Fourteen year old Niranjana Balakrishnan lost her parents in the conflict. She is the only child in the family. She stayed at the Tender Sprouts pre-tsunami location in Mullaithivu coast on December 26, 2004. She was holding her three year old friend Arabi, but lost control and let her go with the wave. She carried Arabi's body from Mullaithivu to Mulliyawalai. Since then she had nightmares about the Tsunami. Tender Sprouts has now moved twelve kilometers inland, in Udayarkattu.
