doubt that is this cave, water is too clean  and they are not carrying them, one diver in front and one behind. Imagine it is from another cave rescue for display purposes only

[Cake Monster]

The sedation of the children comes as little surprise to me.

Their ordeal of having to go through flooded and tight passageways, underwater, in almost total darkness would scare the hell out of 99,9% of people whatever age they are.

A small dose of a " pre-med " kind of sedative administered by the Ozzy guy ( Doctor ) in the team, will go a long way in relaxing the kids.

Thats why he was called in by the UK dive team, 

This really had to be done in order that the kids can come out safely. If one child panics  there will be a domino effect, which could cause Oxygen supply issues and possible injury to the child, their friends in the line, the divers and every body else involved in the rescue attempt.

I know its not a nice thought, but common sense has to prevail here.

I may well join them, sedative of choice will be beer! ? 

[fantom]

I hope that there is thought going into their post extraction rehabilitation. Not so much their experiences in the cave but rather dealing with the intense attention they will get, young footballers one day and 'heroes' the next along with photo ops with every tom Dick and Harry along with intense public pressure.

 

Time to remember they are 13 young people now thrust blinking literally and metaphorically into the limelight. Time for understanding.

I was thinking this yesterday, soon they will ALL be in the hospital, its more likely than not it will be the first time they have slept in beds on their own with clean sheets! Huge changes in their lives.

the oldest boy will be very popular now with the girls.

My guess would be that the tanks will be sold like devotionalia as having been used in THE rescue. Probably more than those used will get sold ... ?

To the leaving of the tanks inside: This is still an emergency OP. Peoples life should not be put to risk for mere material.

Elsewhere I suggested a statue of Saman Kunan should be made, and it should be cast in Aluminium from some of the air tanks used in the rescue.

pumps have been turned off and the last boy and coach are in chamber 3

Is the fully out now 11 or 13 (12+1)?

Unless I'm confused, 11 out of cave, 2 past the last swim in cave 3, getting ready to come out.

I would say they have already been blessed. There are some very unassuming heroes who have been involved here, from all around the world,without who, this episode was likely to have had a far less happy ending. Their expertise and bravery has been the real blessing. I suspect farang will be looked upon in a whole new light by many after this, especially around Chiang Rai. Good Luck Boys and well done the rescue team. Awesome effort!

I was nearer the caves than to Chiang Rai last night in the night bazzar and it has to be said ( yes it does ) wearing an 8 yo England shirt , Did I get bought a beer , I did not , pah no respek init .

Would sedation allow them to walk?  Or is it short lived and after a short rest they recover?  Or just totally removes chance of anxiety attacks?

[seajae]

would imagine 13 is going to be a popular number with the lottery tickets for a while now

It has been for awhile now.

[steve73]

13 will no longer be called "unlucky for some" - it'll be "lucky 13" in Thailand.

Bromazepam (Lexotan, Lexomil) removes anxiety while keeping you functional

[Cake Monster]

There is no need for the kids to walk, there are dozens of brave divers an RTN Seals that will be only too happy to carry them out if the need arises.

A relaxant is short lived, but drastically reduces the risk of panic attacks.

Not a good thing to happen in their situation
