Affected by typhoon Sendong - Locals affected by the storm gather in an evacuation center on December 18, 2011 in Cagayan de Oro, Philippines. Typhoon Sendong, a tropical storm that swept across the south of the country, has claimed more than 900 lives as flash floods and landslides hit rural communities, washing families and their houses into the sea.

I don't know how long it would take for someone to be able to move on when 2 or more members of his/her family died due to a very strong typhoon who wiped out almost one thousand lives in the most recent disaster that happened in our very own place Cagayan de Oro, Philippines. I think it's really hard and so painful considering that Christmas is past approaching, I can't imagine how they will celebrate Christmas when they lost their houses and other properties, not to mention those people who lost their love ones.

I've heard about this news. I wouldn't know how to pull myself together if I ever experience something like this. This is something big and I hope I this doesn't happen to me. The body count is still increasing, from what I heard. I hope they already find all the bodies so that their loved ones can pay their respects.
