Default Do you know this boy? Tsunami victim who's lost his parents



The boy about 2 years old, was found in Khoa Lak and is missing his parents.

The authorities don't know what country he is from, and so if anybody recognises him please contact the Phuket Hospital by phone;

076-249400-4 ext. 1336 or 1339

or by e-mail;

info@phuket-inter-hospital.co.th.

Long shot I know, but it's worth a try!

Please post on any other websites that you use.

Thanks for reading.

Big Christmas tree in the background. The poor little lad must not have a clue whats going on or whats happened.

Hope they find his parents soon

BRILLIANT NEWS!!!!!

Seems I was a bit behind the times. Just saw it on another website and thought I'd post it on here.

Oh well no harm done, at least they found his parents!

Its only a small contribution to what may be needed, but every penny from the A4 Pf calenders I had printed, went to dec.org

Seeing that still hurts inside even though that little boy maybe happier now Im sure there are many others who are not.

In those situations time does not heal wounds, money dosn't help either but sometimes you just have to do somethng, however small.

geeeeeeezzz that is really good to see that the family are back together,the father of this kiddy was on a bbc1 Documentry last night ,the father was trying so deperately to find the kiddy (as we all would be)apparently the father was already told of a "Blond" 2 yr old kiddy that was found dead with a body bag number of 85,but it turns out the unfortunate todler was too small,the father was then told of another kiddy that was "blond" and 2yrs of age also dead but they were checking on the height of him as he was un-recognisable,but to see this now is fan-fuckintastic

Big up to all the peeps that have and are helping out

Hard to imagine how the family must have felt when they saw that e-mail their nephew/grandson downloading onto their PC screen!

Great news though - just a shame that the story doesn't have as cheerful an ending for so many who were/are out there
