It-s wonderful that this brother sister duo have such a positive attitude and outlook. We all could learn from them, as it isn-t always easy to take the negative and put a positive twist on it

His eyes! Very striking. His sister-s eyes are beautiful too. You can tell they are young at heart, even if their condition wants to say otherwise.
