I'll write more later, but I wanted to post and say that this happened today:
Thirty-three miners who have been trapped underground in a Chilean mine for the past 17 days are all alive!
It is legitimately a miracle. My host family told me that the families and people all around Chile have been praying for days, even though all the "experts" said that there was no way the miners would still be alive. We listened to the news on the radio about it and everyone sounded so happy and grateful. It is totally heartwarming.
Still, it's going to be months before they can get out again. They might not even be out before I go back to the US. I can't imagine.
