While not everyone survived this immense tragedy, those that did were trying to sort out their lives by asking questions on which way to turn, how to move forward, where to find work and what to do with themselves as they deal with the enormous pain for having lost loved ones underneath the debris. Still more pressing questions remain each day. Where will I sleep. Where can I find something to eat. Is my family safe tonight while they sleep and how do I take care of my babies when I have nothing left to give. Evelyn slept on the dirt with her babies for six weeks, too afraid to sleep inside her humble, red walled single roomed home, with finger sized fissures and cracks form floor to ceiling from the earthquake that took so many of her neighbors lives. In this image, on one morning, she was less concerned about her own life than she was about finding food, any food, and a bit of brown water from the river..for her babies.
