Chile Miners Rescue

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-11489439

I am glued to the TV watching the test run of the rescue capsule on BBC World News. This is all I can focus on tonight. I hope and pray that all goes well with the rescue mission and that all 33 trapped miners reach the surface safely.

  2. Hi Jane,

    I saw the first miner reach the surface; his son cried and brought tears to my own eyes. I miss Ollie for the weekend, geez, I'd be a mess after 69 days.

    cheers,

    Gord

  3. I came home from work today and my MIL was having a little cry while watching the miners getting brought to the surface.
    What a sense of relief for their loved ones.

  6. So glad all is going well. Watched the whole time I ironed last night and caught the amazing first rescue. The 7 yr. son got me in the heart.

  7. This brought tears to my eyes too..we had the tv out at work last night trying to catch glimpses of the rescue but unfortunately we were pretty busy out in the main part of the building so missed some of it. I read a news articl online this morning that was kinda funny in a way when it said some had their wife AND lover show up and just had to deal with it basically! hoo boy!hope they all get out ok and recover. I'm not sure that's something I could get through and I consider myself pretty much a loner at times but that's too much for me.
