Rare Simple

This dad shared about his ‘brutal experience’ involving his infant at home. While washing some clothes in the laundry room, dad took a close look at the laundry machine, which was already running – and saw something horrifying that left him breathless. His baby’s smiling face was starring right back at him from inside the washing machine.

Dad was horrified and feared for his baby’s life! The social media post accumulated more than 3,400 upvotes and counting. There were also dozens of comments shared by people from across the globe.

Fortunately, the baby was not really in the washer. Instead, mom had put a t-shirt into the machine that had the baby’s face printed on the front of it. Dad was able to breathe a sigh of relief when he realized it was not really his baby in the washer, but it took him some time before his pounding heart relaxed and returned to normal.

Dad decided to snap a picture of the washing machine to show people on Imgur how he was not as crazy as they might think. The baby really does appear to be inside the washing machine. Dad contributed the following comment about what he saw in the laundry room that set his heart racing. He also said that his wife ‘made a terrible mistake because she didn’t put a warning note on the washer. The dad reportedly said: “Please, if you are ever washing your favorite shirt with a picture of your child on it, just put a warning note on the washer or something..”

One social media user suggested a sensible solution to this baby-in-the-laundry problem: “Turn your shirts inside out. The prints will last so much longer!” However, parents – and pet owners – need to be careful that their little ones and furry friends are not in the dryer or washing machine before they start a load.

Being a mother is considered the hardest job in the world, we all know that. And while the to do list may seem never ending some days, this video offers perspective on how much a mother’s hard work is appreciated.

The video starts off with a man coming home from work to greet his wife and baby. He asks his wife how her day was, as the video cuts to flashbacks of the mother’s eventful day.

In the video, the amazing mother is awakened to the sound of her young daughter crying from what appears to be a bad dream. She leaves her bed to go comfort the child. Read the full story here ▶

When parents welcome a baby in a hospital, they generally know the staff are competent and will give their child the best care. In this case, a careless nurse was the cause of a baby needing to have his leg amputated.

Two nurses were found responsible for the negligence and were fired by the hospital. The Deputy Director of the hospital extended his apologies for the incident, with the hospital offering to pay some of the baby’s medical expenses.

The family has yet to accept that offer, however. The baby’s grandmother was understandably worried about the child’s future, commenting: “The baby has become disabled just four days after birth. Read the full story here ▶

This brave woman, Sheri, never thought that her life would flash before her eyes because of ‘one small bite’. But that’s exactly what happened to this amazing woman.

Just one day after the incident, the pain had gotten worse. That’s when she decided to seek care from a healthcare provider and was prescribed antibiotics.

However, the medicine did not work as quickly as she had hoped, and the area around her lip continued to swell. Before long, it was clear to the woman and those near her that her problem was much more severe than they had originally thought. Read the full story here ▶

The 27-year-old trans woman, Minor, who reportedly impregnated two female inmates at a women’s only prison received bad news. Officials said that Minor was sentenced to 30 years in prison for stabbing her foster father to death. Following her conviction, Minor has written about her mistreatment on her blog. She described how prison guards singled out her transgender status. When she requested that a female officer search her, one guard allegedly mocked her.

Officials said that Minor was relocated to a men’s jail, where she is housed in a vulnerable unit. Minor reportedly said that she was misgendered and beaten by corrections officers during transfer and is now at risk of being assaulted by imprisoned males. She was relocated from the correctional facility after getting two women pregnant at the women’s institution. During her transfer, the convict was allegedly assaulted by prison guards and attempted to take her life. Following her attempt to hang herself to death while on transport to the men’s facility, she was put on suicide watch.

Minor also claims in another article on the site that prison officers assaulted her during the transfer from the ladies’ jail to the men’s jail. Minor was kept for a few weeks at the state prison, where guards referred to her as a he at least thirty times. After the story of Minor becoming a headline that she had gotten pregnant with two women at correctional facility, she was transferred to a different facility. The trans woman also opened up ‘about being forced to live in a male prison’ on her blog. She said she was “shipped” to the “male facility” due to the fact that I had hung myself in the van.

“Suicide watch was imposed on me before going into this dimly lighted cell. Prior to entering this dreary chamber, I attempted to negotiate with authorities if a female officer could strip-search me since I felt more at ease doing so. After the Lieutenant denied me, I asked for this. He threatened to cut all of my clothes off and put me in a dry cell if I did not obey his instructions and allowed two male cops to strip search me. I wept as the male officer spoke to me in a way that I felt was incorrect. As inmates who are on watch are housed in the detention unit rather than the infirmary, I was placed in a dark cell within detention housing.” Although she was permitted to keep her cosmetics, she felt that if she wore them in the male facility, it would be a death wish. She said, “I have accepted that I am in a male facility, but I have not accepted nor will I ever agree to or accept that I am anything other than a woman who happens to be transgender.”

It may seem hard to believe, but all dogs, even the chihuahua and basset hound, are descended from wolves. It’s just that humans have had a big hand in changing their genetic makeup and turning them into hugely different breeds over the centuries.

We all love dogs, right? Well yes and Hayden is one of us. When she arrived home one day, she was left stunned when she discovered odd marks on her dog Jackson.

She got closer and realized she needed to take her pooch to the vet. But, when she was told what the odd marks really were, she was left stunned and screamed for help.

