Belle, I think that the United States is doing all that they can. You are right it's a total disaster & the thought of all these people who are without homes, food, etc. are great. I think what is the worst is how so many people have died & they have made mass graves for them all. I cannot imagine what it must feel like to be in their place. I have seem pictures of people who have had to be held down because they are so upset or injured..it just doesn't stop. I'm glad that they extended the Visas for the Haitians who are over here on Visas..they have extended their Visas for 18 more months. There would be no place for them to go if they had to go home. All any one can do right now is to pray & go one day at a time. ~J in AZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Belle Shepherd" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 16, 2010 9:42 PM Subject: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] EARTHQUAKE............. > Hello all, > I have been watching CNN and the terrible reports on the damage and loss > of lives.
