After a few minutes, the face of a young man appeared under the layer of snow. He was wearing a military uniform. His lips were bluish, his breathing barely audible.

With trembling fingers, Anna took out her phone, called an ambulance and rescue workers, while she kept digging, covering the man with her scarf and trying to warm him with her breath.

A few hours later, already in the hospital, the doctors said he had survived as if by a miracle.

An avalanche had covered part of the forest road, and the young man had been trapped under the snow. He had lain there for hours, until Anna happened to stumble upon his hand. And it was only thanks to her that he survived.
