Siblings should be adopted together. Always
Different times.
@@OP-1000 doesn’t matter. They should have been adopted TOGETHER. You never separate siblings. That’s never ok to do. If there’s 2 or more siblings either you adopt them all or you don’t adopt any, period.
Back in the 80s my younger sister was adopted by a family who only wanted a girl, not a boy. Yet another family torn apart.
When my grandmother was adopting children, she found out the girl she was about to adopt was one of 5 orphaned children. She said to the agency that she’d take all or none of them but would not separate the children. I don’t know why but she said they wouldn’t allow her to adopt them all.
@@CP-oj5sm Adoption could be horrific back then. Babies snatched out of unwed mothers' arms, siblings torn apart. It is a cruelty that I hope we are doing away with.
I think there should be some record when siblings are separated that they can go directly to to find their siblings once they are over 18. It’s terrible these two lost so many years together, but I am so happy for them to have found each other finally.
It should be illegal to separate biological siblings.
I think things like that are done now. It was different back then - not as easy to track people down.
@@SevCaswell I agree, but then I thought the adoption of them could be more difficult.
You do all remember there was a war there.
@@shainazion4073 yes. What's your point?
The fact they both lived 80 years to meet again...strong will and genes in them.
I'm so glad they've gotten the chance to be together again-you can just hear in both that first call and in the clips of them together how much they love each other. Making the most of the time they have left-I hope they have as many years as possible. They both must be in their 90s just about, but I hope they can make up for some of that lost time at least.
And what pure love that kept them looking for each other!! In those 70 years , world has gone topsy turvy but he still kept looking for her. Amazingly heartwarming ❤
A big brother never giving up. Good man.
❤
😘😘😘
Never separate children what a horrible way to ruin people
especially with siblings
Our local pet shelters insist bonded animals be adopted together!
This whole story had me in tears. How awful as children to go through that. Then live your life not knowing where the other part of all you have left is. I'm very happy they got to reconnect. I love that they have daily phone calls
I totally agree I watched this with tears in my eyes. I’m glad there was a happy ending for them.
I can't breathe now...I'm glad they found each other
This made me cry. I sure know that their father's last thought was about them. I love my siblings, we've been through hell and back. My family means the world to me.
It was very emotional for me too. I am the eldest of 9 siblings. In the span of 18 months I lost 3 brothers ( healthy and strong 💪) from complications related to Covid and my dad died ( of a broken heart) shortly after burying his 3rd son , he was 95 years old and was healthy and strong . We ( as a family) always say “I love you “ to each other at the end of the day 😊. You never know when it’s going to be the last time you get to say it.
@@deborahkelly1489i am so sorry for your loss i am thinking of your loved ones🤍
Couldn’t stop crying too. Tear of joy, Thank you to those who made this reunion possible.
Hello kate, how are you doing?
Me too
I'm so moved by their shared memories of serving time together in an orphanage, a boy of 11 doing his upmost to step into the protective role, ensuring his little 8 year old sister felt safe and cared for, then callously separated by the system, compounding the loss of their mother and then their father, leaving them with deep wounds they'd carry for decades, and now in the final frail days of their lives, they're suddenly those two children once more, hand in hand, sitting by the ocean.
Somewhat reminds me of the Irish tale of the Children of Lir. Cursed as children to be swans for centuries they finally reunite as frail old people just before dying.
You aught to write the official rebuttal for this story - well said!
Beautifully written.
Well said. You're an amazing writer
@@damionkeeling3103 Yes, very apt reference.
I’m so happy for them I can’t stop bawling my eyes out. Siblings should NEVER be separated by adoption! Never! So glad they both lived to find each other again. What a joy to see them together again.
I would never adopt one sibling and not the other ❤they should do everything to not do this to children !!!
So glad they found each other!!
True
Identical twin myself and history shows twins and sibling split adoption happened. Absolutely disgusting disrespectful and unfeeling!! These stories still upset and shock me!! Better world 👃 ❤
My neighbor's brother and sister-in-law had two kids biologically, then adopted 3 siblings from a poor hispanic family. They are one giant happy family now.
