Rescued miners come back to live by Magdalena Rosova

They used to be ordinary miners that no one knew about. But now, they have become national heroes. Outside the hospital, where miners were placed to be examined, there are reporters, TV producers, publicity agents and journalists desperate to hear their adventurous story. The miners were successfully rescued on Thursday and consequently they were given fashionable sunglasses that should protect them from the bright light. After 69 days buried under the ground in the darkness their eyes have become very sensitive and that is the reason they need to wear sunglasses. Just one day after their rescue the miners wearing hospital bathrobes posed for a group photo with Chilean Pres! ident Sebastian Pinera. For more than two weeks no one knew whether the “los 33”, as they were known, is alive or not. The men say it was the unity that helped them to survive. Until they are in the hospital, they under the care of a government operation that has protected them. The rescuers did a good job, the rescue campaign was carefully coordinated and all miners are in good conditions. But once they walk out the hospital doors, they have to take care of themselves. It seems they will not have a chance to take a rest. Their first day of fresh air they were probably the 33 most in-demand people on the planet. For example a Greek mining company offered the miners holidays on the sunny Aegean islands. But they have much more offers. Soccer teams in Madrid, Manchester and Buenos Aires want them in their stadiums, President of Bolivia invited them at his palace and many others from all over the world invites them to come.
