An elderly man was rescued from the icy waters of a Michigan lake with the help of his dog. In a news release, Michigan State Police said authorities responded to a nine one one call for sixty five year old man. He had fallen through the ice. When he fell, Ruby, the dog, was with him. So when the rescuers couldn't reach the man because of the icy conditions, you know, you don't want to fall through the lake and have two people in the lake, he asked the man to send Ruby over to him. Ruby ran towards the rescuer, who attached a rescue disc to Ruby's collar and asked the man to call Ruby back. Ruby ran back to the owner with the rescue disc. The rescuer guided the man on how to use the rescue disc. Rescuers on the site were able to pull the man to safety. He was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for treatment.

University of Pennsylvania doctor has hooked a genetically modified pig liver up to a brain dead patient, and we're able to have the organs successfully filter the man's blood for seventy two hours, making the technique a potential bridge for patients as they wait for a human liver transplant. Wow, that's amazing. Unlike previous procedures where doctors transplanted pig organs directly into the human body, these doctors chose to perform an extra corporeal perfusion, in which the pig liver is hooked up outside the body. Doctors had the pig liver stored in a mini fridge sized device that is usually used to keep human organs alive and perfused with blood for eventual transplant to a patient. They then hooked up the pig liver device to the brain dead patient and we're able to have the contraption filtered blood successfully with no sign of inflammation in the pig organ. In a statement, one of the surgeons said, any time a patient dies while waiting for transplant, it's a tragedy and we're always working to develop new ways to extend their lives. Great job there.