I don't think any of us can truly appreciate the trauma and heartache people went through in both world wars. So very glad these two found each other. ❤
Very true. All these years later, and people are still suffering from that conflict.
Who separated them???
They are so comfortable in each others company after 3/4 quarters of a century apart, so sad it took so long.
It’s a shame it wasn’t sooner
I'm crying. They went through the trauma of losing their mum and dad together. They were all they had, and they were separated. I'm so glad they have each other now. ❤
Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
The pain they went through was terrible. Splitting up siblings is cruel
I sobbed through this whole thing. I'm so glad they found each other.
How cruel!! Seperating 2 siblings that had no other family 😢. I'm so happy they did reunite.
My goodness. I had a difficult time holding back my tears. These two are so loving an sweet.
same here i started to cry as soon as they started talking what they had gone through
I hope they will have plenty of years to show each other all the love for each other
This is so beautiful. War never fixes anything it just tears people apart. Thankfully they have reunited and spend time together.
It’s true but unfortunate, war never changes
WWII fixed something. It removed murderous tyrants. Grow up.
One of the most emotional reunions ever!!!!!
This made me cry. My sister passed a few months ago and I envisioned a future friendship with her like this pair shares now... enjoying each other's company, chatting over tea, sharing a laugh... a hug... what I would give to hug her again. I miss you Jen.
she's with ya
I just lost my brother, I know how you feel. I'm sorry and I hope you and your family is doing ok
So HAPPY these two siblings found each other after being separated.
Their love for each other, their words spoken, their long awaited reunion, and the time gone forever, made me cry like a baby. God bless you both, you both were destined to meet one day.
What a tear-jerker! I’m so happy for them!
Such a shame the family didn’t adopt both children. I cried the entire documentary, such a sad story, but heartwarming they United 😢😢😢❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗
I don’t think I have ever cried so much at a RUclips video. “Hello my darling brother, Hello my darling sister!” 😭 I know other people have said it but it’s true, war achieves nothing, it only rips families apart while those in charge sit in their safe places unhurt. May God bless them with a rich time together.
wasn't it all part of Gods plan though
@@AlainnCorcaighNope ... Its man's plan
I’m in tears!?! I can’t imagine a world without my big brother! They’ve missed so much of each other’s lives. I pray for healing and happiness for these amazing siblings. He loves his sister so much.
I am here because I just love to cry with strangers.. Love these two.
I’m sobbing right now I’m so glad they found each other
*_Sadly, not all family members experience such love for each other._*
But this is not that story. This is a story about a small miracle.
@Puck We can be disappointed trying to contact long lost relatives.
As an adopted 53 year old this really hits home😭 I'm so happy for them.
God bless them both, I couldn’t stop crying 😢
me too😭😭😭😭😭😭
Adoptions where siblings are involved need to be rethought...
Yes try to keep them together
This was 80 years ago. They don’t separate siblings anymore.
@@bettygrable6440 god I hope so, so sad what happens/happened to twins
I'm sending this link to my own darling brother (87) from his only sister, me (79). We are blessed to never have not known where one another was. So happy these two lovely brother and sister found each other at long last.
I was doing okay up until listening to their first phone call and he said “I’m okay now, I’ve been looking for you for 70 years”. burst into tears after that
This is the most beautiful reunion I have ever seen. God bless these two.✌️🫶
From the depths of the valley of sadness, up to the peak of the mountain of happiness, this is their story.
A friend of mine had an adopted sister. When they learned that she had a baby sister, their friends adopted her. They didn't grow up in the same family, but they went to the same schools and always knew they were sisters. My friend called the baby sister, "my sis's sis"
That's nice that they see each other a lot
Such a heartwarming story of two siblings never losing hope. So glad they found each other.
Hello Rosa
How are you doing today?
I can't imagine my life without my sisters. These poor kids, they should never have been separated in the first place! I'm so glad that they managed to find each other again.
