I can't bear to think what little Maddy's parents must be going through at this time. Whenever I think of her I remember the incident when a young blond haired boy who went missing in Greece a few years ago while he was on holiday and he was never found.

It's even more frustrating that there is little news about trying to find her coming from the police in Portugal. I would have thought they would have thought they'd have holiday makers out searching for her when she was first discovered missing, but perhaps they have different procedures for dealing with missing children.

What ever information and leads the police are following up on let's just pray that Maddy is found alive and can be reunited with her family.
