From a distance, it is hard to imagine that the same young girl who loves to sing along to Phi Nhung songs while drifting off to sleep next to me, chatters away about her lifelong dreams of opening up an orphanage for homeless children in Vietnam, and gets excited about eating pizza is the same young woman who has endured a type of pain and suffering most of us will never encounter in all of our lives.

Chris is such an amazing talent. His photos arouse and provoke thought. Admittedly, I admire his sensitivity, sensuality and intelligence which comes shining through in his work. Chris, please stay a friend. I would hate to lose such a gem.
