READ.
Are you ready?
Ok,
he told me my son:

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great,some
achieve greatness,and
some have greatness thrust upon them.

If you can look into the seeds of time,and say which
grain
will grow
and which will,
speak the unto me

Cowards die many times before
their
deaths;the valiant never taste of
but once.

It is not in the stars to
hold our destiny but in ourselves.


Give every man thy ear,
but few thy voice.
Love all,trust a few,do wrong to none.
Mind your speech a little,lest you should mar your
fortune.

No legacy is so rich as honesty.

The evil that men do
lives after them;the good is
oft interred with their bone.

Life is but a walking shadow,a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the
stage,
and the is heard no more; it is a tale told
by an idiot, full of sound and
fury,signifying
nothing.

The robbed that
smiles,steals something from the thief.

It is better to bear the ills we have than fly to other we know
not of.

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.

What is done can't
be
undone.
And lastly,he told me that
a man is piece is of work, noble
in reason and infinite.

NO PERSONALITY
CHARISMA
HAS BEEN SO
INFECTIOUS
LIKE
THAT OF OBAMA.

IN NIGERIA CAMPUSES THE
OBAMAMANIA RULES,
WHERE ALMOST
EVERY
CONTESTANT IN
S.U.G.
ELECTIONS UNDERSTANDS
THE MAGICAL-WAND NAME.

THE STORY IS SIMILAR
IN ALL THE RACES
IN THE WORLD.

EVERYBODY
DESIRES A HANDSHAKE WITH THIS ORATOR
PAR EXCELLENCE.

NIGERIA IS
STILL
MOURNING THE
BY-PASSING USHERED TO THEM BY THE MAN,
BY VISITING GHANA.

PERSONALLY,
I AM SUFFERING
FROM 'OBAMALARIA'

TRUTH BE ECHOED,
OBAMA IS AWESOME!

ATTENTION! ! !
Let
Obama dish out his stuff now!

If you are
walking down the
the
right path &
you are willing to
keep
walking,eventually
you'll
make progress.

It took alot of
blood, sweet & tear
to get where we
are
today,but we have
just begun.
Today we
begin in earnest
the
work of making sure
that the world we leave our
children is just a little
bit better
than the one
we inhabit.

If we aren't willing to pay
a
price for our values,then we should ask whether we truly
believe
in them @ all.
Everyone has a chance

Change will not
come
if we wait for some other time.
We are
the ones we've
been waiting for.
We are the
change
that we seek.

We need to steer
clear
of this poverty
of ambition,
where
people want to
drive
fancy cars&
wear nice clothes
&live in
nice apartments,
but
don't
want to work hard
to
accomplish these
things.
Everyone should
try to
realize their
full potential

CONFIRMED! !
Obama is simply
inspirational.

THINK WITH ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND FEEL NELSON MANDELA.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN:
The probability
that we
may fail in
the
struggle ought not
to
deter us from
the support of a cause
we believe to be just.

That some achieve
great success,
is a proof
to all
that others
can achieve it as
well.

Towering genius
disdains
a beaten path.
It seeks
regions hitherto
unexplored.

Things may come
to
those
who wait,but only
the
things left by those who
hustle.

NELSON MANDELA
SPEAKS:
I learned that courage
was not the absence of fear,but
the triumph over it.
The brave man
is not
he who does not
feel
afraid,but he who
conquer
that fear.
It is better to lead
from
behind & to put others in front especially when you
celebrate
victory when
nice things occur.
You take the front line,
when there is
danger.
The people will appreciate your
leadership.

My dear,

the pattern of
God
is to use ordinary
ordinary people to
do
extraordinary
things
in extraordinary
ways.

Sheer individual creativity coupled
with ardent
determination,
you will
be
able to establish yourself as authority
in your specific career.

Don't be @ ease
or
accept conditions
in the society as they are.
There
must be a
ðesire in you
to improve
&even
do things to change the status quo for the best.

MARTIN LUTHER JNR VISIONS AND MOTIVATIONAL WORDS.

A man who
won't
die for something is
not fit living.
Take
the 1st step
in faith,you don't
have
to see the whole
staircase,
just take the 1st
step.
The ultimate measure
of a man is not where he stands
in
moments of
comforts & convenience,
but where he stands @ time of
challenge&
controversy.

Rarely do we
find men who willingly
engage in hard,solid thinking.
There is
an almost
universal quest
for
easy answers &
half-baked
solutions. Nothing pains some people
more than
having to think.
Life most
urgent question
is:
what are you doing for others?
An
individual has not
started living,until
he can
rise above the
narrow confines
of his individualistic concerns to
border concerns of all humanity.

What ever your
life's
work is,do it well.
A man
should do his job
so well that the living,the dead
&
the unborn could do it better.

We must accept finite disappointment,
but never lose
infinite hope.
