“Lost Souls or Lingering Secrets? Coast Guard Discovers Mysterious Life Signs on Abandoned Island!”
The Survivors Were Very Grateful
As expected, the survivors were grateful to finally be off the island. “Being out in those harsh elements for a long period of time, they were very happy to see us,” Allert recalled.
While talking to The Daily Telegraph, Ltd. Dougherty added, “They definitely seemed very relieved. They had lost track of exactly what day it was.” That means that the survivors might have been there longer than 33 days, although we will never know the true timespan.
They Were Rushed To The Hospital
But the three survivors were not in the clear yet. After picking them up, the Coast Guard took them to the Lower Keys Medical Center, a hospital in Florida. The Coast Guard dropped them off and waited for a report.
Meanwhile, the Coast Guard reported that the mission was successful near 6:00 p.m. that evening. They also tweeted out the success, relieving thousands of Twitter users who wanted to see whether the three people would survive.
The Survivors Were Surprisingly Healthy
After the survivors arrived at the hospital, the doctors determined that they were remarkably healthy. They were dehydrated and fatigued, but none of them had injuries. Few people could survive that long on an island with no freshwater.
“It was incredible,” said Ltd. Dougherty. “I don’t know how they did it. I am amazed that they were in such good shape when we saw them.” But the mystery remained: how did two men and one woman end up on Anguilla Cay?
