    yo pasé el terremoto en un piso 13 en viña del mar. Fue aterrador, los minutos más largos de mi vida, sentir los vidrios y cosas quebrándose y me caían encima la TV, libros y juguetes de mi hija pequeña… luego el silencio y la oscuridad, sin teléfono, sin luz, sin agua y paralizada por el terror… y no paró de temblar hasta el otro día. Solo al conocer la real magnitud de la tragedia, la mía es insignificante al lado de nuestros compatriotas de la VI a la VIII región… un abrazo a cada uno
