Sad NPR story

http://www.npr.org/blogs/chengdu/2008/05/we_found_fu_guanyu_and.html

I heard this story from NPR while I was driving with my 5 year old child. My child kept asking why people had to cry and who was missing and what they were searching for. I had to tell her it was only a story, not real, just like the movies she had seen. Yes I really hope this story is not real, since it has no happy ending.

After many hours digging and all effort, Melisa Block told us the ending:

Wang Zhilu, two months shy of his second birthday, was found in the arms of his grandfather, with his grandmother holding onto her husband from behind. All three were dead - three among what are likely to be tens of thousands of people who perished in Monday's earthquake.
