It is believed that she was buried in the ruins of her kitchen, and rescued two days later. It is thought that she had returned to the ruins of her house within a few day, and was subsisting there with occasional food from neighbours.
At the time of her hospitalisation she weighed less than 35 kg, less than half the average weight of a woman of her build, and her muscles were frozen in a foetal position, but she was expected to recover.
