On this tiny beautiful island located
in the Indian ocean between land and sea,nature won against men.
On January 26th, Tangui was
swimming in the ocean when he has been attacked by a bulldog shark.
He was playing in the water with a friend around six in the
afternoon. Suddenly ,a dark shadow appeared in the ocean ;
it was too late to go away. He tried to escape,but it took his leg
and didn’t let go, as his friend stood by his side . Then,
trying to force the animal to open his mouth, he cut two of his
fingers. In the split of a second the shark ate his leg and left .
At this precise moment, a cloud of blood surrounded the twenty-four
year old man. His friend hold him by the shoulder to bring him back
to the shore,as the young man was bleeding ,his phemoral artery
opened. They remainded in the sea and fought for fifteen minutes in
the waves to reach the sand again while the victim’s leg was
severed. And when they did, all the witnesses ran in order to provide
assistance to them.
He stood conscious while he was driven
to the emergency despite of the massive loss of blood which made him
feel weaker and weaker.
Tragically,the doctors couldn’t save
his leg, his phemoral artery had been emptied so it had to be
amputated. As the waiting awakening was ending , all his family came
to see him even if he was asleep. When he woke up ,the first thing
he said was : « so I repaired my bike for nothing
this summer. »
Today, he doesn’t let his disability
win against what he wants to undertake and tries to find a suitable
prothesis –since he has lost his whole leg.he can’t continue his
studies and should consider another route buthas a strengh of mind
that will help him move forward.
