| In the wake of the Tsunami of 2004, countless children were scattered from their family in Asia. This story shows the account of one of the children, named "Baby 81", who was found off the coast of Sri Lanka and admitted to a local hospital. Nine women claimed that the child, whose real name is Abilass Jeyarajah, was theirs, but one couple emerged as the presumed parents. The couple hoped a court order would hand the child over to them but were ordered a DNA test before this could take place. The couple, distraught at this news, decided to take the child from the hospital. The following pictures reflect the couple, their family and friends' struggle to retrieve "Baby 81." | ||||||||||
