Today is a little girl's birthday who should be celebrating her 10th birthday (12th May) and probably doesn't know because she was snatched from her parents nearly 5 years ago and has not yet been found.
Madeleine McCann disappeared on the evening of Thursday, 3 May 2007. She was on holiday in the Algarve region of Portugal with her family. She went missing from an apartment, in the central area of the resort of Praia da Luz, a few days before her fourth birthday, and has still not been found.
I can not think about the pain Madeleine's parents and family go through on a daily basis. Waiting for answers, living in hope that the phone will ring to tell them that there beautiful little girl has been found.
ONLY the public can help.Where were you on the evening of Thursday, 3 May 2007 and the days after it? Did you ever witness anything that may be able to bring this little girl back to her parents and her family?Have you seen this little girl recently?
