Eight Rescued Boys from Thailand Cave are in Good Health, Today’s Rescue Venture is “More Demanding”
The rescued boys are under observation and reportedly are in good physical and mental health. The rescue venture for the coach along with four more boys resumes today.
All have been going in favor till this time. The prayers of a number of Thai family members have been answered. The heroic divers have rescued eight boys from the group. Although their 25-year-old coach and four more boys are still inside the flooded Tham Luang cave. And, bringing them off to safety, begins today.
Now, as the rescue process has entered day three, it has become more “demanding”. In the previous two days, four boys were brought out on each day. Today, there are four boys, one adult, a doctor and three navy seals. “Please give us time to work. Today’s mission is more demanding than the two previous days,” the mission chief said.
The first four boys were brought out to the daylight on Sunday, followed by four more on Monday.
However, all of them are now under medical observation and are not allowed to meet their parents. Two of them have been diagnosed with lung inflammation and are getting treated. For the next seven days, the young lads will be kept under observation and their parents will be allowed to see them only from a specific distance.
The coach and the boys, who were trapped in the Tham Luang cave of Northern Thailand since 23rd June, have spent around two weeks in the darkness, away from the basic necessities of survival. Now they are given sunglasses to wear as they have developed photosensitivity for spending such a long time in a gloomy environment. X-rays and blood tests are being performed to make sure they are free from any kind of infection.
On the other hand, FIFA has invited the entire cave trapped group to witness the World Cup 2018 Final in Russia. But being under observation whether they would make it or not, is doubtful. But if they do visit Russia for the finals, it would be a most sensational occurrence of FIFA 2018.
Amidst all such positive news, a tragic incident took place as well, a few days ago. The rescue operation had not yet started then. A former Thai navy diver Saman Guman, who was returning from a mission to provide the group with air tanks, ran out of oxygen himself. He was declared dead last Friday. His bravery and contribution to the rescue venture will be remembered.
