I decided to post this video… speechless. After 9 months, two brothers meet again. The feelings remain intact and love shows us that there is no quarantine that exceeds it.
Thanks to life for making me so happy !!!

The posting of Ariel Giardina (46) on his Facebook wall transcended the limits of that social network, and those of the province of San Juan, where he lives with his wife,
his son Vicente (4)
and another little boy of almost 2 years old.
Also those of Mendoza, where
Juan Cruz (12), his first-born
, and the fruit of his first marriage, resides with his mother.
Precisely, in Mendoza, on November 8, the exciting video was filmed that allowed the
relaxation
of the coronavirus quarantine.
Ariel, along with his children Juan Cruz and Vicente.
Ariel traveled with Vicente to his home province, so that the boy could be reunited with his older brother, after
8 months
in which they could not see each other due to the pandemic.
Vicente's anxiety to open the door and surprise Juan Cruz is touching.
The embrace of the boys and the cry of the older, moves.
And how that father breaks down, whose pulse trembles while filming the reunion of his children, is a symbol of what that eternal distance meant.
"I think the boys are the ones who have suffered the most in all this time, thank God we have the means to keep in touch but
nothing compared to that hug,
" Ariel confided in dialogue with the newspaper
Los Andes
.

Mendocino, Ariel has lived in San Juan with his wife and two children for 10 years.
"Eight months ago I hugged Juan Cruz and told him: '
I don't know when we're going to see each other again
.
'
Because the quarantine was coming, "he recalled.
And he explained that during the strict quarantine "it was impossible for me to cross again."
And he continued: "At first it was
forbidden
and later they allowed it to pass but each province had to be quarantined, and it was a lot of money."
Thus, the eight months of separation were spent between video calls, Zoom meetings and celebrating birthdays from a distance.
Until the isolation measures were becoming more flexible and he
only needed a negative coronavirus test
to be able to go to Mendoza and return to San Juan without problems.
The best hug.
The two brothers and a touching reunion.

Ariel, then, went with Vicente so that they would see each other again, but also for him to hug his eldest son again.
And when the door opened and the boys met, Ariel was
happy
.
"He cried in the same way as when he found out that he was going to have a baby brother four years ago," he said about Juan Cruz's reaction to seeing Vicente.
