the third thing down from here its because she has been in the water for so long and by the looks of it she is trapped under something so all the blood must have ran to her head tht was under presure from the thing tht had trapped her lol
Omayra Sanchez (the girl pictured) was 12 years old at the time and lived with her parents, her brother and an uncle. However, prior to the tragedy, her mother had traveled to Bogotá on business. Omayra could not escape and was trapped under her own home\'s concrete plaque and debris.\n\nWhen rescue teams tried to help her, they realized that her legs were trapped. The only feasible option was to pull her out by breaking and ripping her legs off. Omayra remained strong until the last moment of her life. According to people who were by her side during those moments, the little girl wanted to live, saying her only worry was to go back to school.\n\nThe people who were trying to save her life begged the pilots of overflying helicopters to get a pump so the water could have been drained out. After two days a pump was delivered, but unfortunately it did not work properly and finally got stuck because of the mud and debris.\n\n(source: http://xmb.stuffucanuse.com/xmb/viewthread.php?tid=2589)
