Moments ago I captured the Moon.
You can too, if you act real soon.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That sickle in the sky
We call waxing crescent.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Behold evening twilight.
Our Moon — luminescent.

This is known as one of medicine’s most incredible moments. In 1922, at the University of Toronto, scientists went to a hospital ward with children who were comatose and dying from diabetic ketoacidosis. Imagine a room full of parents sitting at the bedside waiting for the inevitable death of their child. The scientists went from bed to bed and injected the children with the new purified extract - insulin. As they began to inject the last comatose child, the first child injected began to awaken. One by one, all of the children awoke from their diabetic comas. A room of death and gloom, became a place of joy and hope. Thank You Dr. Banting and Dr. Best!
