Haiti digital story

Terrified people all around. There was screaming, crying, and the death of many people. When the earthquake hit I knew something bad was about to take place. I then saw buildings collapse one after the other and I was in shock. Why was this destruction happening? The building I was in had collapsed, I saw the ceiling falling and quickly ran for cover. I was safe in a corner but I was trapped from the debree that had fallen. I was one of the lucky ones that was able to survive and was left with only some cuts and bruises. When i was rescued from the people helping I went out to see if I could find my family. I knew I wasn't going to be able to find them because of all the people who were lost. The destruction that took place was hard to believe. There was nothing but remains from buildings and people who lost their lives in this event. I felt all alone, as did everyone that lived in Haiti. My home was gone, my country was gone, and I could only hope that that didn't happen to my family. Search people, and volunteers helped the people in my country as best they could but it will take years and years to fix the problem that has taken place. Many have died, many have injuries and I am struggling to survive my daily life. I am thankful that nothing has happened to me except a few bruises but I hope that the people who are helping my country will continue to help till this destruction is over.
