TL;DR Summary

The Colombian mother, whose four children survived 40 days in the Amazon jungle, was alive for four days after a plane crash, according to the oldest child's father. The mother likely told the children to leave her to survive before she died. The children, aged 13, 9, 4, and 1, were found alive by authorities on Friday, over a month after the small plane crashed in the jungle. They survived by eating cassava flour. The siblings are undergoing treatment at a military hospital in Bogota, Colombia, and have started detailing their ordeal.
