Do you know about that earthquake that hit Haiti? It was a 7/10 on the Rictor scale. tt was pretty sad. Many people died or became homeless. Many children became orphans. It's really sad.
This morning ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE HIT! I still can't believe it. This one was a 6.1. I can't even imagine what devastation and terror has been added to the people of Haiti. It is really horrible. Just imagine if it happened to you...
You are in your backyard, playing with your friends. Suddenly, the ground starts shaking. Before you know it, your house and the houses around it are tumbling down. You look around, but can't see your friends. Then, you hear your mom scream. You sort through the pieces of wood trying to find her. You pull out a big piece of your roof. The screaming of other people and the cries for help suddenly disappear. You stare down. Your parents are lying down next to each other. There is blood around them, and they are still. As understanding flows through you, you start weeping. Your parents are dead. You fall to the floor, overcome with sadness. A big board of wood comes tunling down and hits you. You soon lose consciousness .
You wake up in front of a medical center, pain shooting through your body. You soon find out it has been a few days since the earthquake. You have a broken arm, a concussion, and you lost an eye. No wonder you felt like you lost your peripheral vision. Then you remember: you are an orphan. The tears come back. What will you do now? As a doctor tries to comfort you, the ground starts shaking again. OH NO! You grab onto the doctor's arm, fear surging through you, more than ever before...
Do I need to say more? Think of what these people are going through. Please do whatever you can to help.
