ATLANTA -- Sam Porterfield is a reunion expert.

In 22 years at Northside Hospital, he has cared for thousands of sick and premature babies. He knows how to fix them and get them back to their parents.

One night, 18 years ago, Sam was summoned to an emergency delivery.

Claudette Enners remembered, "My uterus ruptured and so basically Kevin was dead when they took him out during an emergency c-section."

Sam revived Kevin Enners, twice. He saved his life.

Claudette said, "They anticipated that he was without oxygen for eight to ten minutes." The ordeal left Kevin with cerebral palsy.

The diagnosis was remarkable in that it didn't interfere with the life Claudette and Rich Enners wanted for their son.

"He doesn't care what people think," Rich said. "If he wants to do something, he'll do it. The word can't, I've never heard him say 'I can't do that because of this.'"

ATLANTA -- Hail dumped onto the metro area, late Thursday night. 

Some people said the hail collected, on the ground, like snow. Only a couple of residents, of the area, sustained damage but the ones who did --- have to rebuild from the ground up. 

In Marietta, a home was destroyed by two oak trees --- one landing on the deck and the other through the master bedroom. 

Seven-year-old Mattie Hill heard the tree crack and ran for the door --- ultimately, the tree fell on Mattie's pillow, the one she had been laying on almost a minute prior. 

"She heard the crack and instincts and the man upstairs was telling her to go," Jake Hill. 

The storm brought, both, fire and ice. Michael Bruce's neighbor's home is a complete lost due to a fire sparked by lightening. Bruce is being hailed as a hero in the neighborhood -- he rescued his neighbor from the burning home. 

ATLANTA -- The difference between a regular eclipse and this one is the fact that only 94 percent of the sun will be covered up, leaving a ring of fire to be seen by millions of people.
