When Morgan Freeman escorted Margot Robbie on stage at the 2023 Oscars, his left arm caught the attention of many. In fact, the 85-year-old actor wore an elbow-length satin black glove, which raised many concerns. And the reason behind it goes back to a heartbreaking event that transformed Freeman’s life 15 years ago.
Back in 2008, the Shawshank Redemption star was injured in a serious car accident that left him with a paralyzed left hand.
After the crash, Freeman had to undergo a 4-hour surgery in order to deal with his broken left shoulder, arm, and elbow.
A couple of years after the unfortunate event, the acclaimed actor opened up about his struggle, saying ’’I suffered nerve damage, and it hasn’t gotten better, I can’t move it.’’
He added, ’’If you don’t move your hand, it will swell up. Do you know you move your hand about a million times a day?’’
And even though doctors had reassured him that his hand would get better by 2011, this unfortunately didn’t happen to be the case.
Freeman ended up with permanent nerve damage and is still unable to wiggle his fingers.
And it seems that even 15 years later, the Oscar-winning actor is still dealing with the consequences of his accident, as we saw him wearing a glove during the ceremony.
According to experts, the compression glove works by lightly squeezing the veins in one’s hand to support blood circulation and can even help to manage tingling, pain, and swelling.

Jennifer Garner spots wheelchair-bound homeless man without shoes – her next move has people in tears
AuthorAvokadoReading3 minViews1.1k.Published by18.09.2024
When it seemed like there was nothing more that Jennifer Garner could do to win over her adoring fans worldwide, the well-known actress has suddenly done something so generous that it would soften even the hardest hearts.
The 51-year-old woman reportedly noticed a wheelchair-bound homeless man in a parking lot near Santa Monica Beach, California.
It doesn’t take a sharp mind to imagine how the majority of other A-list celebrities would have simply got in their car and gone away. Jennifer Garner is one somebody who is not like her.
We all adore Jennifer Garner because she is a good-hearted, grounded individual who has shown herself time and time again throughout her career.
Unlike most of her well-known counterparts, the Elektra star has a background that distinguishes her. She has accomplished incredible feats, such as rescuing her family’s farm to preserve her ancestry, striving to normalize baby bumps following childbirth, and demonstrating that developing wrinkles and folds as one ages is normal.

Just last week, Garner made headlines when she offered her 85-year-old father a ride in the vehicle he had driven when he was younger. Her name is now being mentioned once more, but this time it’s in reference to a kind deed that demonstrates her altruism and thoughtfulness.

According to reports, Garner observed a homeless man who was obviously in need of assistance earlier this week as she was at a parking lot on Santa Monica Beach.
The actress allegedly rolled down her car window to strike up a conversation with the hapless stranger. In addition to giving the man in the wheelchair a bag containing important items, she also noticed that he was not wearing any shoes.

Upon seeing this, Garner exited her vehicle, knelt by the man, and began dressing his feet with socks.
That was such a precious time.
Not content to stop there, the 13 Going on 30 actress attempted to offer the man her shoes after removing them.
Even though it was immediately apparent that the shoes were too small, Garner was not going to give up. She approached a paparazzi who was pursuing her in the area and requested for assistance.
She inquired, “What size feet do you have?” according to Page Six. “Can I get him your shoes? He is in need of shoes.
When the photographer inquired about the man’s size, Garner said that the homeless man was “ten and a half.”
“Well, I’m eleven years old! Do you want me to hand it to him? I’m able to deliver it to him,” the paparazzo said. To his credit, the photographer readily surrendered his shoes and refused to accept cash from Garner.
Of course, anyone who has followed Garner’s life and career closely won’t be surprised by her generosity. The actress has a long history of supporting those in need; more than ten years ago, she collaborated with Save the Children.
She previously told Southern Living, “Even though I did not grow up poor, I was surrounded by it and I always said I was a generation and a holler removed from rural poverty.”
“And I looked about, finding Save the Children in the process. Since they unquestionably set the standard for aiding children in rural America.
