Bad Luck/Good Luck

Just saw this sad story with a somewhat happy ending on CNN.com:

HIXTON, Wisconsin (AP) – A 2-year-old girl who survived a car crash that killed her parents wandered across a freeway and was found in a grove of trees three hours later by authorities who tracked her footprints in the snow.

The girl, Anita Kayachith, was at home with relatives in Minnesota on Monday, three days after the wreck.
…
The car was struck by a tractor-trailer that slid on ice and crossed the median of Interstate 94 early Friday, the Wisconsin State Patrol said. The car slid under the truck. The girl’s parents, who were from Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, were killed.

There’s a picture with the story; she’s a sweet looking little girl. So sad to lose both parents so young.
