Chilean disaster

Last Wednesday we have watched one of the biggest miracles in our history. The 33 chilean miners were successfully rescued. Richard Villaroel is an example of courage for all of us!

“Richard Villaroel holds up a red plastic bottle cap no bigger around than two of his fingers. Three-quarters full of canned tuna or salmon -- that's how little he ate every day in the Chilean mine that caved.
And the mine water he drank tasted like machine oil.
In the dark inferno of Earth's belly, he and 32 other miners resigned themselves to die but battled for life.
"We were waiting for death because our own bodies were eating themselves. I was afraid I would never meet my son," Villaroel says” (CNN Television)
