Another miracle:

A teenager who survived December’s tsunami has been rescued by police from a remote island on India’s Andaman and Nicobar archipelago.

Eighteen-year-old Jessy is said to have lived on wild fruit for 45 days.

She was found on Wednesday close to the site where nine survivors of the tsunami were found last week.

Jessy is part of the Nicobarese tribe. She fled the tsunami and sought shelter in the forest. When she tentatively made her way out several days later, “the rest of the population had been either evacuated to Campbell Bay or swept away by the waves”.

Her husband and year-old baby are among 1,000 people who are still considered missing; apparently, the “lucky” survivor told police that she believes her family are actually among the 2,000 archipelago-dwellers who died. 🙁

Sigh. I’ll take every bit of good that I can get.
