| | |  Potter winner gives prize to ill sister
The Sun have announced that Sian Brennan, 14, from Northern Ireland, is the winner of their ' Half-Blood Prince' Cub Reporter contest. They report that Sian has decided to give the prize to her ill twin sister, Zoe. Quote:
Sian, 14, said: "Zoe deserves this. I think she is a great sister and I would like to reward her for what she has done for me. She is always there for me.
"She's encouraged me. She has always been very positive."
Zoe said: "I'm really grateful to Sian. She has made my dream come true."
To win the contest Sian had to invent a creature that could exist in the Potter world. To read about her creation, go here.
A picture of the sisters together can be seen here.

awwwwwwww how sweet! I read in the article that they have lupis (both of them) i think it's mildly similar to an illness i have and it's HORRIBLE. I think lupis is worse, though...poor girls! They totally deserve this!  | |

It´s even sweeter, since she herself suffers from the same disease. Maybe the other sister would have given her price to her had she won.

I think that is so cool that they won, i do feel sorry for them, that disease sounds awful. It's so sweet what her sister did.

Maybe, if an exception is made. But the competition is for ONE reporter and if they break that rule for one person, they'd be obliged to do the same for everyone else.

That is the sweetest in the whole wide universe...wow. I wish I had a sister like that. Yes I have sister...but you're missing the point...anyways. I don't think they should both go, that kind of defeats the purpose, she's doing it out of the kindness of her heart, she's making a sacrifice so...kindness is its own reward. :: whispers :: But I think Mrs. Rowling should show up at their house the next day or something...  :: crying like a baby :: There is good in the world... :: cries some more ::

I was just about to ask the same ?. But do you think they would do it. Let her go with her sister I mean. If I were the people doing all this I would. She sounds like a wonderful little girl to give up her prize for her sister. I don't know if I could do the samething. I don't know if I could pick out of my 9 brothers and sister. *I am the oldest. I am 18. We have 4 sets of twins in the family*
