Teaching Sympathy: How Six Siblings Honored Their Late Friend
The best way to create a kinder, more compassionate world is by teaching our children the value of empathy. When we care for one another, everything else seems to fall into place.
This lesson was exemplified by six siblings from New York—two twins, triplets, and a 10-year-old—who turned their grief into a powerful act of kindness. After losing a close friend to cancer, the children were deeply affected. During his battle, their friend underwent chemotherapy, which caused him to lose his hair. Seeing his struggle left a lasting impact on the siblings.
When their friend passed away, they decided to honor his memory in a unique and meaningful way: by growing out their hair to donate to children fighting cancer, just like their late friend.
The siblings kept their plan a secret. Not even their mother knew why they insisted on skipping haircuts.
As their hair grew longer, however, they faced ridicule from classmates. The teasing became relentless, with peers calling them names and saying they looked like girls. But the siblings stayed strong. They didn’t let the hurtful comments deter them because they knew their mission was more important than what others thought.
After months of enduring mockery, the day finally arrived for their donation. Together, they cut and donated an astonishing 17 feet of hair to benefit those battling cancer.
Their story is a touching reminder of how small acts of love can leave a big impact. It’s inspiring to see such young children demonstrate such selflessness and care for others.

You Won’t Believe How the ‘Trueblue Twins’ Are Taking Instagram by Storm!
Even though twins aren’t that rare, people are always intrigued by how two people can look so alike.
I’m fascinated by it too…
But Megan and Morgan didn’t just catch people’s attention because they looked alike. When they were four years old, their eyes were so clear they looked like crystal water. Once their photos were shared online, they quickly went viral.
Megan and Morgan Boyd, known as the “Trueblue Twins,” became famous when they were just four years old. Their mom shared photos of them on Instagram, and people around the world fell in love with their unique look.
While most parents enjoy showing off their kids’ pictures, these twins caught global attention. Now, they have over 153,000 followers on Instagram.
It’s easy to see why, isn’t it?
The girls were born on June 6, 2011.
Their mom, Stephanie, came up with the nickname “Trueblue Twins” because of their special blue eyes.
If you want to tell Megan and Morgan apart, just look at their eyes—they’re the key to distinguishing them.
It’s only Megan who has two blue eyes. Morgan’s right eye is not blue, but dark brown and thus bears a completely different look.
This is how the girls look today at nine years old.
Many twins often wear matching outfits, and the Trueblue Twins are no exception.
Their mom, Stephanie, loves shopping for clothes for her daughters and keeping their wardrobes current.
She thinks it’s important for her twin daughters to look and feel great.
Many people are amazed by the girls’ rare blue eye color.
Some folks might think African-American adults with blue eyes are wearing colored contacts, but it’s possible to be born with a rare gene that gives blue eyes.
Stephanie, the Trueblue Twins’ mom, also has blue eyes, and she says she doesn’t wear colored contacts.
Everything indicates that these lovely sisters will grow up to be beautiful women. Feel free to share this story if you believe the same.
