This article is called : In northeastern Japan, hope dwindles as death toll mounts .
In this article many people are sad and mourning over their family's deaths. A lot of people are walking around showing other people pictures of their loved ones in hope that someone has seen them or recognizes them from somewhere. A hospital in Japan got drowned with water as the tsunami was happening. Images of people being swept away are devasting. Help arrived to many places 3-4 days later which wasn't much help to the people at the hospital because many got drowned especially those on the main 1st and 2nd floors. A man was holding on to his 71 year old father's hand and was holding him above the water and then when the tsunami came he couldn't hold on any longer because of the strong rushes of the currents and I feel terrible for him because he had no other choice than to let go. At least he knows he tried. The worst part about Japan getting hit is knowing that 30% of their population is over 65 years of age. Japan fears that more than half the percent of missing people have already passed away or drowned /=. It's a very sad thing but all we have left to do is pray <3 . . .
