When a fire swept through the apartment where Deyvion slept as a baby in his bassinet, he was miraculously rescued by firefighters. Although he survived, the blaze left him with severe burns on his face.
This resilient little boy from Missouri embarked on a difficult recovery journey at a specialized burns unit, fighting to regain his health against the odds. Remarkably, he faced this challenge without the support of a family by his side.
At the age of five, everything changed for Deyvion when he became the foster child of Beth Plunkett, a single mother of two. “He was such a beautiful little boy, and I fell in love with him immediately”, Beth recalled, as reported by WGN9 News. “I often hear people say: ‘Oh, he’s so lucky to have you’, but honestly, I feel just as lucky to have him”, she added.
After spending 2,545 days without a family, Deyvion was finally adopted by Beth. “My biggest wish for him is to be happy and to always feel loved. I want him to set goals and achieve great things, and I have no doubt he will. God has an amazing plan for him”, she said.
In addition to his new mom and siblings, Deyvion has also captured the hearts of the firefighters who saved him. Deputy Chief Eric Smith of the South Metro Fire Department in Raymore and his team still remember the night they rescued this remarkable boy.
On the day of Deyvion’s adoption, Smith and his crew presented him with a special jacket and hat made just for him. They also treated Deyvion and Beth to a ride in their fire truck to the courthouse, where his adoption was finalized.
As they celebrated, Smith gave Deyvion a high five and expressed his pride in the young boy, stating: “He’s incredibly special. While we may not always understand why things happen, we certainly do now”.
Deyvion is surrounded by love, having shown immense courage throughout his journey. This brave and endearing boy truly deserves every bit of happiness. His story is one we all need to hear, a testament to love and compassion. Let’s spread the word about this inspiring little boy and shower him with even more love!
Fans notice concerning detail in a recent photo of 83-year-old Martha Stewart, leading to widespread comments
Martha Stewart is a well-known personality with a global following, but she recently faced backlash for a social media post that many have deemed “tone-deaf”.
The 83-year-old lifestyle mogul received significant praise earlier this year for her appearance in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. However, her latest Instagram update has not sparked the same enthusiasm among her audience.
On August 29, Stewart shared a photo from a cruise she took along Greenland’s east coast. The image features her enjoying a cocktail with the caption: “End of the first zodiac cruise from @swanhelleniccruises into a very beautiful fjord on the east coast of Greenland. We actually captured a small iceberg for our cocktails tonight”.
While Stewart likely meant her post to be lighthearted, it quickly drew criticism from followers who felt her use of an iceberg for her drink was insensitive. Many comments flooded in, expressing concern over her reference to a “small iceberg” amid the ongoing climate crisis. One user remarked: “Martha, the ice caps are meltin, don’t put them in your drink”.
Another follower stated: “I generally admire Martha and her extravagant lifestyle, but it feels a bit tone-deaf for wealthy individuals to enjoy cocktails with icebergs while the planet is suffering”. A third commenter humorously pointed out the absurdity of the situation: “As the climate warms due to the greed of a few, billionaires vacation at melting icebergs, scooping them up for cocktails. Sounds like something out of a dystopian novel!”
One user echoed similar sentiments, expressing their disillusionment: “Global warming and melting ice caps, yet we need glacier ice for cocktails?! I’ve been a fan for years, but seeing this while struggling to afford groceries is disheartening”.
Earlier this year, Stewart made headlines for confidently posing in swimwear for the cover of Sports Illustrated. She shared details about her preparation for the shoot, stating: “I didn’t starve myself, but I avoided bread and pasta for a few months”. She also emphasized her commitment to fitness, mentioning her regular Pilates routine.
In a keynote speech at a Las Vegas event, she highlighted the positive reception of her cover, noting that it inspired women of all ages to feel empowered: “The feedback was incredibly encouraging, showing that if I can do it, they can too”.
