Speechless

What Acaimie saw next, left her speechless and she froze in the position she was in. Clay had fallen from fifty feet and there was vomit of blood all around him. “I just kept praying the whole time,” said Acaimie who was scared to death.

Recalling

“I was holding onto the ropes, kind of walking down backwards like you would a ladder,” Clay recalled. “Next thing I notice, I’m sitting on the ground with my head between my knees and vomiting up blood, and there’s blood all down my shirt. I think that a rope snapped and I fell. But we’re not entirely certain because I don’t remember falling at all.”

Isolated

There was no help that could be called for, anywhere near the injured couple. And to make things worse, there were no signals in the cellphones either. Acaimie knew that they were entirely alone and she would have to do something on her own.

Pillar Of Strength

Acaimie put in all her strength to save herself and her husband. She said, “I looked at him and said ‘we’re going to have to climb out of here’. So I had him holding onto the rope and I was telling him where exactly to put his feet and I pushed from his butt to get back out of the crater.” 

Wonder Woman

Acaimie, who is herself just 100 pounds, hiked pulling her husband alone with her, screaming for help all along. Clay, on the other hand, was barely conscious and was vomiting blood all through his way. 

Stronger Together

Acaimie kept telling Clay, “We’re going to have to trust God and we’re going to have to try really hard to stay awake and I know you don’t want to climb but we have to do this and you have to listen to me. We’re going to have to be strong, and we’re going to have to climb out of here.”
