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

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.
 
Only one more to come up

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.
