This is the stuff that kills me. They don't have a home, all is gone around them, but bless their hearts, they saved the dog.

A man carries his child and dog across a river as they flee an area devastated by the quake-triggered tidal waves on the Indonesian island of Nias, off the coast of northern Sumatra, December 30, 2004. Asia's tsunami death toll soared above 125,000 on Friday as millions struggled to find food and clean water and the world mobilised for what is shaping up to be the biggest relief effort in history

A boy eats food, donated by aid organizations, along with pet dog at Pattinapakkam, near Madras, India, Friday, Dec. 31, 2004. As the death toll from the earthquake-tsunami catastrophe soared to 117,000, nations donated US$500 million (euro370 million) toward the world's largest-ever relief effort. The death toll in India is above 7,300.

I love their determination and resourcefulness. Look at the system he engineered to keep his child secure and the dog stable with his head up. Thanks for posting this thread.
