I’m sorry that your optometrist died. I hope you are okay. Is your family safe? I am glad you are helping out by doing washing for people who have no water!
From Olivia and Emi

What a sad experience this earthquake has been for so many people, it must be very tough for some.

Along with that there is all the amazing stuff that is being done often without any recognition or reward. Acts of bravery by teachers in schools, children helping save others, people pulling one another through the days of despair and worry.

And of course the acts of kindness and grace of which it seems your family are doing, well done.

It is very humbling sitting so far away to see and hear what you are managing in such exceptional circumstances.

We are trying to do things here to help and yet they seem so little, at this time I can only send my best wishes to you and your family and wish you well.

From Ella in Auckland.
