Little Madeleine - she could be anywhere

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Think back to all the things you've done during the last 4 weeks.

Then take time out to think of Gerry and Kate McCann.

This is how long it has been since their precious daughter was taken from them - 4 weeks

Sadly, I am still having to **bump** this thread

The latest train of thought is that Madeleine was kidnapped for a ransom but the kidnapper has been scared off by all the publicity and is keeping her in hiding until it all dies down a bit.......

Still keeping this little girl in my thoughts and prayers. I really do hope they have some leads soon, sadly it sounds as if there aren't many (good) ones. I saw an interview with the parents on tv, and they are trying to remain positive and still believe that their little girl will be found. They are also in my thoughts and prayers.

At the beginning of all this I said I would bump this thread until Madeleine is found so apologies but here it is again

**bump**

I didn't watch the McCann's interview on Crimewatch last night but hope it brings results

The whole thing is heartbreaking for sure and I imagine the parents are going through a living hell right now. As I see how much attention this is getting in the news, though, it makes me hurt for the many other families who are going through this same situation and their stories are of no interest to the media.

Her parents and all their friends and relatives are the ones keeping the media machine going.

I keep bumping this thread because I said I would and I guess that I'm a bit superstitious about stopping it

*bump* sorry

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Was on the news today that a call had been made to police by someone claiming to know where Madeleine is.........its a sad indictment on the world we live in that this call appears to be a hoax

[Pawsitive Thinking]

As this thread appears to have gone as cold as the trail in the hunt for Madeleine the next time I post will be to say that she has been found

Keeping you in my thoughts, little girl

OMG, I hope this is not true!!!!

The police are treating this seriously. Here is an excerpt from the Guardian, dated 2 hrs ago:

"Officers in Portugal are investigating the letter's claims and are poised to visit Odiaxere. Dutch police said part of the reason the letter was being taken so seriously was because it was similar to one sent to the same newspaper last June following the disappearance from the city of Liege, in Belgium, of two girls: Stacy Lemmens, seven, and Natalie Mahy, 10.

In that case the author claimed to know where the girls had been buried. The children's bodies were found two weeks later in a storm drain near a railway crossing a short distance from the location identified in the letter."

Prayers for Madeleine and her parents.

That is the part that makes me fear the worst!! My heart goes out to her parents in these difficult hours.
