As two sisters watched the news unfold of the school shooting in Texas, they realized that their cousin was in the school. She was shot, but survived. Then they discovered that three distant cousins were killed.
Two sisters and their friends, wearing the Uvalde school colors, honor four of the 21 lives lost in Robb Elementary School.The sisters asked that their last names be omitted to protect their family members' privacy. The sisters first heard about the school shooting from their mother, when relatives called and told her to turn on the news. At first they assumed it was the high school and started texting their teenage relatives in Uvalde.The pair, along with their two friends, Evette, 20, and Carla, 19, drove from San Antonio to Uvalde to mourn with each other, with their families, and with the community — and the world — as a whole.“We all have little brothers, we all have little sisters.
That the sisters are related to or know so many who have been impacted by the shooting is a reminder of how close-knit the Uvalde community of around 16,000 truly is. "Having our cousins say that they saw the shooting and they witnessed it, that hits us hard too," Alexandria said."Now they're going to have to live with what they saw and they're going to be scared to go back to school. It won't matter what school they go to they're going to have to live with that fear.""We live with that fear in our heart knowing that a shooting can happen anywhere," Alexandria said.
