yeeaa!! and there are four left ..right? no, seven? :(
edit - found, only one died, glad there weren't more! I thought I heard 19 somewhere.. :rolleyes: now my thoughts are with them for their godspeed recovery! and prayers to the families who have lost this gentleman. :(
I was just watching CNN about a minute ago and they reported that twelve of those thirteen miners have died in the mine. There was one survivor and he is in critical condition. There was some sort of miscommunication between the the mining company and the press, reporting they were still alive. My heart and prayers go out to the families of those twelve miners.
:eek: :eek:
:confused: :confused:
:( :( :(
I can't get back to sleep and just turned on the tv...
I am stunned. Absolutely, stunned. Those poor, poor people. My heart goes out to all of them. :(
Heard the same on the news over here........can't imagine what those poor families are going through to go from elation to despair in such a short space of time. Sending prayers to everyone caught up in this tragedy
Our prayers are with all those families.
I stayed up late enough last night to see the good news . . . THEY'RE ALIVE, THEY'RE ALIVE . . . I was so happy, I could hardly sleep. I lay awake for hours thinking about them, their families . . . thanking God for sparing their lives. Then I woke this morning to the horrible and tragic news.
All but 1 DEAD.
OMG.
I am completely in shock.
This hits sooooo close to home. Literally hours from home. Mining is all around here . . . a big part of KY & WV . . . just a way of life.
I just hate that this has happened . . . I hate that these families have had to endure this roller coaster ride . . . and I feel that the media circus has not helped matters.
Prayers for the families.
What a horrible thing the families are going through. From joy to such sadness! I just can't imagine what that would be like. My prayers are going out to these families. I just feel so bad for them. They were so happy for such a short time, and then to hear such bad news and be let down like a ton of bricks like that! Just awful, awful.
I will be praying for these families.
Willie :(
How terrible. :( My sympathies to those families.
My heart and prayers go out to the families. What a tragedy - to go from such excitement to such disappointment. I kept hoping for a miracle, since the same thing happened in PA a few years ago and every single miner came out alive.
I was hoping also, Jen. Why couldn't they have found out if it were true before letting the miner's families know?? To me this was inexcusable.Quote:
