Feb. 24 (UPI) -- Today show host Savannah Guthrie posted a video Tuesday announcing a $1 million reward from the family for the return of her kidnapped mother, Nancy Guthrie.

Guthrie posted the video on Instagram, in which she asked the public for help in finding her mother after she was kidnapped on Jan. 31.

Through tears, Guthrie said, "every hour and minute and every long night has been agony since then, worrying about her, fearing for her, aching for her, And most of all, just missing her, just missing her."

But she and her family believe her mother will come home alive, which would be "a miracle," she said.
