Thank you, this gives me a far better idea of what is going on.You can find some of those answers here: Log into Facebook
I'd love to be able to discuss more but the information only seems to be available from family and friends on social media and not picked up by mainstream news yet...
one of the potential issues with PWS is tooth decay.If I understand the level of assistance the missing person needs, I can only speculate that she is either being held by someone, has passed as a result of being on her own in the elements, or there is foul play.
It seems highly unlikely (given the description of her disability), that she would be able to self-sustain for so long.
I hope that LE is/has interviewed anyone who had access to her.
BTW, was there ever any explanation as to how her two front teeth are missing? There may be a reasonable explanation, but I find it quite concerning.
Amateur opinion and speculation
BBMI think this is the first time we've heard anything from a family member in MSM? And first time they've acknowledged her exact disability.
I wonder if she takes medication for PWS that would be critical for her. Googling mentions hormone therapy but that's about it.
A few others:Here is a case of a missing woman with the same syndrome.

Candice needs to be found!
*Food surely is the key to finding her. Upthread mom stated:
“She’s always hungry,” I’m curious if mom thought Candice had an issue with overeating. Was her food intake monitored or controlled?
If left uncontrolled and untreated, morbid obesity can develop, potentially leading to life-threatening heart and lung complications, diabetes, high blood pressure (hypertension), and to other serious complications. The compulsion to eat is so overwhelming that people with this disorder, if left unsupervised, may endanger themselves by eating harmful food such as spoiled food or garbage and excessive quantities, harmful to the stomach. Affected children may also exhibit unusual behaviors regarding food including hoarding and/or foraging for food, stealing food, and stealing money to buy food.

@rosesfromangels The missing two front teeth are concerning. Candice is only 34. Usually any tooth loss from age or decay would begin with teeth toward the back. Assumption is always dangerous, but I have to conclude it would have had to be injury related... what happened?
- Food craving and weight gain. A classic sign of Prader-Willi syndrome is a constant craving for food, resulting in rapid weight gain, starting around age 2 years. Constant hunger leads to eating often and consuming large portions. Unusual food-seeking behaviors, such as hoarding food, or eating frozen food or even garbage, may develop.

grandma, I would have thought so too. I don't know much about PWS but this case has been educating me.[Snipped for focus by tlcya]
