THE DOG WOULDN’T LET THEM TAKE HIS HEADLAMP OFF
After the Venezuela earthquake, the rescue team was finally done for the night.
But their search dog sat outside the tent, refusing to settle down. He wouldn’t let anyone take off his headlamp, and kept pulling toward an area they had already combed. His handler was exhausted, but finally said, “Alright, let’s go.” The dog led them straight back into the rubble.
Then they heard it a tiny cry. Under the broken concrete, wrapped in a blue blanket, was a baby still alive. Everyone else thought the search was over.
The dog knew it wasn’t.
Correct. And when Pfizer data showed that natural immunity from a prior infection was as good or better than the shot, CDC and FDA covered that up too, so they could get more people to take the shot, exposing even more people to needless risk of serious side effects.
Chris Nikic, the first person with Down syndrome to complete an Ironman, completes Ironman 70.3 Massachusetts.
Shortly before the race, Nikic announced that he needed a guide to run alongside him for the race.
That's when Dr. Tommy Martin decided to step up.
"I learned more in this race than almost any other I have competed in, and none of it was about race tactics or how to PR. It was about life, perspective, determination, and grit. I owe all of that to Chris," Martin said.
"I hope every finish line Chris crosses serves as a reminder to the world: your diagnosis, your situation, your circumstances do not define your potential!"
Congrats, Chris!
