The sadness, anguish, and despair is too real in these photos. Bless these people, our neighbors in China. That was a massive earthquake that shook that country to its foundations. The human toll over there is climbing daily between this and the Cyclone ravaged Myanmar.

These photos are from the hardest hit areas of the 7.9 magnitude quake in china. They are harsh, real, and overwhelming. If you cannot handle pictures of horror, pain, and sadness,  don't click the link below.  I'm so sad at this point, I just want to hold some of these people and cry for them.


China Quake Pictures

Then there is always the horrors that are man made which seem to kill even more.

Lori, you sound just like Mother. She was very distressed over this too. Said prayers for all the people.
Bless your heart, sweetie.

I'm sure none of this was helped by the construction methods in China either.  And, if the past is any guide, whatever number they are giving out, triple it.

Add to this that there are several dams that appear to have been damaged by the quakes.  Chinese media announced that they have work crews scrambling to fix the damage before the dams burst.

Very sad....there is nothing worst the losing a child  ...some horrible events have taken place recently, life is so fragile.
