One of the worsts earthquakes

I was afraid, never thougth it was that bad. My dad came home with his brother and we were awake the hole night. Daniela, my sister, too. But my mother not, she went to bed. We did not have electricity untill Monday, so we did't not see what happened in the south of our country , it was very bad, so many houses destroyed, people dead.
During the earthquake our dogs and my cat, Mily, were also afraid, andthey slept in the bedroom of my mother.
I think that we should be aware of this desastres and take care of all the people that have lost all their things. They need to eat and they need a house to live in, we have to keep on helping them.
Is hard to belive how our lives can change so much in just a couple of minutes. We have to think more about it.
