First Christmas Without Madeline McCann: how must they feel?

Well said. My thoughts are with all of them too.

There are other children and families just as deserving of your thoughts and who you might also be able to financially help too. Maybe even somebody you know? Not so self-indulgent perhaps as the ‘McCann Brand’ but more worthy of Christmastide.

Madeline is unlikely to be alive and perpetuating the myth that she is is unlikely to help anybody.

What about the news of the Private Detectives knowing her wherabouts and hopefully returning her to her parents by Christmas?

its really sad

who would do such a sad thing

who ever it is are sick

My heart goes out to Madeline but these two pigs you want to call parents don’t deserve sympathy…what they deserve are charges brought forth for neglect

I wish the same thing. Please… already has been too much suffering of this family.

I absolutly agree, unfortunatly we cannot turn back the clock. ALL my thought, hopes and prayers are with little Madeleine, her mother, father, brother, sister and extended family this Christmas.

No worries, Metodo3 have said they know where she is and she’ll be home for Christmas.

Surely we all believe everything that Team McCann says in this case?

So there is absolutely no cause for alarm.

I feel sorry for the wee girl, but her parents are cold-blooded liars, at best.

For Kathy Urchik:

If you look at the background of the Private Detectives they are as unsuited to the task and lacking in credibility as the removed Portuguese detective investigating the case. Unfortunately, as in many other areas, the McCanns have wasted significant money on detective agency fees which could have gone to more worthwhile causes. They need to accept that if Madeline was not killed in the apartment (otherwise how would her ‘limp body’ be carried away?)all of the publicity would frighten any abductor into killing her and disposing of the body, like all the other cases of child abduction. What I would like to know is why you all think that Madeline is more worthy of your grief than countless other missing and damaged children? It is not as if you know her or the family, you only know about her from the media. Is it because she is cute? Log on to some of the children’s charities working in West Africa where arms and legs have been amputated. And donate £10 to help. That is a positive way to celebrate Christmas. I hate to say it but ANY expression of grief from people who have not had direct contact with the McCanns is not mentally healthy (I speak as a mental health nurse). It is living in the same sort of fantasy world as people who believe that characters from ‘The Archers’ are real people. Live your life – make a difference – forget the McCanns.

Boy oh boy, if I am ever in need of mental health assistance, I hope Kathy Urchik will not be assigned to my care! Geeeez, come down a few notches! There is nothing wrong with caring, hoping and praying for someone in need, whether or not you know them personally. We all have our own passions and if yours is children in West Africa, then bless you for it, but we are all different, sharing different heartaches & passions. Show some kindness, “that is a positive way to celebrate Christmas”.

Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays Lori Bond

You too, Kathy! :=)

My thoughts never leave Maddie’s situation. I research others too so don’t get on the band wagon. I feel for all children but maybe right at this moment it is for Maddie because she was taken to a foregin country on a famiy holiday that was supposed to be the start of celerbrations for her. Madeleine has missed her Birthday,Starting school and now Christmas. Maddie has missed her life with her family and her siblings more so than anything. Her idea of a family holiday was the begining of her worst nightmare. She would have woken up to a room of strangers scared and not knowing what to do only to past off from one person to another. Maddie is a tiny little soul and this is unfair for all children. Do you know how many millions of people now know of many other stolen children because of the publicity for Maddie. Everyone who has learnt of Maddie also knows of at least one more child, most people get hooked on knowledge and have research all missing children available on the web. Madelene’s publicity has infact done the world a great justice and opened many closed eyes.

My thoughts will be with ALL the McCann family and I so pray you have your baby back with you soon.
