KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Doctors and nurses are celebrating the recovery of a 23-year-old man who spent months in the hospital with a severe COVID-19 infection.In early April, Shakell Avery began feeling some of the COVID-19 symptoms. He went to the emergency room, and within 48 hours, he was on a ventilator fighting for his life due to the virus.After spending months in the hospital, he recovered, thanks to a convalescent plasma donor from New York and medical staff from Menorah Medical Center and Research Medical Center.It's been a celebration ever since his family heard the news their loved one was coming home."You definitely feel the love," Avery said. "It's like they were waiting for a celebrity to come to town."In late June, Shakell's doctors and nurses also celebrated his recovery."As hard as these days have been for some of us on the front line, it's worth it," said Dr. Marjorie Wongs with Menorah Medical Center said. "It makes it worth it."It's a different story from just a few months ago when Avery first contracted the virus.He shared how he felt right before he went to the hospital."I played sports, I played football, and I've never felt body aches like that," Avery said.Ultimately, it was the shortness of breath that worried him and his family."I mean just taking real deep breaths, and I still couldn't get it, and I thought, 'something's wrong,'" Avery said.He spent more than two months at Menorah Medical Center."He had life-threatening COVID-19," Wongs said. "He had severe pneumonia and required a ventilator. He had respiratory failure.""I remember before I went in and then when I woke up at the hospital," Avery said. "I don't really remember much at Menorah."Nurses and staff put up a tent for the family to say hello through the window and draw pictures because they couldn't physically be inside with him at the time.Avery's family said it was such a blessing to see the healthcare staff doing what they could to see their loved one, especially since Avery was in the hospital for a total of 79 days."Initially, you hear two weeks, three weeks," Shakell's mother, Wiletta Avery said. "When he was put on a ventilator, that was the hardest thing for me."Wiletta Avery then heard what no mother wants to hear."On April 11th, 4:30 in the morning, I'll never forget. They call and they're explaining to us that there's nothing they can do for him. He was maxed out on ventilation," Avery's mother said. "At that point they allowed me to go up and see him. And you know, they're not letting people into these hospitals, so when they say, 'You can come up,' you pretty much know what that means as if this will be my last time seeing him."While seeing him, she asked him to do just one thing."I just asked him, I need you to fight for me," she said. "I need you to fight."Wongs said there was a push to get convalescent plasma for Avery, but it wasn't an easy process."We contacted local blood banks; no one had any plasma available. We started looking for donors ourselves," Wongs said. "We even were contemplating flying a donor to another state, to where they could do the collection because we didn't even have collection capabilities in Kansas City until much later."Avery's family members also went to social media, pleading someone who recovered from COVID-19 to help save Shakell's life.They eventually found a donor."We ended up getting a donor from New York City. They were able to ship that plasma to us from the community blood center," Wongs said.They transfused those antibodies into Avery's body."It's experimental. This is the first patient that I had given convalescent plasma to. It's been reported out for other infections, but you know, this was our first patient," Wongs said.And it worked."To see he improved with it was just amazing for us," Wongs said. "I think it is definitely going to be one of the bridging therapies until we get to a vaccine or some sort of a cure. It is definitely one of the first things I go to now in patients that have severe, life-threatening COVID. I know we are using it much more than we were now."Menorah Medical Center and Research Medical Center worked together to make the transfusion happen."We are part of a national clinical trial," Wongs said. "I think we'll have some data that comes out later this summer as to the efficacy of convalescent plasma, but those of us on the ground that are using it, we think the data is going to be promising."Avery was only in his early 20s when he contracted the virus."It's definitely something I don't want anybody to go through," he said. "I just felt real depressed, robbed... like somebody just snatched you out your livelihood."While Avery recovered from the virus, it hasn't been a full overnight recovery."You don't just come home and everything is right back to normal. I had to learn how to walk again, I had to learn how to stand up straight on my own, with no support. I'm still having to learn how to properly get up steps," Avery said. "I used to be active, moving, and now it's just like, everything that you learn that's new, that's second nature to you, you have to relearn. So it's difficult. The fight really ain't over until it's 100 percent over."Avery has a message for young adults his age."When you decide to step outside, no mask, no sanitizer, no care in the world, think about whose father you're taking away from that kid. Think about whose mother you're taking away, whose grandparent, whose daughter, whose son," he said.He said he hopes more people take this virus seriously."Don't think you're invincible, I used to think that," Avery said. "Take this as serious as you would anything else. Take this as serious as life, cause it's that serious."Avery says financially, it's been hard too, as bills didn't stop while he was in the hospital for months and now continues to work on physical therapy.His family has set up a GoFundMe page to help with financial assistance.This story was originally published by Rae Daniel on KSHB in Kansas City. 6012

