They’ve found the cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Babies who die of SIDS have a significantly lower level of an enzyme, the purpose of which is to rouse the baby from sleep if necessary (such as the baby stops breathing). This is extremely huge science and medicine news. There is a biological reason. It’s not random.

Previously, parents were told SIDS could be prevented if they took proper precautions: laying babies on their backs, not letting them overheat and keeping all toys and blankets out of the crib were a few of the most important preventative steps. So, when SIDS still occurred, parents were left with immense guilt, wondering if they could have prevented their baby’s death.

Dr. Carmel Harrington, the lead researcher for the study, was one of these parents. Her son unexpectedly and suddenly died as an infant 29 years ago. (...) Harrington explained what she was told about the cause of her child’s death.

"Nobody could tell me. They just said it's a tragedy. But it was a tragedy that didn't sit well with my scientific brain.”

Since then, she’s worked to find the cause of SIDS, both for herself and for the medical community as a whole. She went on to explain why this discovery is so important for parents whose babies suffered from SIDS.

"These families can now live with the knowledge that this was not their fault," she said.

(...) As the cause is now known, researchers can turn their attention to a solution. In the next few years, those in the medical community who have studied SIDS will likely work on a screening test to identify babies who are at risk for SIDS and hopefully prevent it altogether.

To me she looks like the patron saint of women who want to be left alone on public transit.

@cumaeansibyl omg yes! Between the book, the ipod, and extra layer covering her ears, she couldn’t be screaming louder “No, I don’t want to hear your stupid pick up lines”

If you pray to her for protection anyone who tries to hit on you will suddenly get a text message from the person they least want to talk to, with bad news that they can’t ignore, so they’ll have to spend the rest of the ride dealing with it.

@kindfoxes This is out and out stolen art.

Here’s a link to the photographers fb page, here is her own website and here’s one to the post where you can buy prints of this photo and more made in the same series.

This is what artists mean when they say that stealing, reposting and not sourcing art costs them money. At the very least you could have posted a source to the photographer. And don’t tell me you couldn’t find it because it’s literally the top post on a reverse image search.

Remember people, don’t reblog unsourced art without captions, it’s 99.9999% stolen from someone.

okay but for pride month all I want is a gay pacific islander rom-com starring Keanu Reeves and Jason Momoa with Keanu as like some kind of single dad art restorer or something living in a big city until he gets a letter informing him that he’s inherited a house and some land on a quiet little Hawaiian island and packs up his stuff and his adoring, smartass teenage daughter (played by Auli’i Cravalho) and heads out there only to meet Jason’s character, who runs a surf shop or a restaurant specializing in traditional food or something and Keanu’s daughter takes him to a bonfire on the beach with their neighbors one night and Jason’s eyes meet his across the fire and they both feel a spark that didn’t come from the blaze and start sweating, so they decide to go for a swim together and end up meeting a dolphin or something that was obviously sent by the gods of the islands because it gently nudges them toward each other until they’re laughing and kissing and eventually falling in love and they end up saving a stretch of local ocean from some asshole white drilling company exec or something, I don’t know and also Dwayne Johnson is playing Jason’s practical joker older brother who teams up with Auli’i to make those two morons see that they’re meant for each other because I said so the end.
