Swipe ⬅️ What was supposed to be a night of celebrations quickly turned into a nightmare for a northern Michigan man as he lay helpless in the snow for nearly 20 hours on New Year’s Eve. About an hour before the big countdown, Bob ran out of his house in pajamas and slippers to grab another log for his fireplace when he slipped and fell, breaking his neck. He tried to scream for help, but the only one who heard his cry was his Golden Retriever, Kelsey. The dog prevented Bob from falling victim to hypothermia by lying on top of him and licking his face and hands to keep him awake. Eventually, he lost consciousness. But the silence didn’t stop Kelsey from barking, and eventually the dog’s efforts paid off. The next day, Bob’s neighbor found him and called 911. Chaim Colen, a neurosurgeon at McLaren Northern Michigan, immediately performed spinal decompression surgery on Bob, which was a complete success.
