Hanging On Despite The Odds

By the last few days, Callahan believed that his time alive was going to end. He was running out of water and the solar stills he had would no longer be able to make ingestible water. It felt like his entire body was about to give up, as was his mind. But it would seem like his life would take another turn, but this time, for the better.

Finally Getting Rescued

When things felt like they were at the final breaking point, on February 18, Callahan was finally spotted off of Guadeloupe by some fishermen. Apparently, the fish guts that he had tossed over the raft had caused fish and birds to drift all around him. Thankfully, the fishermen thought to take a look at the raft that was floating by them, and when they saw him, they found a skeletal, majorly dehydrated but alive, Steven Callahan.
