    This article was very satisfying to read. I'm so impressed with the strategies the rescuers used. The path out looks even more treacherous than I had imagined!

    It was gut wrenching to watch, but it was refreshing to see a positive story like this, Where people came together and cooperated with each other and were Genuinely and uniformly (as far as we know) helpful and kind. It’s been a long time.

I bet it’s too tight for that.

    I’m heartened by the internationalization cooperation that is being poured into this rescue. I really hope and pray that all these great minds and brave adventurers can pool their talents to figure this out!!
    I just have to quote myself. They kind of ended up doing what I suggested here!

    Drugging the kids was genius. They removed the single most concerning factor (panicking with limited oxygen) by doing that. I wonder if the Australian anesthesiologist was the one who suggested it?

    They Gave antianxiety meds so I don’t think they were totally out but yes, that was a brilliant idea. You called it, Bisous!
