## Resource

A Chinese carpenter, Lu Haitao, was miraculously rescued after ten days trapped in a flooded hydropower tunnel in Nepal—just as deadly glacier floods claimed over 1,300 lives. Found 225 meters underground and airlifted to safety, he’s now stable, recounting his harrowing wait and initial disbelief at rescuers’ whistles. His family, including a cousin who used AI to translate Nepali news, endured agonizing uncertainty, sleepless nights, and desperate hope. The rescue—a beacon of luck and perseverance—is a moving testament to human resilience amid catastrophe. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
