Praying that all goes smoothly. We've been watching the news......

 

[jayne]

Watching the live feed on CNN. First guy is OUT! Whooo hoo!

 

[Miniv]

Yep.......Saw the first man out........This is going to be an all night vigil.

As my husband pointed out, can you imagine being the LAST man???

i watched last night till i couldn't keep my eyes open...woke up at 2 a.m. with the t.v. still on and watched more till i fell back to sleep. will watch today. what a miraculous rescue!!!

It's definitely been miraculous. Last night they said one of the miners wrote that God has been there with them through the whole ordeal. I know when I heard that it would be months before they could be rescued I didn't have much hope for them. Some of the stories they're telling about what they did to stay mentally and physically strong have been remarkable. I would think that the last man out will be one of the rescuers who went down last night.

I have 8.5 hours of driving to do today but couldn't stop watching, and crying. Number 12 is on his way up now.

It is a miracle, so far 15 have arrived ..

My husband used to work in the nickel mines in Thompson Manitoba for a year, he had a cave in one morning and had to wait for help to get the 2 of them out and you never know how dark it is until this happens. He was trapped for only 8 hours.

Nothing like these guys, but he was scared.

He stayed up quite a bit last night watching the survivors.

God Bless

They are awaiting # 18 now. Sending another "rescuer" down to swap out some of the other men who went down last night.

 

[Katiean]

I just watched number 27 be brought to the serface

 

[Reble]

Only one more to come up

:yeah

& the 5 rescuers.

 

[BigDogs & LittleHorses]

They did it!!!

All miners and rescuers out safely.

It's so nice to have a happy ending to something that could have been so tragic.

You are so right... This is a miracle, and amazing everyone is alive and doing well, considering. Can never imagine what they must been feeling being down there 69 days.
