Boy Who Won't Leave His Grandma's Side Gets The Sweetest Surprise Party

The staff at hospitals frequently provide comfort and support in the hardest times in families' lives. And sometimes, they truly go above and beyond.

For the Johnson family, nurses made sure that one young family member's birthday wouldn't be forgotten while he was spending so much time at the hospital. Martez Johnson, who was about to turn seven, had been by his grandmother's side non-stop as she underwent cancer treatment. And the hospital staff noticed. So they planned a Spiderman-themed party, but kept it very quiet until the big day arrived.

After walking into his surprise party, "I didn't know WHAT was happening!" Martez remembers.

Complete with presents, a Spiderman cake, and even a living, breathing Spiderman, Martez's birthday had everything a newly-seven-year-old could want.

After the celebration, Sharon, Martez's grandmother, reflected on her grandson's amazing commitment to her.

"This was a very special day," she said, "and Martez deserves everything he got today."

Sharon has spent lots of time at the hospital where the birthday party took place, but she is determined to get out of there as soon as possible.

According to Sharon: "I'm going to beat the cancer, because I cannot leave my baby."

Love Yourself: The Naked Photoshoot

Morgan Cuffie, wearing only a robe, stands in front of the camera. She is in a studio with Dr. Stacy Berman, the creator of the 'Love Yourself: The Naked Photoshoot' program, because she had spontaneously agreed to go for it and pose. Now, a million thoughts are running through her head. "You feel this trepidation…and… like…wait…should I be doing this?" she recalled. "There's definitely a point where you forget you're naked. You have complete awareness and no awareness at all. You know that you are naked but you just don't care."

WWII Vet Runs Cross Country to Save His D-Day Ship

Ernie Andrus, now in his 90's, is running cross-country to raise money in order to put the LST 325, the ship he served on in the Navy during WWII, back on the beach in Normandy where it supported the D-Day invasion on June 6, 1944.

This LST 325 is the only LST ship left (out of 1,051 made) that has been fully restored and still operational. Plans were initially made for a D-Day memorial service in 2014 for the ship, but it was canceled because of a shortage of finances. This inspired Ernie to start a project called, Coast2Coast Runs to raise money to honor his old ship.
