      NOTE: you can see the hand of the child moving (blurry) the child is alive, just by the looks of it, very sick.

      Dang,with how sick the child looks this looks like a deathbed photo like they knew she might not have long to live?!

    3. Jesus Christ, this is *haunting*. The child looks weary, pained, and skeletal. The mother looks deeply upset and sad. Damn.

      These two would’ve been long gone at this point anyway, but this photo still breaks my heart.
