A man describes his harrowing, 129-hour ordeal after being trapped in the rubble of the earthquake in Syria. Plus, Hollywood star and sex symbol Raquel Welch dies at 82, and a mom with obsessive-compulsive disorder describes what it's like to be a parent with mental illness.
Raquel Welch, one of Hollywood's most enduring and beloved sex symbols, died at 82 yesterday after a brief illness, her spokesperson confirmed to NBC News. Welch starred in dozens of films and made frequent guest-star appearances on television. Her role as a prehistoric woman in a deerskin bikini in the 1966 movie "One Million Years B.C." became one of the iconic posters of that era. Welch also won a Golden Globe in 1974 for her role in "The Three Musketeers."
Ibrahim Zakaria, 23, didn't know if he was alive or dead when he became trapped under a five-story building in the Syrian town of Jableh following a 7.8-magnitude earthquake on Feb. 6. "I thought I was dreaming," he told Today.com through an interpreter. Zakaria shared the frightening story of how he survived being pinned down amid rubble and debris for five days following the earthquake that has killed more than 40,000 in Syria and Turkey. After wrenching his legs free, breaking them in the process, he licked a nearby wall for water before rescuers found him, 129 hours later. His mother survived, but his sister did not. "Everything is gone. I lost the ability to walk. It will take time to recover." Read the full story here.
Candace Powell shares in a powerful essay what it's like to raise her two children, Lilliana, 16, and Sullivan, 11, while living with obsessive-compulsive disorder. She describes their patience when she's rearranging 29 jars of peanut butter over and over or endlessly sweeping the floor and wiping counters instead of playing with them. "They’re the ones who grab me by the hand and remind me that I am OK — I am loved," she writes. Her children have also supported her as she's tried numerous therapies without much success. "Not once have they complained, judged, or reprimanded me," she writes. "If anything, (it has) taught them how to sympathize with those unlike themselves and how to truly be an ally to someone in need." Read the full essay here.

Daily Delight
A little pick-me-up before you go.
It's just a dog treat, people! Nothing else to see here. Wisconsin mom Melissa Czinner couldn't help but share her 7-year-old daughter's special Valentine's Day drawing on TikTok to the delight of the internet. She immediately noticed a special feature of the woman who Henley drew walking a dog. Henley said the shape protruding from the dog walker's pants was simply a doggie snack in the girl's pocket. "I noticed it right away and was thinking the worst," Melissa told TODAY.com. Melissa captioned the video "just a dog treat in a pocket" and the commenters had plenty of fun with it. The jury ruled it a masterpiece, as Henley's drawing now hangs proudly on the family's refrigerator.
