I discovered this story through a tweet from @GuyKawasaki last night.
The babies pictured are twins born prematurely. A nurse who was struggling to help the weaker of the two went against bospital protocol and put the two babies together in the same incubator. Almost immediately, the stronger of the two put an arm around her sister which just as immediately seemed to help stabilize her heart rate and helped her calm down. Her hug helped rescue her sister.
Who should we hug today?
