Jose Morelos

His name was Noe and he hadn’t seen his mother for 10 days. He was nearly 1 year old. When the earthquake hit he was with his aunt. The house they were staying in collapsed, killing his aunt. Somebody rescued Noe and he ended up at a hospital in Jimani, a city in the Dominican Republic. On Sunday he was reunited with his mother. It was striking how unemotional Noe was, when he saw his mother.  What an incredible trauma he must have endured. Maybe the trauma had sapped him, hopefully temporarily, of outward emotions.
