SUMMARY: Earlier this month, investigator Bill Spencer shared the story of a young couple struggling to care for their sick baby boy, Alistair, who suffers from a life-threatening disease. The family’s car broke down months ago, jeopardizing their ability to attend crucial medical appointments. Spencer’s team stepped in, and Christian Brothers Automotive in Cypress offered to fix the car for free. The repairs, worth over $6,000, addressed serious issues like carbon monoxide leakage and engine problems. Now, with a fully refurbished car, the family can focus entirely on Alistair’s medical needs and therapies.

Sitting on the couch with her one-and-a-half-year-old, baby boy, Alistair, Tesa Sveter spreads coconut butter all over his body to try and comfort him.
You see, little Alistair was born with a life-threatening condition called Neurocutaneous Melanosis.
It’s an affliction which causes huge growths or moles to grow all over the face, head and body, along with tufts of hair that grow everywhere.
It’s a condition that kills most children who are born with it by the time they are 4 years old, so Tesa must care for her son 24 hours a day to help him with eating and moving and walking and crawling.

SUMMARY: Hurricane Barrel, currently a Category 3 storm, is impacting the Cayman Islands, where hurricane warnings are in place. It affected Jamaica previously and weakened due to wind shear. The National Hurricane Center’s forecast remains largely unchanged, predicting a landfall in far south Texas. Barrel is expected to weaken to a Category 2 hurricane as it moves across the Yucatan Peninsula and into a tropical storm over the southern Gulf. Warm Gulf waters might strengthen it back to a Category 1 hurricane before a possible early week landfall. Future paths include potential impacts on North Texas, with the heaviest rains predicted for central and far south Texas.

New models show that Hurricane Beryl is likely to make landfall in Texas next week. FOX 4 meteorologist Kylie Capps takes a look at the storm’s path and the possible impact it could have on North Texas.
