An 8-year-old girl, Roxy Getter, has become the youngest girl to conquer Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. She achieved this with her dad Bobby and mom Sarah, including her 10-year-old brother Ben. Although she and her brother had a history of heart issues, they were cleared by a cardiologist before the trip. And even thought the entire trip was trying, Sarah said what they gained as a family could not have been replicated, and is especially a great lesson for the kids -to always keep going even when things get hard.

Every two weeks for the past 34 years, 58-year-old postman Marcus Perez of Texas, spends two hours donating blood at the South Texas Blood and Tissue Center. He donates platelets, which is a blood component that allows him to donate more often than if he were to donate whole blood or double red blood cells. He is also the fourth person in South Texas to pass the 100-gallon mark, saving thousands of lives in the process. Perez who was born a premature baby and required a blood transfusion, has been returning the favor over and over again.
