"UNDER A NUCLEAR CLOUD"

SEMEY, KAZAKHSTAN, NOVEMBER 21 Mayra Zhumageldina kisses her 16-year-old daughter, Zhannoor outside their home in Semey, Nov. 21, 2008. Zhannoor was born with microcephalia and sixth-degree scoleosis - a twisted spine - because of exposure to high levels of radiation. The defect harmed Zhannoor's brain development as if she were in a permanent vegetative state. She cannot think, speak or perform basic functions.
