Crystalline Tragedy: A female toddler whose ankle has been tied by twine, perhaps by a loved one to prevent separation, floats in the Irrawaddy River Delta, Burma (Myanmar). What happened to other members of her family may never be known because, unlike in Thailand in the aftermath of the Asian tsunami, no effort has been made to collect bodies so that bereaved families might bury their dead.
