Newborn’s breath fuels mother’s will to survive Venezuela earthquake rubble rescue
A Venezuelan mother, Dayana Patino, and her 18‑day‑old son Juan David were pulled from rubble after twin earthquakes devastated Venezuela, with Dayana drawing strength from her baby as she stayed awake and breathing; the rescue—captured on video—left their La Guaira home destroyed, Dayana with injuries to both legs and Juan David with minor injuries, while her husband Gerson survived and vowed to rebuild as the country mourns more than 1,450 deaths and thousands missing.
