Photos of the devastation tsunamis caused in Southeast Asia two weeks ago brought the horror of the disaster home to people all around the world. Now, as tsunami survivors return home, they are sharing their stories of determination and hope.

One Wisconsin native was scuba diving when the tsunami hit and is now helping with the relief effort. A couple who ran from the beach together were separated but survived. And an Alabama woman is still struggling to make sense of the destruction she saw.

Tune in to hear the stories of these survivors, what they witnessed and what they are thinking now.
