The Children of Pakistan


Among the thousands of human tragedies caused by the flooding in Pakistan, are the children.  Nine million children are most affected by water-borne illnesses spreading because of the floods, says the World Health Organization.  Parents fought desperately to save the little ones from flooding, only for them to be lost to lack of clean water and sanitation and access to medical care.    
Scared...Hungry...Thirsty...
Stunned.....Shocked.....Worried.....
  These are emotions you wish children don't ever feel. Sadly, playtime has been cut short.
