New 'Baby Sister'.

My New Baby Sister, Sharon

Many years ago a young girl entered my life. More in my life than out.
She had similar challenges as myself. She is totally deaf.

Through time I showed her how to overcome her challenges and ‘move on’. She learned to lip read, I sign language.

As we grew up she was one of our bridesmaids at Dawn and my wedding.

Though her life took one course and ours another we still ‘stayed close’.

Late 2024 she asked me if she could be my ‘Baby Sister’.

My ‘new baby sister’ and me. Her husband looking on.

Thank you, gentlemen for the kind words.

Sharon has always been like a 'little sister' to me.
I am proud of what she has achieved in her life.
As mentioned, she is totally deaf yet is a Senior Nurse in a Leeds Hospital.

Asking to be my 'baby sister'? How could I ever refuse. She has never been anything else. :D

Bravo! To the both of you. Nice tie, BTW. I still appreciate the classy, traditional look.
