Some thing very sad

I'm going to start today with something very sad, but very important. A 4-year old British girl was abducted from her bedroom while on vacation in Portugal with her parents. The details are all over the news, so I'm not going to go into them more here. Suffice it to say that after nearly two weeks she has not been found and there appear to be few clues as to what happened to her. As a parent I can't begin to imagine what little Madeleine's family are going through. There seems to be a good possibility that she was abducted to order and may have had her appearance changed. She could, by now, be almost anywhere in the world. Little Madeleine has one very distinctive feature that is extremely rare, and would be very difficult to disguise. She has what is known as a 'flash' in her right eye - the black part of her pupil extends out into the color of her iris. You can read more about the story and see a picture of Madeleine at the BBC news site here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6652611.stm Whoever has Madeleine can change her hair length and color and do other things to disguise her, but they can't change that very rare flash in her eye. So if you see a child with such a distinctive marking, please don't hesitate. Contact your local police immediately. Better to risk a few false alarms if they might help reunite Madeleine with her family.
