06/10/2003: "Mountaineer begins painful recovery, plans to spread survival story"
Aron Ralston says he is in pain.
Ralston has fielded calls from publicists, media and movie agents after freeing himself from a boulder by cutting off his arm.
But it's not the kind of pain one would expect for a man who hacked off his own arm after being pinned under a boulder for six days in a Utah desert canyon. Not the pain expected of an active outdoorsman whose cremated arm now sits in a box next to his bed in a basement room at his parents' Centennial home. (Denver Post)
