Mother hears dead baby's heartbeat inside 4 year old transplant recipient

A woman whose seven-month-old son died after being reportedly abused by a babysitter's boyfriend donated his organs - and has now heard the boy's heartbeat in a young girl.

Heather Clark couldn't hide her emotions as she listened to the heart of four-year-old organ recipient Jordan Drake at Phoenix Children's Hospital.

Donate Life Arizona wrote on Facebook Saturday: 'Amid the unthinkable grief of losing her son Lukas, Heather made a decision that saved three lives.

'Jordan received Lukas' precious heart when she was just 18 months old. 'Yesterday, Heather heard her son's heartbeat for the first time in nearly three years.'

Clark and Drake's mother, Esther Gonzalez, were filmed by KDVR crying and hugging while meeting one another for the first time.

Gonzalez was heard telling Clark: 'I just can't believe this is happening.'

Jordan gifted Clark with a red teddy bear covered in pink hearts that when pressed made a heartbeat sound.

'That's Lukas' heartbeat,' Gonzalez explained, leading to Clark crying. 'Thank you, Jordan,' Clark said. 'It's perfect.'

Clark also put on a stethoscope and placed it upon Jordan's chest, listening to her late son's heart beating.

'It's so strong,' Clark was filmed saying. When she was done, Clark gave Jordan a hug and a kiss.

Jordan later used the stethoscope herself, and heard Clark's heartbeat. Clark also shared photographs of Lukas at the emotional meeting.

At one point, Clark told Gonzalez in the footage:

'And another amazing thing with donating his organs is it gave me the chance to hold him again.'

Clark said in a January 22 post on the Facebook page Justice For Lukas Scot:

'One week from today I will be listening to Lukas' heartbeat once again. 'I will be holding Jordan in my arms showering her with love and kisses!'

Anonymous man who has been in hospital bed for 16 years identified

A man who’s been lying anonymously in a hospital bed at Sharp Coronado Hospital for 16 years finally has a name.
The man, known all these years as “Garage 66,” is severely brain damaged and on life support. He cannot speak and does not react to his environment. Little was known of his life.
The hospital’s Villa Coronado Skilled Nursing Facility has been his home since 1999, when a car accident left him fighting for his life.

On Friday, the Mexican Consulate in San Diego announced that a collaboration of medics, immigration authorities, politicians and educators had discovered the man’s identity.

Due to confidentiality laws protecting patient information, Sharp HealthCare said it could not disclose the patient’s name, details of his condition or the circumstances of the accident. The man’s family members said they won’t address the media and have asked that their privacy be respected, according to the consulate.

“But his Sharp caregivers can now address him by name, and we are all celebrating the dignity afforded a person who has an identity and a history, as well as the peace of mind afforded a family who for many years has not known the condition or fate of their loved one,” said spokesman Tom Hanscom.

Several families came forward believing the patient to be a long-lost relative, according to Hanscom. A committee made up of community and government officials administered biometric testing and DNA matches were confirmed in December, he said.

The hospital worked with local media in 2014 to make the patient’s story public in an effort to locate family members.
The man, believed to be in his mid-30s, was in a van when it crashed near the U.S.-Mexico border near El Centro, according to the investigative news outlet, inewsource. He was ejected from the vehicle.
The patient was transferred to the UC San Diego trauma center in Hillcrest, where he spent one year in the hospital, inewsource reported. That’s where he was assigned the random name, “Garage 66,” a common practice for patients who are not alert or awake and have no identification, a hospital spokesperson told the publication.

Garage’s medical care — estimated at $700 per day — has been funded through Medi-Cal, California’s program for the impoverished and the disabled, according to inewsource.
Enrique Morones, founder of the immigrant rights organization Border Angels, first learned of Garage 66 last year and was involved in the binational efforts to locate his family. He got a call on Friday morning with news of the patient’s identity.
“I was just overjoyed,” he said.
But Morones said more light needs to be shed on the thousands of people who go missing at the border and are never reunited with family.

“There are a lot of Garage 66s out there. Maybe it’s not a 16-year old case, maybe it’s a 6-day old case. But there’s a mom who still wants to know, ‘did my son make it?’”. “This is going to give a lot of people hope.”

Doctor who injected himself with Charlie Sheen's HIV-positive blood claims to have cured countries of HIV

The controversial doctor who famously injected himself with Charlie Sheen's HIV positive blood has claimed his goats milk treatment can cure the virus.

Dr. Samir Chachoua made the extraordinary claims he had 'cured countries' of HIV and Aids during an interview on Real Time with Bill Maher last night.
Chachoua - who is not licensed to practice medicine in the U.S. - has been treating Sheen who revealed last year that he has been battling with virus for four years.

He added that his 'cure', based on the milk of arthritic goats, had made the virus 'undetectable' in the Hollywood star, Gawker reports.

The doctor says that the CAEV virus present in the milk 'destroys HIV and protects people who drink it for life.'

Chachoua went onto announce he had eradicated HIV and another virus called chikungunya in Comoros, an island nation off the eastern coast of Africa, in 2006.

The doctor did not go into any detail to how his supposed treatment would 'destroy HIV', neither did he offer any scientific studies backing up his wild claims.

The 50-year-old Golden Globe winner - who was immediately put on strong antiviral drugs which suppressed the virus after his diagnosis - stopped taking his medication in order to try an experimental 'vaccine' in Mexico.

Sheen has since admitted earlier this month on The Dr. Oz Show that his HIV numbers are 'up'.

But Chachoua claimed the troubled star was 'the first adult in history to go HIV negative' during his appearance on Maher's show.

He told the host that when Sheen was on 'the incredibly powerful medical cocktails, he still showed virus.'

'As soon as he started my treatment he became undetectable,' he claimed.

The bizarre and false claims were followed by a pre-recorded clip of Sheen complaining to the doctor about some of the side effects of his antiretroviral therapy including migraines and 'poo poo pants.'

'It's a horrible way to live, all these side effects disappeared the minute he started my therapy and the minute he started my therapy, his liver went to normal levels,' claimed Chachoua.

'Even the charts they held up on our show, all the great tests they showed, they were during my treatment, not theirs.'

Chachoua also discussed the moment he had injected himself with Sheen's blood, saying he had been 'that confident' of his cure.

Sheen has previously admitted he is risking his life with the untested treatment.

Charlie Sheen boasted in a pre-recorded segment on the Dr Oz show: 'I've been off my meds about a week now. I feel great. Am I risking my life? So what? I was born dead. That part of it doesn't phase me at all.'

'I didn't see it as Russian roulette. I didn't see it as a complete dismissal of the conventional course we've been on. I'm not recommending that anyone - I'm presenting myself as a type of guinea pig.'

But his latest series of tests showed that Chachoua's 'cure' had actually led worrying news that his HIV numbers were going up for the first time.

'I had been non-detectable, non-detectable and checking the blood every week and then found out the numbers are back up,' the Anger Management star told the 55-year-old cardiothoracic surgeon Dr Oz.

'I'm amazed that I'm actually alive'.

Both Dr. Oz and Sheen's physician Dr. Robert Huizenga condemned the treatments he was receiving from Dr. Sam Chachoua, who's not licensed to practice in the States.

That might be a good little thing to do. He was pretty upset this week, so things were said.”
