And I thought the original figure of 7,000 was a HUGE number, then when it jumped to 23,000 that was simply unimaginable..and now 116,000, I don't even know what to say..

Yeah, very very sad... Hopefully it does not come near the death toll of that one China earthquake... (300,000+)

x 116,000 +

🙁 I am still having a hard time accepting that this really happened.

125k here.

It'll climb higher after the disease that gets spread from all the wreckage kills even more people.

Unfortunately that number will continue to rise each day... the more remote places they get too, the more people reported missing... and most of all, disease... 🙁

Such a tragedy... I too, am having a hard time accepting that it happened.

You have friends and family in Thailand, don't you? Do you know of anyone, personally, that was lost?

Edit: N/M -- answered in the other thread 🙂
