I read this last night, hoping it was finally a case of abuse with a somewhat happy ending. I read anxiously through the days, as my stomach sank with each..."Angel had a not so good day." I was unable to continue when I saw her photo in her Easter outfit. Why God, why? I pray for her. Words are inadequate. I want to help her still, and will. I pray there is still hope. I love you beautiful Maddie. What incredible bravery and spirit you have. Should you have to leave us sweet girl, you will surely be one of God's brightest, beautiful angels. I Love You
