I couldn't help but find the video footage of the 4 year old little boy being rescued from the mudslide in the US heartening but it makes you cry to think what the poor little soul has gone through and how harrowing his memories are going to be. I don't know if the BBC have the footage, is was shown on Sky News and is bitter sweet to watch.
Apparently he was upstairs, watching TV when the mud slide hit his home. His mother was at work but his father and siblings are missing. 
I am glad his mother is alive to take care of him. It happens so quickly doesn't it, terrifying.

Yes. I saw the little feller being brought out on the news yesterday. So very sad. I'm glad he still has his mum. Poor little soul. And poor Mum too.
A miracle !
How wonderful, my heart still goes out those other people though.
