00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:13.720
Caalaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm
Chinning Mack with five good news stories until
2
00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:17.480
Christmas. On Tuesday and Thursday,
we're doing five good news Christmas stories.
3
00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:20.399
But today's a Monday, so it's
a regular story. And good news,
4
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:24.960
we figured out who stole your Taco
Bell delivery. That's right, doorbell camera
5
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:30.120
footage captured the thief of the Taco
Bell delivery. If we watched the footage,
6
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:34.679
we see inn Uber EAT's delivery driver
dropping off Taco Bell food on the
7
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:39.159
front porch of an Orlando family.
The driver walks back to the car soon
8
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:43.119
after the thief arrives grabs the bag
in its mouth. Yes, it's not
9
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.679
a human, it's a bear.
The bear stole forty five dollars worth of
10
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:50.359
Taco Bell. The bear put the
bag in its mouth and started walking away
11
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:54.759
without thinking twice about it. Even
more good news, Uber Eats hooked up
12
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:58.200
a refund. Apparently they have some
sort of bear guarantee. Good to know.
13
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:02.359
A teenager and alibe Bama was chosen
as her high school's homecoming queen.
14
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:06.640
What was her father who took everybody's
heart? He escorted her in the midst
15
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:11.719
of battling a debilitating form of cancer. Seventeen year old Sarah Kate said,
16
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.400
I was holding Dad as tight as
I could. Every ten steps, I'd
17
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:15.959
look over and I was like,
are you okay? Can you make it
18
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:22.599
to somebody to come get you.
Her father has stage four metastatic esophageal cancer.
19
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:26.439
He acquires an oxygen tank and just
days before he'd experienced a seizure and
20
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.159
leg paralysis. But when he found
out that Sarah Kate had been nominated for
21
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:33.040
Homecoming Queen, he was determined to
walk her across the football field for the
22
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:36.280
ceremony, just like all the other
dads. Dad said, I wanted to
23
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:38.359
prove to her that I was going
to stand up for her and prove to
24
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:40.680
her that I had the character to
show that I was going to be her
25
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.480
backbone. During that moment, I
was having to tell each leg, we'll
26
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.040
take one foot in front of the
other on walk, and it was frustrating
27
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:49.959
and scary. Mom says, we've
miss proms, We've missed homecomings, we
28
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.120
have missed ball games, we've missed
awards ceremonies. This was an event that
29
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:56.079
he really wanted to take part in
with his daughter. Sarah Kate said,
30
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:57.560
it's important to see and for others
to see that, no matter what it
31
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:01.599
looks like or how it is,
that there's miracles in everything. CNN reports
32
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:07.479
on an experimental spinal cord implant that
helps Parkinson's patients walk Mark can now step
33
00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:12.080
into an elevator without his body stiffening
and freezing in place. He could take
34
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.240
a three mile stroll without stopping.
He can stand up and out of a
35
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:20.599
chair with ease. Mark has been
living with Parkinson's disease for almost three decades.
36
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:23.360
He said walking in a store would
be really difficult and impossible before because
37
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:27.360
of the freezing of gait that would
often happen in those environments, and now
38
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.800
doesn't happen anymore. I don't have
freezing anymore. Mark was surgically implanted with
39
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:37.240
an experimental spinal cord neuroprosthetis to correct
walking sorders and people with Parkinson's disease step
40
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:39.240
by step. He said it's helped
him get a stride back. Researchers now
41
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:44.039
plan to conduct tests and six other
patients. The work is being supported by
42
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.560
a one million dollar donation from the
Michael J. Fox Foundation. Congratulations to
43
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:53.319
Kaylee. She's thirty three and recently
finished the New York City Marathon. Kaylee
44
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:55.960
became one of the few women with
Down syndrome to complete the grueling race.
45
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:00.400
I was also in that race,
so I admire you tremendously for this.
46
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:05.759
Kaylee is no stranger in a long
distance running, having previously taking part in
47
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:08.439
the Boston Marathon and twenty half marathons. However, she says the New York
48
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:12.240
event was special as she ran in
honor of her late grandmother, who helped
49
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:16.879
inspire her passion for running. Good
news. If you were hoping Dior would
50
00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:23.759
come out with something for your baby, well, the fashion house has answered
51
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:29.319
your prayers. They've launched a scented
water they referred to as a gentle reminder
52
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:32.280
of sweet memories of early childhood.
Oh yeah. The scented water comes in
53
00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:37.639
light notes of fruit, pillowy cotton, and velvety petals. The bottle is
54
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.520
personalized with the colored ribbon of your
choice to accompany your child like their lucky
55
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:46.240
Star. You can also get some
hydrating body milk or some gentle bath cleansing
56
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:50.520
foams. One Twitter user wrote,
what's the point They're gonna vomit milk every
57
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:54.360
two seconds? And one mom said, as every parent knows the most expensive
58
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:58.960
scent in the world can't beat the
smell of your newborn's head. If York
59
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:01.240
could bottle that, it'd be on
to a winner. And that's your five
60
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:05.560
good News stories for today. Tomorrow
