googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); Hero is normally a very quiet dog, so when he started whining incessantly one day, his owner knew something was very wrong. Four-year-old Sadie has type one diabetes and Down syndrome, which makes it quite difficult for her parents to monitor the little girl’s blood sugar levels. That’s where Hero comes in. The service dog has been specially trained to detect decreases in blood sugar. While many dogs have been trained to help diabetics in the same way, what Hero did one day is almost beyond comprehension. Little Sadie was at school five miles away from her home when Hero suddenly started whining to no end. Knowing something was wrong, her mom decided to call the school and ask them to check Sadie’s blood sugar. Everything looked fine at first, but within a half hour, it had dropped from 122 to 82. Hero somehow sensed what was wrong from miles away! Hero thoroughly deserves his name. If Sadie’s blood sugar had dropped any lower, she could have slipped into a diabetic coma. Service animals are so incredible at what they do, and their dedication is absolutely unmatched. Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/blood-sugar-dog/
There are endless treasures to be found in our grandparents’ attics. While digging through these family heirlooms and artifacts, we’re lucky if we come across a few tattered photos from the war, or a chipped teacup from an old collection. Although substantial finds may be few and far between, these relics help us piece together the stories of our lives. But one man hit the jackpot one day while rummaging through his grandparents’ things. What he discovered sent him on a stunning journey back in time. He found a perfectly preserved film of his grandparents’ wedding that dates back to 1944. Vimeo / Bliss Productions Although this footage was captured decades ago, the affection shown by these two lovebirds is timeless. My Grandparents Wedding :: 16mm from 1944 from bliss* productions on Vimeo. Grandparents are often viewed as the pillars of the family. They’re seen as sage, wizened monuments to everything that younger generations stand for. It’s rare that we get to peek behind the curtain and marvel at who they were before we were born, and now that this man has stepped back in time, he will be able to move forward with a whole new perspective on who he is and where he came from.

We all know how extremely busy we can get. Unfortunately, most of us are so caught up in work and daily tasks that we don’t realize how quickly time flies by. As our lives become more demanding, it’s harder to find the time to visit family members who don’t live nearby. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBP_ATF’); }); This woman knows exactly what I mean. She went years without seeing her brother. Because of his busy life in a different state and the fact that she is a single mother who isn’t able to take time off work, they spent 24 years apart. But when she came home one day to see her daughter, she got the best surprise ever. I can’t imagine how amazing this moment was for them. How sweet was that? Even though they were separated for so long, it’s awesome that they were finally able to reunite. I think we should all go and call (or visit!) our siblings or family members. I know I’m going to!

The new app Dubsmash is a hilarious tool that people can use to make funny lip-syncing videos. It’s really simple, but the fun is endless.

After a year, they compiled some of their favorites! (via TIME) These two are due for an appearance on Lip Sync Battle. Based on this, I think it’s pretty safe to say that these two are pros.
