Unforgettable date: "Hearthquake in my country"

I remember it was the  1/12/10 at  6 PM my mother and I talked about a trip to Haiti to visit our family.Suddenly, the phone rang it was my mother's aunt she said:"watch CNN now because there is a terrible thing happened in Haiti". Without hesitation i dialed my father's phone number. Unfortunately, our little country was already disconnect with the whole world.I even cried i felt a lot of pain because i taught i had no family in Haiti.After four days my cousin sent me a mail she wrote:"we are alive".I was so happy and i can said only two words:"thanks God".However,  i lost friends,neighbors,teachers, and one cousin.How could i get over this drama?  When i saw a lot of corpes surround my country anytime i watched TV i was out of my life .Now i'm feel better because i visited my father for six months ago.He was healthy and the rest of my family.That's the only one reason that i can live without sadness right now.

  1. I'm glad you and your family were relatively lucky in that you didn't lose anyone in your immediate family, but I'm so sorry for all you lost in the earthquake. I'm sure it will take a long, long time for most of the pain to go away. The country will also unfortunately take a long time to recover from such a traumatic event.
