Lebert, 14 years old, and Kervin, 13 have joined the Espwa family. Lebert was at school when the earthquake happened. He was buried and finally rescued but when he went home he found it destroyed. He searched and searched but found no one. He was put on a bus for Les Cayes. Kervins was a restavek in Port Salut. His single mom could not care for him and work in PaP at the same time so she placed him with a family in Port Salut. Kervin says he was abused in every way as a restavek and ran away when the earthquake struck. He was not able to reach PaP and wonders if his mom is alive. Is someone making a list of survivors so that loved ones can find them?
