On that day, Aron’s arm was caught under a 360-kilo rock
that fell on him when he was climbing by himself in the
mountains. Because he could not free his arm, she stayed
there for five days and hoped that someone would find him.
But when his water ran out, he knew that he would have to do
something to save his own life. He was not ready to die that
day. So he used his knife to cut off half his right arm. Then,
with his left arm, he bandaged himself so that he would not
lose too much blood. After that, he climbed down the
mountain to find help.

After losing his arm, he wrote a book called Between a
Rock and a Hard Place. This means being in a difficult
situation that you cannot seem to get out of. In this
book, Aron tells of the importance of making good
decisions, and of being in control of one’s life. His love
for mountain climbing is so great that he kept on
climbing mountains even after this experience.
Do we have the same spirit as Aron Let’s think about it
before we find ourselves “between a rock and a hard
place”, and before we have to make a decision that
could mean life or death.
