January 12, 2010

The disaster struck before anyone had the chance to get away. It was the four most devastating minutes of their lifetime. It left thousands homeless. There was no clean water, no food, and every house was destroyed. Diseases spread all around killing hundreds...

Haiti was no longer a peaceful country.

The author's comments:
January 12, 2010 was a devastating event. I thought it was awful. I had to write about it.
