>> wow. >> there is now a doctor and a nurse that are in the cave with the boys and their coach. can they survive in there for three, four months until the floodwaters recede? is that a real option right now? >> they're running out of options. the conditions were quite good. heavy pumps are doing their job. the water is receding quite a bit. it dropped six foot in the last days. they were hoping it would be low enough so they could literally swim the kids out. but the water has risen. yesterday the water came up a bit, and they're expecting heavy rains, which would flood the entire system. you've seen the base on footage. if the rain starts, these would all flood, making the distance to the entrance double, which would make it impossible to get to the kids. so yes, they would have to be literally locked up for three or four months until the rain stops and the water resides. they would take big packs of food with them for this time.
