She sounds like a very nice person. I hope by some way she can return home safe. I was wondering if her ex-husband or the father of the children (I don't know if they are his) is involved in the lives of the children, and if she has contact with him. How old are her children? In the article, it mentions a black car parked near her home with the trunk lid open. Is that her car? Or the car of someone searching or investigating? If it's hers, I was wondering why the trunk lid would be open. I feel bad for her children, family, and friends. It must be heartbreaking to not know where she is and if she is OK or not.
