Meeting Another Tay Sachs Cutie

Please meet BEAUTIFUL Rachaeli!
Rachaeli Fier lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her parents Nicole & Eric and her three older brothers. She was born on October 25, 2002.
Here is a pic of her with her mommy, Nicole.

After 3 boys, a daughter was a wonderful gift.
She was named in English, Eliana Rachael.
In Hebrew it is Chana (Hannah) Rachael.
Her brothers immediately nicknamed her Rachaeli!
Rachaeli is loved by her brothers:

Yoni, his full name is Yonatan Yedidya. Yonatan is Hebrew for “Gift of God”; Yedidya means “friend of God”. Everyone just calls him “Yoni” He is the oldest kid in the family born in 1995,
7 1/2 years before his baby sister.

Shui is the second kid in this family. He was born in 1997, 5 ½ years before his baby sister.
His real name is Joshua, but everyone calls him “Shui”.

Ari, the youngest boy and third kid, was born in 2000, 2 years before his baby sister.


Here she is with her Daddy Eric!
