Update lang on FPMEE team climbing Cho Oyu.. The team made it to the summit plateau but had to turn back 100 meters from the true summit because of the strong winds and fist-sized hailstones. The team only started using oxygen at 7,000 meters, while Karina Dayondon went all the way without oxygen. Regie Pablo has frostbitten fingers. All of them are now safely in Kathmandu where Regie will get medical treatment. They hope to return to Manila Thursday or Friday next week. www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryId=52939
