I do certainly hope and pray that Madeleine is returned to her parents safely - you know, there is a God and he is going to put his hand on someone in order to direct the parents to their daughter. There might be evil people in the world but the good people will come through for the Mccanns. Let us not forget Madeleine - please. God Bless.

I totally agree with Vivienne. I do the same and I hope and pray for the same outcome.

I do sincerely hope there will be a very happy ending and that little Madeleine will soon be back with her loving parents. I admire Gerry and Kate who are doing everything possible to have Madeleine back with them. I shall certainly celebrate if Madeleine is found safe and well. Let us hope this will happen very soon, it will be such a relief to her parents.

Every morning the first thing I do is go to my daily paper to see if there is any good news in respect of Maddie and her family. One morning I know that I will see the news that I and thousands of other people are waiting for, that Maddie is alive and well and back in the arms of her mother, father and siblings. One day God will answer all our prayers for you. Until that day comes, I wish you love and will not stop thinking about your dreadful plight.

(possible information?)
Here in the Canary Islands we have had children dissappear too! Jasmine 10 and Jeremi 7, from Gran Canaria and there is belief that there is a Russian Gang going around kidnapping children, but not to sell them, but to sell their organs...as horrible and morbid as it sounds (and i dont mean to cause disturbance or worry!) There was and alert to the Canary Islands about it and even we have posters everywhere for young Madelaine McCann as well as Yasmine and Yeremi.

There is so much support going to the McCanns, and i really admire their strength and determination, love conquers all and keeping your faith is what will bring her home to you both. You are in our thoughts and the worlds too. You are not alone!
We hope, we Pray, we love

what I wrote was about other text, where you wrote that " the refusal of the main airport, in Lisbon, to publicise the search" was because of tourism: I think this is not truth.

Leigh in Taiwan, that was beautifully said and mirrors exactly my views of this case.
The pain of your child missing must be unbearable, and the least all of us can do is not to utter any useless negative comments about a couple that is doing everything to get their beautiful daughter back despite their obvious mental and physical exhaustion. If you don't agree with them, just let them be and get on with your own life.
My thoughts are with Maddie and her family from morning to night and with all my heart I wish that they will be reunited soon! Please please please let her come home!

the problem here is not tourism... you need to be cool and think!
the problem is different: it is to understand how powerful are the paedophyl network all over the world, including in your country.

I really trust that people can just be supportive to this case. It is so terribly disheartening to read peoples negative responses to two people desperately looking for their daughter. As a mother, it is inconceivable for me to even consider how petrified I would be should either of my children ever be taken from me - what a shocking violation. Let us take stock of what life is all about and pull together as citizens of the world. Let us learn compassion and kindness. If you don't support the McCann's then focus your attention elsewhere but at least take a look at your own life very carefully before you offer any critisism.
