This is a picture from an article called "The Rescuing Hug".
The article details the first week of life of a set of twins,
Kyrie (red dot) and Brielle (yellow dot).

Apparently, each were in their respective incubators, and one was not expected to live.  A hospital nurse fought against the hospital rules and placed the babies in one incubator.  When they were placed together, the healthier of the two threw an arm over her sister in an endearing embrace.  The smaller baby's heart rate stabilized and her temperature rose to normal.  They both survived, and are thriving, in fact, the two girls went home to share a crib, and still snuggle.  The twins are happy kindergartners now.  The hospital changed their policy after they saw the effect of putting the two girls together, and now they bed multiples together.

Let us not forget to embrace those whom we love
and never underestimate the power of a hug!

Hug someone today !
