Watch the full interview Wednesday, only on Good Morning America.

After losing his ability to speak due to ALS, Terry became the third patient to receive Elon Musk’s Neuralink brain implant. In an emotional moment, the technology translated his thoughts into words, allowing him to tell his wife, “I love you.”

Absolutely. I went deep dive on this. There are lots of angles out there, you can stopwatch the play and all sorts of things. There are explanations on why the NBC broadcast slowly diverts from the pregame "sync." I went into it believing Western Michigan got screwed but after reviewing it all and talking to experts, there was time left. There just was. Michigan deserved the extra play. The replay protocols were not followed - which is what the MAC protested and the NCAA is saying - but in real life, in the actual stadium, under the actual clock, Michigan won. Believe whatever you want, doesn't matter to me. In the end this is a game that is always imprecise - spotting the ball, the clock, etc - so expecting it to be precise at the end might be too much. But the facts are the facts here.

You’re so full of shit… this is the credible evidence you’re staking your reporting on? A video from over 100 yards away? And even clearly at that, the DB hasn’t touched the ball yet? Get some real sources/feeds instead of twitter blowhards.

If you exclude 2021 Michigan, 2022 Michigan, 2023 Michigan and 2024 Michigan, is this the worst loss of Ryan Day’s career? Blowing a 20-pt 4th quarter lead is up there with blowing a 50-pt spread.

Someone just told me - IF YOU’RE ANXIOUS ABOUT SOMETHING - You can break the cycle by: - Think about the worst outcome - Think about the best outcome And then… - Think about the most likely outcome #Decatastrophizing 🤔

You are not alone. If you are struggling help is available 24/7. Call or text the lifeline at 988. No need to put yourself or others in harms way. The sincerity and language used by the officer is so supportive.
This video of a rescue last night on the Brooklyn Bridge will take your breath away. High above the East River, NYPD ESU officers climbed onto the Brooklyn Bridge to reach a woman in crisis who was threatening to jump. For nearly an hour, they stayed with her, spoke with her, and waited for the moment they could safely pull her back from the edge. The care, courage, and compassion these officers showed was just extraordinary. May God bless them.

Great news: The American doctor, Peter Stafford, who contracted Ebola virus in Democratic Republic of Congo and was treated at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin - was discharged from medical care today after testing negative several times. The German hospital shared in a statement. His wife, also a doctor, and their four kids also released from quarantine. They were exposed but did not get Ebola. Dr. Stanford shared in a statement: "I received first-class care, including experimental therapies currently being trialed for this type of virus. Words cannot adequately express my gratitude. Thank you to everyone who made this possible. Our thoughts remain with the people in the Congo who do not have access to such care.”
