Nurse breastfeeds infant during surgery to calm her down


A nurse has gone above and beyond her duty when she breast-fed a one-month-old patient during a surgery this week in Guangdong, southern China. The baby girl, named as Wei Wei, was in the middle of a surgery on September 29 when she started crying and wouldn't stop, reported People's Daily Online.

Li Baoxia, who was still lactating, decided to step in and breastfeed the infant patient, who then calmed down so the surgery could continue.

Surgery continued successfully while the nurse breastfed Wei Wei.

According to reports, the baby was undergoing a surgery for an anal abscess when she started crying and couldn't stop.

Due to the baby's age and size, only local anaesthesia was used, which meant the baby could still move.

Li Baoxia had just finished a surgery in a neighbouring operating theatre when she heard about the baby's condition from a colleague.

Without hesitation, the nurse stepped in and breastfed the baby to calm her down.

She then continued to breastfeed and hold the baby while the surgery continued.

The heart-warming scene was captured by a member of the medical staff and shared online.

After the successful surgery, Wei Wei's father was extremely grateful towards the doctor.

He held her hand as he said: 'Thank you! You not only cured my child but also breastfed her. As a father, I cannot thank you enough.'

The father then exclaimed, 'You're an angel nurse.'

That sentiment was echoed by many Chinese web users since the photograph emerged on social media such as Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter.

However, many also questioned whether the nurse had the right to breastfeed someone else's baby.

It is not clear where the baby's mother was or whether the nurse had permission from the family before she stepped in to help.

The surgery was successful and the baby is recovering well.

Mums fight back against controversial advice that kissing kids on the lips is 'too sexual' with pics of themselves with their kids


A few weeks ago, a child psychologist from Californian university UCLA, Dr Charlotte Reznick, said kissing children on the lips was too 'sexual' and asked parents to stop it as it is confusing for young children. Australian mothers have slammed the claim, saying 'it's perfectly natural and loving.' They further protested by sharing photos online of them kissing their children on the lips. See more photos after the cut..


Dr Reznick's  comments were originally sparked by an old photo of Hollywood actor Harry Connick Jr kissing his then eight-year-old daughter on the lips.

Photo: 14yr old Junior Olympian dies after brain-eating bug entered his nose while swimming


Amoeba entered 14-year-old Michael Riley's nose while swimming in a lake north of Houston with his cross country team on August 13, AP reports. Michael Riley Jr.’s family says he developed a headache and became disoriented after the swimming. He was taken to the hospital where he was diagnosed with Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis (men-ingo-in-Sephalite-us).

The amoeba entered his nasal passages and made its way into his brain. Riley’s cousin Jennifer Hohman said in a statement that he was taken to Texas Children’s Hospital and placed in a medically induced coma until tests proved he had lost all brain function and couldn’t breathe without support. The hospital disconnected the ventilator Sunday. Hohman confirmed that he died.

Michael competed in the Junior Olympics three times and was due to start high school this year.

Tutenkhamun's eggplant was erect when he was mummified so he would look like a god


The world's most famous mummy, Tutenkhamun, was buried with his penis standing at a 90 degree angle. Now experts believe that his everlasting erection was made to make King Tut look like Osiris, the god of the afterlife.

According to Egyptologist Salima Ikram, professor at the American University in Cairo, it was to counter efforts by his father King Akjenaten to establish a religion of one god.


King Tut had, however, worked to reverse his father's ideology and return Egypt to the traditional worshipping of several gods.

Professor Ikram believes he was buried with his erect manhood in a bit to continue his endeavour even in death. The upright penis actually broke off after the discovery of the tomb, amid speculation it was stolen.

Shell oil workers 'are fired after video of them having sex is found by man's angry wife


Two oil workers have been sacked after a video of them having sex in a hotel room was shared online. Lee Hanlon, 32, and Amy Maxwell, 33, who are both married and met while working for Shell, recorded their illicit encounter on his mobile phone.

The film was discovered by Mr Hanlon’s wife Charon, who sent it to all his contacts including friends, workmates and bosses in an act of revenge. But the footage then ‘spread like wildfire’ as more people passed it on in messages and emails.


It is understood police are investigating the distribution of the video as well as allegations that Mrs Hanlon, 37, vandalised her husband’s car after discovering his affair. A police spokesman said: ‘Inquiries are at an early stage.’

Mr Hanlon, a former project engineer for Shell, is believed to have met Mrs Maxwell six months ago at the oil firm’s decommissioning plant in Aberdeen. They agreed to meet at a Premier Inn hotel earlier this month and filmed their night together.

Mrs Hanlon is understood to have found three clips a few days later when she used her husband’s phone to take a photo at a friend’s wedding.

Afterwards, she set up a group on messaging app WhatsApp and, posing as her husband, shared the footage with all of the contacts listed on his phone. She wrote: ‘Been caught cheating on wife and 8 month old baby with s*** from Shell. Anyone else up for it?’
The three clips then went viral online. Mrs Hanlon also allegedly scratched ‘cheating b******’ into the paintwork of her husband’s Audi.
But it is understood the couple, who have a young son, are still together. There was no answer at their three-bedroom £300,000 home in Westhill, near Aberdeen, yesterday.
Mrs Maxwell refused to comment last night. But she told The Sun on Sunday that Mrs Hanlon’s decision to share the video had ruined her life. ‘I don’t know how to describe all this,’ she said.
‘Everybody has seen the videos. It has ruined lives. It wasn’t an affair, it was a one-off. It was only on his phone for two days before his wife found it.’

Mrs Maxwell said she was still with her husband but that they were planning to move away from the area. Their £465,000 home in Banchory, Aberdeenshire – where they moved last April – is now for sale. Mrs Maxwell added: ‘So many people have been in touch to tell me about the video.

‘Everyone has seen the clips – apart from my husband. But he knows about them, obviously.
‘We’re still together. We were always planning to move away but this has speeded things up a bit. I’m not looking for a job just now. I decided to take some time off. I’ve had sympathy from everyone. I’ve no idea what their relationship [Mr and Mrs Hanlon’s] was like but she was obviously searching through his phone. You don’t do that without a reason.’

An oil worker told The Sun on Sunday: ‘The couple’s videos are the talk of the town – they spread like wildfire. I don’t know anyone who has not seen them. ‘
Mr and Mrs Hanlon married at a boutique hotel in South Queensferry, near Edinburgh, in November 2013.
A video of the couple’s wedding day posted online shows them posing for photographs and laughing with friends and family.
A spokesman for Shell said Mr Hanlon and Mrs Maxwell were not directly employed by the company, but were contractors hired through an agency.

She said they had since been ‘redeployed’ by the agency.
