This is just so terrible. However, it is amazing they have still been pulling out survivors. My heart goes out to those people.

I heard this morning the terrible news about the rescue workers now being killed as well. It's just awful.

I heard the same thing. Just absolutely horrible. I'm also not hearing much more news about Burma. The Chinese earthquake has sort of overshadowed it as of late.

It's amazing that they pulled another survivor out this morning. It's a small blessing with all the sadness they are having at the moment. I also just saw the video of right after. It's scary to see.

What a nightmare for these people... I doubt they'll be able to sleep soundly for a long time.
