Indonesian girl reunited with family after tragedy

       In 2004 an Indonesian girl was swept away in a tsunami. The girls name was Meri Yuranda and she was only eight years old when this happened to her.
       When the tsunami swept her away a women found her and made her beg. The women would also beat poor Meri, and leave her out in the streets all night. When Meri stopped bringing money to the women the women told her to go find her real family.
       The girl was young when she got carried away by a tsunami and could not remember much about her family. All she knew was her grandfathers name and the place where her family lived. She went around asking people if they knew her grandfather. She found a man that knew her grandpa and he took her to him. The grandfather then took her to her family and she is now reunited with her family.
