Scores of international rescuers descended on the Morca cave system last week as the plan to save Dickey took shape. The speleologist, or cave expert, was hit with gastric pain that turned into bleeding and vomiting over a week ago while helping to chart the cave system ? the country's third deepest and sixth longest ? leaving him stuck well below the surface.
Rescuers finally reached him around the middle of last week, and a long, slow ascent began. As of Monday, nearly 200 people from seven European countries and Turkey ? including fellow cavers and medics ? were working to save Dickey.
Rescuers transporting the explorer have already zig-zagged a path higher than New York's Empire State Building.
