Vencer Cotton may not have his sight, but he does have his skills and tool to help him get though everyday life. “I started using a cane at 5 and started using braille a couple years later,” Cotton says. Now, thanks to technology, Cotton gets even more help, especially when it comes to shopping. Cotton uses the video call-based service called Be My Eyes, which uses a volunteer helper on the other end, to assist him in shopping for specific items. The help on the other end of the line helps Cotton navigate stores to find the items he needs. The app hosts a network of over a million volunteers in 150 countries. It’s used by more than 100,000 people living with blindness or visual impairment. It's free to sign up to be a helper, and it’s free for people, like Cotton, to use if they need visual help. “They're very helpful for identifying packages or items in your cabinet or expiration dates on perishables in your refrigerator,” Cotton says. Cotton uses the app at least twice a week to help him while he's on the go. Rather than asking someone at the store for help, Cotton says this makes him feel more independent. It also helps him connect with people in a beneficial way for all. “Technology can in fact bring us closer together, rather than making us be farther apart,” he says.There are other paid versions of apps with similar capabilities, but Be My Eyes is free! Volunteers are needed. If interested in signing up, visit 1456

A 14-year-old girl was killed and four others injured when falling rocks hit their car at the Glacier National Park in Montana.The rocks hit the top of the car Monday night and shattered the rear windshield. In addition to killing the girl, rocks also injured her parents and two other children in the vehicle, the park said in a statement.It estimated the rocks were between fist-sized and 12 inches in diameter along with enough debris from the rockfall to fill the bed of a pickup truck. The incident happened near the East Tunnel on the popular and mountainous Going-to-the-Sun Road.An ambulance that responded could not airlift the girl because of her unstable condition, the park said.Flight paramedics traveled with her using ground ambulance to Kalispell, Montana. She died while being transported to a local hospital, the park said."The two adults suffered significant bruises and were transported to area hospitals. The two other children in the vehicle had minor injuries and also went by ambulance to the hospital," the park said.The victims were visiting from Utah, and authorities will release their names once family notifications are complete. Going-to-the-Sun Road was closed briefly Monday night while crew cleared the rocks and a tow truck removed the vehicle.The last fatal injury from rockfall on the Going-to-the-Sun Road was in 1996 when a vehicle was struck, according to the park. 1417

When Jill Promoli lost her 2-year-old son, Jude, to the flu, she posted about it on her Facebook page. Then, she was attacked by anti-vaxxers. "I got a lot of people accusing me of actually murdering Jude and using flu as an excuse to cover up my crime,” Promoli says. Anti-vaxxers said she'd caused her son's death by giving him a flu shot. Some even going so far as to say she'd intentionally killed her son. "The first time it made me feel really sick,” she recalls. “The idea that somebody could even suggest that I would do something that would hurt any of them." She's not the only one under attack. At a recent CDC meeting, the organization brought in extra security, and doctors who say vaccines save lives have received death threats. On Facebook, anti-vaxxers called for Dr. Richard Pan, a pediatrician and California state senator, to be shot. One wrote, "I hope they stone you to death." That's why one mom, Erin Costello, uses a fake Facebook account to spy on dozens of anti-vaccination groups. She says when a child dies, that’s when anti-vaxxers come together to harass people online. "They ask the other group members, 'Come on. Let's go hit them with our truth, with our information. Let's go educate them.' Basically, let's go harass them," she says.When Costello sees comments like that, she warns other parents. But Larry Cook, who leads the anti-vaccine movement, says of the millions of comments on his Facebook group each month, those about parents who lose children after being vaccinated are a small number. Cook says anti-vaxxers get harassed by pro-vaxxers. As for Promoli, she says she's fighting back against the harassment following her son’s death. She’s launching a campaign to encourage people to get flu shots and remains determined not to let the anti-vaxxers stop her."I don't want anyone to ever lose their child again," Promoli says. 1886
