My brother saw a woman miscarry in line rather than lose her and her unborn child's place in line to get to evacuate to food, water, and medicine . The poor woman was so famished and weak, she did not understand what was going on until the child died in her arms. She then put her 6 month or so bloody and limp child/fetus in a plastic bag. Her husband had to be carried onto the bus. My brother could not stand after that - who could.

I hope you are sobbing - I am too. Damn anyone who caused that. FIVE FU**ING DAYS caused that and how is that for perspective.
I don't even know what to say to that. Your brother must be very strong. I think I would lose the ability to do other things besides standing. Horrible.
