Nurse Saves Severely Burned Baby in 1977—38 Years Later, a Facebook Photo Stops Her in Her Tracks

When Amanda Scarpinati was just three months old, a tragic accident changed her life forever. She rolled off a sofa onto a steam vaporizer, leaving her with severe burns that would require multiple reconstructive surgeries as she grew up.

In 1977, Amanda was taken to Albany Medical Center, where a compassionate nurse named Sue Berger cared for her. Despite Amanda’s painful injuries, Berger tenderly held the bandaged infant in her arms, offering comfort during a difficult time.

After being discharged, Amanda had no memory of that day but cherished the photos of herself as a baby cradled by Berger. Those images became a symbol of hope and kindness for Amanda, who endured years of bullying because of her scars. Determined to find the nurse who had shown her such compassion, Amanda turned to Facebook decades later, sharing her story and the treasured photos.

Thanks to the power of social media, Berger was quickly identified. The heartwarming reunion took place at the very hospital where their paths had first crossed, and the emotional moment was a testament to the lasting impact of small acts of kindness.

Watch the beautiful reunion between Amanda and Sue in the video below, and feel the love and gratitude that has spanned nearly four decades.

Unlike the rest of the engagement rings of the British royals, which are custom made, Diana’s 12-carat sapphire ring surrounded by 14 solitaire diamonds set in white gold was ordered from a Garrard jewelry collection catalog. Upon her passing, the ring went to Kate Middleton after William proposed to her with it.
