#blogging4madeleine

When I was asked to do this blog as part of the campaign #blogging4madeleine I was initially delighted to be able to do something to help, then I was completely over whelmed by the task. The enormity of the interest that surrounds this story is daunting to say the least, but regardless of everything else, finding Madeleine is the only thing that really matters. What we hope to achieve today through the #blogging4madeleine campaign is to make people aware of the ongoing find Madeleine campaign and to circulate the new age progression image, as most people still associate Madeleine McCann with the picture of a 3 year old child and today she is 9 years old.

I read Kate’s book at the beginning of the year and it was heart breaking, regardless of people's views, opinions, theories on the McCann’s, the facts are that a 3 year old girl was taken from her bed and she is still missing and I hope that today we help a little in the search for her and for the truth.

Whilst Madeleine is still missing, it is incomprehendable to me, that we should stop looking for her. If anything were to happen to one of my beautiful daughters I would expect that “no stone would be left unturned” in the search for her and whoever committed this dreadful crime would be brought to justice.

My little girl is 3 on the 19th May and her whole world revolves around Mummy, Daddy, baby sister and cuddle blanket, the thought of her being snatched away from us is unthinkable. 

What is even more unthinkable is that people would give up on her.

We should not give up on this little girl and even though she is the most recognisable missing person face in the UK this does not mean that the rest of The World know her face as well as we do.

If you know where Madeleine is now or who was involved in her abduction, or if you were in Praia da Luz around the time of Madeleine’s abduction (3rd May 2007) and have not spoken to anyone in the police, please contact Operation Grange or Crimestoppers using the contact details below.

It's never too late to do the right thing!
