00:01When we first came here outside Gaitawandu's main teaching hospital,
00:05we saw families putting up these posters,
00:08appeals for their loved ones who had gone missing in the floods.
00:12Now, two weeks later, some of these posters have faded,
00:15but the wall keeps growing.
00:17And what hits you being here is just how many families
00:21have been impacted by this tragedy.
00:24Some 5,000 people are still missing,
00:26and that's that many families
00:28who are still searching and hoping and waiting for answers.
00:32And their hopes are being kept alive
00:34by some extraordinary rescues in these last few days.
00:37A Chinese worker was found alive inside a hydropower tunnel,
00:41and a woman was pulled from a house
00:43after surviving for 10 days under mud and debris.
00:46And that's well beyond the 72-hour golden window.
00:49The family had already performed her last rites.
00:52So for some families, stories like that
00:55make it incredibly difficult to give up.
00:57But others have reached a different point.
00:59Here at the Pashupatina Temple,
01:01families are holding symbolic last rites for their loved ones.
01:04The funeral pyres in front of me are actually empty.
01:07But the families here have decided it is time to say goodbye.
01:11Now, Nepal will eventually rebuild its roads,
01:14its homes and the towns swept away in this disaster.
01:17But for many, many people here,
01:19that final sense of closure may never come.
01:22So that was something we have to do with each other.
01:22Thanks, Pamela.
01:22Yes, to have been in touch with us.
01:22Thank you very much.
01:24Thank you very much.
01:25You