At first, Hayden thought the strange marks on her dog’s body were likely bug bites. When she looked closer, however, she knew it was something much worse. Hayden was horrified to discover that Jackson didn’t have raised bumps, but instead, he had actual holes in his skin and a lot of them. Perplexed, she took her beloved pet to the veterinarian, but nothing could prepare her for what would be discovered. Hayden was stunned to find out that it wasn’t bug bites at all, and there was a much bigger problem at hand. There were indeed holes in Jackson’s flesh, and the cause was downright sickening. Jackson had been shot, repeatedly. As the vet got to work, shaving the dog in order to get to the wounds, 20 pellets and 7 BBs were removed from Jackson’s body.

In addition, the staff estimated that there were at least another 20 pellets and BBs lodged in his body that they couldn’t remove. But, it gets worse. The vet also estimated that another 20 projectiles had struck the dog and bounced off. That means Jackson was shot over 60 times. “I was in shock, I didn’t even know what to think,” Hayden recalled. Hayden wasn’t the only one stunned by the senseless act of violence against the animal. Police were called, and they were shocked to see what had been done to Jackson as well. The responding officers found BBs stuck in a tree and followed the direction of fire. This led them to obtain a search warrant for the house next door belonging to 44-year-old Tim.

In addition to a BB gun and pellets, the police found methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia at the suspect’s home. Tim was arrested on drug charges as police awaited test results to confirm that the gun and pellets matched those that caused Jackson’s injuries in order to build their case of animal cruelty against him. As for Jackson, he was expected to make a full recovery.

Some people are just so clueless it is funny. The idiot featured below is a woman who lives in Iowa, and she thought it would be a good idea to live stream herself harassing police officers.

But first, she had to figure out how to work the camera! Really? Melyssa Jo Kelly from Cedar Rapids, Iowa saw two officers wearing black bands (which is a remembrance for fallen comrades).

Kelly decided to taunt the two officers and even refused to step outside when the café owner asked her to. Read the full story here ▶

The role of chance in the discovery of archaeological sites and portable finds is considerable. Farmers have often unearthed archaeological finds while plowing their fields, and accidental discovery by construction crews is common.

Occasionally an amateur does make an important discovery, the further excavation of which can then be taken over by trained professionals. Such was the case at a small creek in Scotland.

It may not seem particularly impressive at first, but one step inside and you will be amazed at what you see. Read the full story here ▶

Third grader, Caleb Hunt, attends Carolyn Lewis Elementary School in Conway, Arkansas and is being hailed as a hero!

Caleb, 8, woke up one morning and heard some strange groaning noises coming from his neighbor’s home. And when he looked outside, he saw his neighbor, Mrs. Watson, 81, laying on the floor of her garage.

Mrs. Watson often brings over treats for Caleb and his younger sister, so naturally when he saw her laying on the floor of her garage, he rushed over to see if he could help. Read the full story here ▶

The unfortunate mother, Heather, said that she lost her young son and has since been working hard to share her important message with all parents.

Heather shared her story on her social media account under the heading “The Blue Stain”. As you read it for yourself, you quickly understand why it is pulling at so many people’s heartstrings.

One day, the mother was picking up some slime off the floor that her daughter had dropped. It’s then that everything became obvious to her.

Her daughter had done her best to clean up the stain left by the slime, but Heather naturally had to get in there too and help. She was, as natural for any parent, annoyed by the situation. But as she began muttering under her breath, she suddenly remembered a different stain. A stain from 14 years prior. At that time, Heather had of two-year old triplets as well as a four year old little boy. She did not have her daughter yet. On this particular evening, she was struggling to get her 4 active boys into bed. With four young children in the house, life was nothing but a tornado of activity and non-stop chaos. She spent most of the time chasing her kids — often feeling like she was facing the potential of a third world war. “My hands were full, but so was my heart.” As night drew near that evening 14 years ago, she recalled the struggle of feeding and bathing all four boys, all the while cleaning up after the usual mess.

The children had music blasting and ran around singing and dancing, full of energy as usual. This would be the last time in a while that this kind of atmosphere would prevail in the house… for several reasons. Amidst the chaos and her struggle to get the boys in bed, she looked down at the carpet and saw a large ink-blue stain. One of the triplets, Jacob, stood nearby, broken pen in hand — the ink had spread all over the carpet. It was also all over his pajamas, his body and more or less everything else in the room! “We had only lived in this house for six months and now the carpet was completely ruined. We scrubbed that stain for an hour that night, but yet it remained.”

The stain continued to get on her nerves and she was annoyed at it every time she saw it. “It made me feel angry and it made me feel like such a failure for leaving out the pen where my young son could reach it. That blue stain was just a big fat negative in my life. I hated it,” Heather says. But as her frustration over the stain continued to grow, suddenly, it all went away, in a single, life-changing moment. The little boy who had broken the pen that day was soon diagnosed with cancer. And two years following the heart-shattering news, Jacob was gone. As Jacob went to heaven, the blue stain remained. “It was still there . . . and now . . . it was a constant reminder of my son. It was a constant reminder of my frustration over something so trivial . . . something so unimportant in the scheme of life.” Heather now wants mothers everywhere to realize that young children will of course always make a mess. Raising young children can be incredibly frustrating and as they get older, a parent faces new trials and challenges. For Heather, the blue stain is now a constant reminder that life with children can be messy, but is so worth living.
