"We lost everything"

Sunday, December 11, 2016

Zinnia grabbed her one-year old baby and ran for the door after the magnitiude 7.8 earthquake struck in the early hours of Friday morning. Before they could escape, the brick door structure collapsed. When the door was clear, she continued and another structure collapsed just where they had been standing. Thankfully they were not injured, but their house was badly damaged along with most of their belongings. A second powerful earthquake the following day, and many tremors since, have left them shaken.