JAMUL, Calif. (KGTV) - A life’s work of rescuing horses burned to the ground in a matter of moments due to the Valley Fire burning east of San Diego.Patty Hyslop has overseen her horse rescue, Hyslop Horse Haven, for more than 20 years. She’s had Multiple Sclerosis for just about the same amount of time. The horses she saves have kept her moving through the pain.“If it weren’t for all the rest of the horses I don’t think she would still be here today,” said Shylynn Wellman, who has grown up at the ranch and now lives on the property.When Patty saw flames quickly approaching the ranch Saturday, she tried to get as many of her 24 horses out, but wasn’t able to save all of them.“The officers were like ‘you’re going to die if you don’t leave’ and I said I don’t care, I’m going to stay with my horses,” she said.Ultimately, she was the last one to leave the property and tried to save all of the horses, but had to leave a few behind.“I was so scared I was going to come home to burned and dead horses,” she said.Miraculously, when she returned, the horses she’d left had survived. Most of her ranch had not.In total, eight tack sheds filled with hundreds of thousands of dollars in horse supplies burned. The golf cart she uses to get around the large property, a huge help because of her MS, was a pile of melted metal. A majority of her property was blacked with ash as well. Despite the destruction, she still feels blessed.“I think it was a lot of luck. I think the horses, between that and God blessing us with horse angels, yeah,” she said.Right now, her horses are being housed at The Lucky Seven Ranch, and she’s hoping for some donations of horse supplies or sheds to get back on her feet. This GoFundMe has been set up to help the rescue ranch. Patty said her goal is to rebuild and continue inspiring people to save horses.“These kids come to me and say I want to grow up to be like you, I want to know as much as you do, I want to help horses, too. Oh it just fills my heart with joy,” she said. 2022

KILLEEN, Texas - Homicide detectives in Killeen say they have arrested a Fort Hood soldier in connection to the 2019 homicide of 32-year-old Chelsea Cheatham.According to a police news report, Grafton was taken into custody on Tuesday and charged with first-degree murder.Back on June 3, 2019, the Killeen Police Department responded to the Days Inn Hotel in Killeen, where they located the victim, 32-year-old Cheatham.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — President Donald Trump said Friday that Congress should provide all the money he wants for his promised U.S.-Mexico border wall, and he called illegal immigration a "threat to the well-being of every American community."Trump spoke hours after signing a short-term spending bill that covers key government departments for two more weeks, until Dec. 21, setting up a pre-Christmas showdown over the wall.The president wants the next spending package to include at least billion for the proposed wall. House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California rejected that a day earlier.At an appearance in Kansas City, Missouri, Trump accused Democrats of playing a political game, and said it was one that he ultimately would win."Congress must fully fund border security in the year-ending funding bill," Trump said as he helped close the 2018 Project Safe Neighborhoods law enforcement conference, which was sponsored by the Justice Department. "We have to get this done.""They're playing games," he said of Democrats. "They're playing political games. I actually think the politics of what they're doing is very bad for them. We're going to very soon find out. Maybe I'm not right. But usually I'm right."He also said money for a program that encourages federal, state and local authorities to collaborate on crime-fighting strategies was increased by million this year. The president said he will ask Congress for more money next year, but didn't say how much.Trump said his administration is giving law enforcement officials the resources they need to do their jobs. He said there are more than 200 new violent crime prosecutors nationwide and cities have access to 0 million worth of surplus military equipment.Introducing Trump was acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker. Trump announced before leaving Washington that he planned to nominate William Barr, who was attorney general under President George H.W. Bush, to again lead the Justice Department.The short-term spending bill avoided a partisan fight that had been expected this week as Washington. It was put on hold for ceremonies honoring Bush, who died Nov. 30.Trump is set to meet Tuesday at the White House with Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer of New York. Republicans control the House and Senate now, but Democrats will retake the majority in the House in January after midterm election victories last month.The president said the money he is demanding from Congress would fully pay for Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, attorneys, detention beds and the border wall, which he said is needed "more than ever."Trump has been agitated by multiple caravans of Central American migrants that have made their way to the U.S.-Mexico border. Several times he has threatened to seal off entry into the U.S. He claims many of the migrants are criminals or individuals unwanted in the U.S."Every American citizen is entitled to a safe community and a secure border," Trump said.___Associated Press writers Zeke Miller and Deb Riechmann in Washington contributed to this report. 3105

