GOOD NEWS - the Balance

I see so much death, grossness, so much psycho crap in here, and even some of you show that we all have some form of issue or another.
I think its healthy to have good news as well :)
Wonder how long this thread will last just posting good news

Heres my first input.. Others feel free to add..

http://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/fires...ola-in-africa/

Harbel is a company town made up of 80,000 Firestone workers and their families surrounding the rubber plantation.

NPR News reports: “Firestone detected its first Ebola case on March 30, when an employee’s wife arrived from northern Liberia. She’d been caring for a disease-stricken woman and was herself diagnosed with the disease. Since then Firestone has done a remarkable job of keeping the virus at bay. It built its own treatment center and set up a comprehensive response that’s managed to quickly stop transmission.”

The head of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s team in Liberia, has hailed Firestone’s efforts as resourceful, innovative and effective.

About 280ml of his bone marrow was transplanted to Amelia on July 9
Lachy reproduced the bone marrow within a couple of weeks
Amelia has been in isolation for 100 days in Brisbane and finds out her diagnosis on Thursday
Amelia hopes to be able to go home to the Gold Coast after the results
