It is amazing to me that we are still reading stories like this, so many years later

Best friends separated in the Holocaust just reunited. They were ‘laughing like they were still 9 years old,’ family said.

That is so cool. Thanks for sharing it!

The article doesn't say it, but the reason they were reunited isn't random chance - they both kept sharing about their history and their search for many years, and then a historian put their stories together. I'm so glad their determination and love was finally rewarded with renewed connection!

You must have missed that paragraph, but that's in there.

Yes, that information is there. It's the "string of fated flukes" framing that I'm objecting to.

Ah, I see.
