    This could have happened in Cuba.

    It's time the US rethinks its absurd antagonistic policy towards Cuba.

    I can't begin to understand why a god would allow these things to happen if he loves mankind. There's no excuse good enough.

    Oh Six. I've been watching the news all afternoon. One news guy really got me. He broke down in the middle of his report. It of course had to do with the children.

    I really don't understand how we can put a man on the moon, literally, think about it, but we can't get water to all those who need it???

    Today I watched CNN and Sanjay Gupta (sp)

    was there. He was asked to look at an infant to see she just how extensive her head injury was.

    She had a laceration, all else seemed ok. He was making sure the infant got the antibiotics she will need.

    Fifteen days old, her mother died in the earthquake.

    I thought there could not be anything more horrific than watching the footage from the tsunami a few years ago.

    Hang in there you poor people, help is on the way.

    As much as I hate disasters, it warms my heart to see how us humans can raise to the occasion and take care of each other.

    Truly warms my heart.

    Those poor people. Some of our Haitian friends still haven't heard from family members.