Just weeks after the fall term began, the California State University (CSU) system announced most classes across its 23 campuses would remain virtual throughout the spring term.In a letter to the campus community, Chancellor Timothy P. White notes health as one factor."We know far more about it [the pandemic] now than we did back in May. The virus continues to spread. There is no vaccine and there likely will not be one widely available any time soon. The summer increase in infections that was forecast in the spring happened as predicted, and it was larger than expected."White says the decision will also provide faculty and staff more time to better prepare for a virtual learning environment. “I wasn’t that surprised because the virus doesn’t look like it’s going away any time soon and the conditions for spring look like the conditions for fall, so from a public health perspective it makes sense," said Robert Kelchen, an associate professor of higher education at Seton Hall University in New Jersey.Kelchen has been tracking reopening plans across the country."The advantage of deciding early is colleges have a lot of time to prepare classes the way they want to be fully online and get it the best they can be," said Kelchen. But as colleges face massive financial hits while struggling to maintain enrollment, Kelchen says it’s unlikely other colleges will solidify spring plans this soon.“CSU isn’t as concerned about losing students to other colleges because there’s lots of demand to go to CSU; it’s not like some of the colleges, say in the northeast and Midwest, that are really concerned about having enough students. They’re in a position of strength," said Kelchen. Kelchen says small private colleges will struggle to survive the pandemic.“If the fall is any indication, there will be some colleges that will try to come back in person and then fail spectacularly right before or right at the beginning of the term," said Kelchen. A CSU spokesperson says dating back to March, they estimate about 0 million in forgone or returned revenue and unexpected costs across the 23 campuses. To mitigate some of these losses, as well as a 0 million reduction in state funding, some cost-cutting measures include a system-wide hiring chill and the elimination of non-essential travel.Kelchen says professors at his university have taken pay cuts. "For most colleges that will make it through, they’ll have to make cuts. They’ve already laid off quite a few people; they're going to cut academic programs that are either really small or really expensive to run, they’re going to not invest as much in facilities, students are going to have larger classes, they'll have fewer full-time faculty teaching them or part-time adjuncts. It will be a different experience because colleges are trying to save money, and students are also going to want to spend less money," said Kelchen. The news leaves some students with little hope for a normal college experience. “I really only got one good semester when everything was normal, and it was fantastic. I loved the school, I loved the professors, I loved the people," said Kelsey Santin, a transfer student at San Diego State University.After losing access to resources like the library and health center, Santin started a petition calling for reduced fees and tuition.“The quality is severely diminished. And that’s not to say the professors aren’t doing their best, it's just, you can’t expect to take the way that education has been worked for years and completely change it and just expect it to go without a hitch," said Santin. “We understand why the education needed to change, why the style had to change. But we don’t understand if the product changed, why wouldn’t the price change as well?"After losing her job during the pandemic, Santin decided to move home to the Bay Area to do her online classes. Her petition has nearly 5,000 signatures and counting. “I was hoping just to kind of get a coalition formed and maybe start a class action lawsuit in some way, shape or form, but I definitely want to get some momentum going before that,” said Santin. The law firm Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner says over 250 refund-related lawsuits are pending by university students across the country. But Christopher Schmidt, a class action lawyer at the firm, says it will be difficult for students to win these legal battles. He says students sign financial contracts, which likely did not promise in-person instruction. A CSU system spokesperson says all campuses continue to provide instruction and are working to help students earn a degree, and that thousands of faculty and staff members participated in professional development opportunities to better prepare to help students learn in a virtual environment. The spokesperson also notes that many of the services offered on campuses are now offered virtually, like access to health services or advisors. 4931
