No matter how many lives are destroyed, it just takes one needless loss to wound a family forever

[Ali Al Makhzomy @makhzomy]

Mohammed, my older brother got disappeared.
He got kidnapped, we don’t know who took him but they asked for ransom.
We paid - but he never came back!
15 years now & my mom still believes he is a live, we all hope he is.
15 years Mohammed is living at our hearts.
