Do they live near town or in a rural area? Crazy that he just disappeared from home. So are they searching streets or forests? Is there a place that he likes? Somewhere he would feel comfortable?

Been praying for this sweet little boy. He may have hidden himself somewhere really close to his house.

Firefighters drained a one-acre pond at the family’s home Monday night but did not find anything.

“We have searched on the ground, we have searched by boat, we have searched the lake, the ponds, we’ve had OHP and their helicopters come in,” McIntosh County Emergency Management Director Susan Whittle said.

Well, that is good news that he wasn't in the closest lakes and ponds---that was my first fear. Could he be hiding somewhere, and safely snugged in?

How cold is it at night in Emerald Bay?

I looked earlier, 70s during the day, 60s at night this week. A bad storm is coming tomorrow, though. Too cold to be out with no shoes or clothes on.

The more time that goes by the more afraid I am. Especially with the way Zaiven is ‘dressed’ (or not dressed). 60 degrees is pretty chilly with nothing more than a diaper. Oh how I wish they’d find him tucked away somewhere in his home, safe and warm. Prayers offered up.

Looking at where I believe this to be, one pond is sadly the least of the worries. There is a very large lake nearby, Lake Eufaula.

His mother, BH, shared this statement with me:

“Given the circumstances, all I ask is for everyone to be vigilant and to please not give up. My son is deeply missed and loved and all we want is for him to be home. I want to thank the community…

As of 6:30PM 4/12/22 - McIntosh Co. Sheriff said they’re concentrating their search near the Emerald Bay area & have boats on patrol on Eufaula Lake.

His home is less than 0.5 miles from the lake, per the Sheriff’s Office.


The Sheriff said boats will come off the water & officers will be out of the woods once it’s dark.

OHP, McIntosh Co. Sheriff’s Office, Lighthorse Police & others are out helping with this search including local fire & paramedics.

If one were to look up the mother's Facebook page one might see some unfortunate news. I don't know if I'm allowed to link it because it's not MSM.

It's always in the water. People with autism are just drawn to it. Rest well, little man.

This is absolutely heartbreaking... Zaiven and Kyuss, both 4, in less than 24 hours....
