Nurse Saves Severely Burned Baby in 1977—38 Years Later, a Facebook Photo Stops Her in Her Tracks

When Amanda Scarpinati was just three months old, a tragic accident changed her life forever. She rolled off a sofa onto a steam vaporizer, leaving her with severe burns that would require multiple reconstructive surgeries as she grew up.

In 1977, Amanda was taken to Albany Medical Center, where a compassionate nurse named Sue Berger cared for her. Despite Amanda’s painful injuries, Berger tenderly held the bandaged infant in her arms, offering comfort during a difficult time.

After being discharged, Amanda had no memory of that day but cherished the photos of herself as a baby cradled by Berger. Those images became a symbol of hope and kindness for Amanda, who endured years of bullying because of her scars. Determined to find the nurse who had shown her such compassion, Amanda turned to Facebook decades later, sharing her story and the treasured photos.

Thanks to the power of social media, Berger was quickly identified. The heartwarming reunion took place at the very hospital where their paths had first crossed, and the emotional moment was a testament to the lasting impact of small acts of kindness.

Watch the beautiful reunion between Amanda and Sue in the video below, and feel the love and gratitude that has spanned nearly four decades.

Meet the Hottest Type of Men According to the Internet Now: “Rodent” Men

“Men are either eagle handsome, bear handsome, dog handsome, or reptilian handsome,” reads a viral tweet from May 2023, citing Ryan Gosling, Henry Cavill, Heath Ledger, and Timothée Chalamet as examples of these types. The tweet resonated with many — Cavill’s broad shoulders do have a bearlike quality, and Ledger’s blonde hair and wide smile do resemble a golden retriever. However, there’s arguably another category many men fit into: rodent handsome.

Rodent handsome men are usually more svelte than muscular, with pinched, angular features. They might not be conventionally handsome, but this only adds to their appeal. Two recent examples of rodent-handsome men are Challengers co-stars Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist, often compared to Roddy St. James (the rat from Flushed Away) and Stuart Little, respectively.
