It's heart wrenching to see(in the news) so many dead bodies washing up ashore or lying in the streets. All the Aid agencies pooling their efforts together to bring aid to thousands devastated by this horrific tsunami.
Still according to AP... Stories of survival emerged amid the devastation.
A blond-haired 2-year-old found sitting alone on a road in Thailand and taken to a hospital was reunited with his uncle, who saw the boy's picture on the hospital's Web site.
"When I saw Hannes on the Internet, I booked an air ticket to come here in less than five hours," said a man who identified himself only as Jim. Hannes Bergstroem's mother died in the tsunami; his father was in another hospital, the Swedish paper Aftonbladet reported.
In Malaysia, a 20-day-old baby was found floating on a mattress soon after the waves hit Sunday. She and her family were reunited.
