MIDDLEVILLE, Mich. - With houses side-by-side on Briggs Road in Middleville, Austin McKian and Erand Smith describe themselves as typical neighbors.“I’ll be out doing yard work and stuff and he’ll just come over and he’ll just help,” said Smith.They try to help each other out whenever they can, doing yard work, cleaning gutters, or shoveling snow.“I love helping people,” said McKian. “If I can help anyone when the time is there, I’ll try to do it.”Their latest act of service though is taking it a step forward.“We just took a bad situation and made it into something good, something funny,” said McKian.Smith, a sculptor, created a one-of-a-kind, monster-esque prosthetic cover for McKian.“An alien, bug type thing is what I went for,” said Smith.After complications from an ankle injury in 2018, doctors decided a below-the-knee amputation would be the best option for McKian to ease his pain, but within a few months of that surgery, he faced another obstacle.McKian is one of the 27.5 million Americans uninsured and he cannot afford a new, properly-fitted socket, which is making his recovery difficult.“Phantom pains, neurological issues, blood flow issues, right now my stump is getting very cold to the touch,” said McKian.McKian plans to apply for coverage next year, but while he waits for that, Smith decided the prosthetic cover would be a unique way to deal in the meantime.“We took a tracing of his leg basically, and just made a cardboard cut out of the shape and then I laid that out, flat sculpted it all, then took a mold of it, and then cast it with that material,” said Smith.Smith finished it this month.“I felt like I was 12 again,” said McKian. “I loved it. It made me laugh instantly, I was like this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. It keeps my mind off of the pain quite a bit, makes people laugh, they love seeing it.”Both men hope the creation not only raises awareness about limb loss but encourages people to treat everyone like their neighbor.“If you can take some of the good stuff that’s happened to you and pass that on to someone it doesn’t take anything away from you,” said Smith.“Lend a hand when people need a hand because there’s going to be a day when everyone needs a hand,” said McKian.This story was first reported by Marisa Oberle at WXMI in Grand Rapids, Michigan. 2326

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Five-year-old NeeCee, a female snow leopard at the Louisville Zoo, has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 in humans, the zoo announced in a release issued Friday. The Louisville Zoo is awaiting confirmatory results of the other two male snow leopards – Kimti and Meru. All three cats are doing well with very mild symptoms. The zoo said it continues to monitor their health closely and expects all three cats to recover. No other animals are showing symptoms at this time. The three snow leopards began exhibiting minor respiratory symptoms, including an occasional dry cough or wheeze, within the last two weeks. It is suspected that NeeCee acquired the infection from an asymptomatic staff member, despite precautions by the Zoo.“Fortunately, based on clinical cases in large cats at other zoos in the country to this point, SARS-CoV-2 infection does not appear to be life-threatening,” said Dr. Zoli Gyimesi, the zoo's senior staff veterinarian. “We will be closely monitoring the snow leopards for ongoing symptoms and resampling them to identify when they have cleared the infection.”In April 2020, four tigers and three lions were confirmed positive at the Bronx Zoo in New York. An additional three tigers at an AZA zoo in Tennessee were confirmed to be infected this fall. Just last week, the Barcelona Zoo announced four lions tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. In all cases, the animals recovered and are doing well.This story originally reported on LEX18.com. 1522
