An Amazing Story


This morning I found myself amazed at the story of survival of Bahia Bakari and wanted to share it with you. Bahia is a 14 year old French girl and is the only survivor of the plane that crashed in the Indian Ocean yesterday. Despite having a broken collarbone and lots of other bumps and bruises, the girl who can barely even swim managed to hold onto a piece of the airplane after she was ejected during the crash.

She held on for 13 hours through a storm and the night until she was spotted by rescue planes. Apparently she is going to recover physically 100%, but keeps calling out for her mother who is believed to have died in the crash along with another 152 people. She is in a hospital right now and is with her father. She and her mother were on their way to visit family when the plane crashed.
