Gabriel.

Back at the children’s home, Gabriel was quite the fighter.
He and his twin sister had been found beside a river.
He made it, but tragically his sister didn’t.

Such a contrast of emotions in this image and story. We rejoice the survival of a child while we mourn the loss of his sister. Thanks for sharing, Phoebe.
