Fitriah’s testimony: "The water rushed in from 7 km away, coming from two sides and hitting us with a clapping motion. It was devastating. I was in the volleyball court at the time. I have no idea how I survived. It was like a dream. I dont know how long I was under water. I was holding on to my daughters T-shirt. I still get afraid whenever I hear a strong wind or feel an earth tremor. The Tsunami sounded like an airplane, plus the sound of people screaming!" -lives-nearby-in-a-CRS-house-registered-in-his-own-name.-He-lost-both-parents-to-the-Tsunami,-but-now-lives-in-the-house-with-an-aunt,-29-year-old-Fitriah.--Photograph-taken-in-Aceh-Province-mid-December-2006,-2-years-after-the-Tsunami-of-December-26th-2004-devastated-much-of-the-coastal-region.-Taken-to-illustrate-reconstruction-work-and-projects-of-CRS-(Catholic-Relief-Services)-of-USA-who-sponsored-the-photo-tour.-Fitriahs-testimony:-The-water-rushed-in-from-7-km-away,-coming-from-two-sides-and-hitting-us-with-a-clapping-motion.-It-was-devastating.-I-was-in-the-volleyball-court-at-the-time.-I-have-no-idea-how-I-survived.-It-was-like-a-dream.-I-dont-know-how-long-I-was-under-water.-I-was-holding-on-to-my-daughters-T-shirt.-I-still-get-afraid-whenever-I-hear-a-strong-wind-or-feel-an-earth-tremor.-The-Tsunami-sounded-like-an-airplane,-plus-the-sound-of-people-screaming!-|15519.jpg)
