Baby Elisabeth and Anna Zizi bring hope to quake-hit Haitians

"It was the mercy of God," said her mother Michelene Joassaint, 22, as she breastfed her daughter on a makeshift bed next to the heavily damaged city hospital.

Anna Zizi had been praying in the cathedral when the earthquake struck. She was singing when they pulled her out alive.

"I talked only to my boss — God. And I didn't need any more humans," said the 69-year-old woman.
