Heartbreaking

[southlandshari]

I saw this on CNN earlier and bawled like a baby. Now the video link has been posted here on DU. Warning - this will kick even the hardest of hearts in the gut - this is the human face of so many of the victims Katrina has left in her wake:

8. I can't blame you.

I will never forget that man and his complete and utter despair. But watching it will also make you want to do something, anything to help the victims of this storm. If nothing else, it does that.

God bless those little boys.

9. She was genuinely struggling to keep her composure

I don't think that is an interview that young reporter will ever forget.

7. It's rare to see a reporter cry and that woman was sobbing.

That is just beyond heartbreaking. My heart is breaking for that family. :(
