Slideshow transcript

Slide 1: “My dearest child, if you are able to survive, you must remember that I love you ” A slideshow for UNICEF China Designed by Oliver Ding

Slide 2: When the rescue team discovered her, she was already dead. She was crushed by the house that collapsed. Through the debris and destruction, you can see the position in which she died.

Slide 3: She was kneeling, with her whole body in a forward position, using her hands to support her body. It is somewhat similar to how people pray in the olden days, except that her body has somewhat changed its shaped, and it looks a little scary.

Slide 4: The rescue worker squeezed his hand through all the debris just to confirm that she's dead. He shouted a few times, using his baton to knock a few times on the bricks.. but there was no response inside.

Slide 5: When the crowd walked to the next building, the team leader suddenly ran back again, shouting, "come quickly!!!"

Slide 6: He came to her dead body, and used all his might to feel under the woman's body. He seems to have felt something... then he shouted,

Slide 7: "there's someone, there's a child, still alive"

Slide 8: After some struggle, the team and volunteers helped to clear all the debris apart, and took out her child from under her body. He was wrapped in a red blanket with yellow floral patterns. He's about 3 or 4 months old.

Slide 9: Because of his mother's protection, he was completely unscathed. When they carried him out, he was still sleeping peacefully. His sleeping face warmed everyone's heart. The accompanying doctor performed some checks on him, and found a hand phone inside the blanket.

Slide 10: He read the screen and found that it wrote the following, all entered in the phone.

Slide 11: "My dearest child, if you are able to survive, you must remember that I love you"

Slide 12: The doctor who has experienced many births and deaths in life through his career, cried too at this moment. The phone was passed around. Everyone who saw it couldn't help shedding tears either.

Slide 13: As death tolls continues to rise, the Chinese government continues to expand an already massive emergency response effort with an additional 30,000 troops and 90 helicopters dispatched to the scene. Already there were 100,000 troops, policemen and firemen and 1,235 medical teams working in the rescue effort. State news sources say that 13,400 persons have been rescued so far.

Slide 14: With the help of contributions from the public, UNICEF assistance has started to arrive in the affected area.

Slide 15: UNICEF is supporting the Government relief effort by helping to provide 900 tents 15,000 blankets and 60,000 school kits.
