We often have a love-and-hate relationship with our siblings, especially if one is more favored by our parents. However, what if your particular sibling is inflicted with a condition or a certain kind of illness?
What would you do?
Newsner reported a case of two siblings who have to be apart from each other because one of them has Down Syndrome.
According to Web MD, Down Syndrome is one of the most common genetic birth defects. Children who are born with this condition are usually mentally challenged and therefore, have to be properly guided and observed at all times.
The website cited that a certain Tom Doerr moved from his family house in Chester, United Kingdom and traveled to the United States in order to start a new life for himself in 2016.
He was separated from his younger brother Ollie, who has Down Syndrome. Tom stayed on the other side of the Atlantic and was not able to see Ollie for a while.
However, the young boy with special needs got the surprise of his life when on Christmas of 2016, a delivery van showed up in front of their house and handed out an impossibly huge package for Ollie.
Initially, he was confused as to why he would receive such a package because he didn’t remember ordering anything. His mother encouraged him to just open the package right outside their lawn since it was so big.
See what the package contains below:
Amazing! What do you think? If you were in Ollie’s shoes, how would you react?
