Couple stand in shock, watching their world crumble around them
Josi Fletcher and her husband Charly grabbed their babies and ran out of their home as it crumpled to the ground behind them - They were caught in the Indonesian 7 magnitude earthquake that killed hundreds of people in August.
Josi and their two children moved back to the Hibiscus Coast but Charly stayed behind to help rebuild his mother's home and Lombok.
Josi has set up a Givealittle page and is running a charity event and auction on September 29 at JAC's Trading Co on the Hibiscus Coast to raise money to help.
