Comments:

Sara (left) is Claudia's (right) natural birth mother. This wonderful relationship is a testament to the tolerance we are capable of. It shows that blood bonds transcend any differences between us. This deep level of love and understanding is a lesson to all Australians that racism is bred by ignorance.
