What has happened is horrible. To be told and led to believe that your loved one was alive for 3 hours and get told that they aren't. They will be in my prayers!

Did anyone happen to hear any of the media coverage before the families found out that the miners were actually not alive? I saw a replay of Nightline and it was truly outrageous. The media had the miners coming out of the mine and being triaged and being taken by ambulance etc! My prayers are with them all.

This is horrible. All I heard was that someone from the mining company overheard a phone conversation(Obviously only one side) and called one on the family memebers on her cell phone to tell them that they were alive. According to reports this morning, that was when they were doing the triage thing and said that they had 12 miners, but according to reports they never said they were alive, but that is what the person that overheard it thought. It is indeed terrible, has anyone heard how the one survivor is doing ?????gayle

I heard they think the one survivor might have brain damage. That is so horrible.