This is why I appreciate people who decide to adopt siblings for the sake of keeping together. They may have only wanted one child, but some end up with two, event 5 to 6 kids because they are siblings. So important for adoption systems to make sure they keep them together.
This made me cry so much. I'm so glad they found eachother.
He has nothing to apologize for. He's a good brother, and she's a good sister. He did nothing wrong. They were just kids. 2:08
For anyones whose loved their brother and sister this way…we understand! Brought me to tears. Deepest love ever.
Brought tears to my eyes. So glad they found each other again. So sad for the time they lost.
😭 me during this story...I'm so sorry they were separated for so long but so grateful they found one another before they leave this 🌎. How beautiful to have a sibling who loves you the way these two care and love one another ❤️
I’m so happy for them that they found each other. God bless them.
Hello Susan
How are you doing today?
What a heartbreaking lovely story 😭I can’t imagine their closeness and to be ripped apart for 70 YEARS! I am so happy they found each other!
This is so sweet!! I’m so glad they were finally reunited!❤
OMG! This beautiful story brought me to tears ! I can’t imagine being separated from my siblings for 80 years. God bless both of them! I hope they have many more years together. ❤
I had to watch this in segments because I couldn’t stop crying! I’m so glad they found each other!❤❤❤❤❤
the relationship siblings share is so unique. it can be beautiful or cruel, it can be life saving or it can cost you your life...i'm so grateful to have siblings that are amazing, easily my best friends in the world. i can't imagine the pain these two must've felt being separated for so long. and i'm so happy they were able to reunite.
I am so glad I found this story it made my heart sing what a bloody beautiful story , I hope they have many years together.
When they call each other darling brother and sister ❤️ 🥰🥹
Crying buckets! What a blessing for them, they now have each other again. I've got most of my brothers and the one sister alive yet we are all estranged and not talking to one another, all due to betrayal. Some people search for their siblings all their lives ready to love them, others throw away any love for a couple of coins...Heartbreaking.
Omg they are the sweetest I’m glad they’re back in each others lives
What a BEAUTIFUL story! I couldn't stop the tears of sadness and hurt for the time they missed out together, or the tears of joy that they found each other again. I am so extremely happy for them! I hope they have many years together to make some memories!
The brother has “super memories” at his age🧐. What a beautiful story😭😭😭😭😭
These stories always make me cry. It's wonderful they have reunited, but it just reinforces the pain of loneliness I've always felt as an only (adult) child. When the time comes and I am the only one left, I won't have anyone to reminisce with, someone to still call family, someone who I could turn to. There's always been a hole in my life for a sibling. Of course not all sibling relationships are positive, but to never know what it's like to have one has always been painful.
I am so sorry for you. May God fill that void. He can! ❤
Alex, you will always be important to someone. We are all each others brothers and sisters. Believe you me. We are all often much closer to unrelated friends than our siblings. ❤️❤️ Much love xxxx
Alex it's OK. You will get a sibling, a spiritual one when you ask for it from God.I got a sister after I desired to have one after a very very long time. We started as friends but as the relationship grew we became like sisters. So, keep trusting God who loves to give His children good things.
Terrific that they found each other..so happy for them.
My grandpa and his brother got to see each other after 50 years, both well into their 90s, due to one living in CA and the other in NC. They spent 2 weeks together and took professional pictures to remember. They both are gone now but they regularly talked on the phone until my grandpa passed at 98 y.o. and then his older brother passed a couple of years later at 101. To this day I tear up looking at the photos knowing how good it must've felt to see one another after so long.
What a bittersweet story. It’s sad that they were separated for so long but so beautiful that they were reunited and got to enjoy their final years on earth together. I hope they’re now spending eternity in each others company 💗
I am so happy they found each other. I wish them well and happy times.
What a beautiful story. I'm so happy they found each. It obviously means the world to them. Peace & Love
This was such a beautiful and emotional story, I’m so glad they found it each other and what a beautiful book and movie this would make. So happy for you both! And now both you families can be all together. This made me cry so much. The heartbreak and the joy.
