It has been an entire week since this devastating event hit, but still Haiti rescues are being located beneath the debris. Most people couldn't fathom the ability to survive under these conditions, but the incredible stories keep rolling in of men, women, and children who are still being found in the aftermath. Haiti rescue workers are still working around the clock to clear the streets and surrounding areas in Port-au-Prince.

Once recent "miracle" story, a 6 year old girl who was pulled from the rubble earlier today is keeping hopes high for loved ones a and family members. The multi-national rescue has recovered over 60 people so far. On Sunday alone 5 individuals were found alive, trapped in a grocery store.

The rescue efforts have gotten more tedious as the recent looting frenzy has worried both natives and visitors. These crimes have started as a result of the exceeding poverty levels that have been present since the quake. Even though hope for life grows slimmer as time goes on, many people people have faith that there will be more found. CNN has recently put together an article on the new Haiti rescues.