No book or movie.
What an amazingly emotional story of true
love between siblings! The bond is so great that time has no limits of their love for one another! Their love is timeless!!!
Oh, these dear people, I hope they are still getting together for tea and walks. What agony it must have been during all those years to assume they were lost to each other forever. Bless them both!💕
This is such a heartbreaking story, but also heartwarming as well! So happy for them. They are both DARLINGS!!! Sending love, light, prayers & positive energy to Bill & Beryl from KY, USA🙏💗🙏💗🙏💗🙏
Heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time😢❤ God bless them❤❤❤❤❤
Oh my god, the FEELS!!!!!!! DNA databases have brought so many families back together, it's a beautiful thing. ❤️
I am usually not at a loss for words, but this touched me deeply. I am so happy for Beryl and Bill! ❤❤
😭😭😭😭 God Bless them. They’re so cute!!
Aw they are precious! I’m so glad they were reunited.
I'm 58 year old woman from UK 🇬🇧 not long finished work and tired. So glad I've just watched this stunningly beautiful video of 2 beautiful siblings. Very emotional had a little cry and weather good so go put washing out!! Thank you so much for sharing!!❤❤ Xxxx
Love these two. May they have many years having fun.
I watched it a second time! And tears are flowing again! So happy they found each other!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
Amazing reunion and that they're both still alive 😢❤ so happy they're together again.
I’m crying 🥺 “darling brother” “darling sister” i hope they have a happy and loving life for the rest of their years
The cruelty of seperating siblings is unimaginable.
I don't think I could stand being torn from my brothers. This story really got me and makes me appreciate what I've got.
Wow, this story was so sad, but with a happy ending. Just knowing how young siblings can love each other, makes this heart breaking. So happy that they managed to get reunited while they are still alive.
Brother like this is a gift. Lots of tears.
So sweet! Very happy for them to have found each other again.
Oh my, this is so touching. Heartbreakingly sad and joyfully beautiful all at the same time.
How lovely! I am so pleased for them to have found one another in their later years.
The power of love and longing for family is exemplified in their story! Terrible that they were orphaned and parted! Magnificent that after so long, they were reunited! God bless them both! 😊❤😊
Hello dear
How are you doing today?
This was so bittersweet to me. I rejoice that they reunited but I mourned the cruel decision of separating the two vulnerable, precious children, thus causing them to miss years of support, companionship, love, time and memories. Heart wrenching to say the least. I am so touched by their enduring love and devotion for one another and wish them both many more years, in health and happiness catching up for lost time. 💖
The adoption industry is so effed up. Thank goodness they are reunited.
That one will bring tears! You would have to be pretty hard not to get this one. We are attached through all the years and all the events. Love beats all. So glad for you both.
You are darling siblings. I am so glad that you found each other! What a treasure.
God bless them both, what a beautiful story and thank you for sharing
Beautiful. War changes people's life. Fortunately, thera are some happy encounters. Watching from Brazil, and feeling so moved by this story!❤ Thank you!
This is everything I hope my children are for each other. How touching. Praise God they found each other!
such a touching and lovely story
Thank God it wasn't too late and thank God for the people that had everything to do with piecing it all together and getting them reunited.
You can almost hear the angels rejoicing in heaven. ❤️🌈🥰🙌
Such a beautiful story but so sad for your separation. Many hugs to you both.
I don’t even know these people. I am half a world away in Toronto Canada. However I sit her crying my eyes out for all the lost years these children had growing up.
That old man has a kind face
Wow, such a heartbreaking yet heartwarming story.... So glad they found each other....
I have a brother I am profoundly close to. Tears of happiness and joy for Bill and Beryl. I’m so happy they found each other and have this special time together. ❤❤
Who else cried through this story?? Such a heartwarming story and I am so very glad they found each other! I pray they have many many years together to catch up on the lost ones.
