Dear Mods and Members -

I apologize for my mistakes and posting from a "social site." Thank you for your patience with me. Perhaps, I better just read here for a bit longer before I continue to post.

Oh my goodness, please don't stop posting! I've had several of my posts removed because I unknowingly broke the rules. Mods are always here to help us and remind us---not chastise us with cruelty....they are consistently helpful to those who are learning, as I am certainly still doing! Post away!!

Very true. I do worry about recurrence for her, though, since she had secondary lung cancer after her initial bout with the bone cancer in her leg. I can't imagine not taking my child for at least semi-annual checkups with an oncologist or appropriate specialist (even if I were broke and had to beg for her to be seen). Of course, it's possible she was taken for appropriate medical care.

However, if EB were abusing Zahra as badly as those around them would have us believe, EB may have not wanted her to be enrolled in school or to see any doctor whatsoever for fear she might tell on her. In that case, I could see an infection or a cancer recurrence (or any other illness) being neglected out of selfishness.

I think until we know something, these kinds of thoughts are gonna be floating around. It's really hard to say what would be the worst case scenario out of all we've wondered about here. If she is gone, I almost hope she was overdosed and fell asleep peacefully. What a horrid thing to even think...but compared to some other scenarios, definitely the lesser of evils.

If she were regularly seeing a doctor or having the prosthesis checked and/or replaced LE wouldn't need the medical information from Australia. It's quite possible she received immunizations for school here in the U.S. and nothing more. And if she didn't receive the necessary health care here in the U.S., both AB/EB are, at the very least, negligent. MOO

The police removed her mattress, bed frame and bags of "evidence."

What took them so long?
Also, what did they find?? Now they want her parents DNA, Zahra's medical records. etc. Maybe this is just routine but I am left wondering. :waitasec:

The "ransom" note said "WE have your daughter"

I think they found the leg...

ITA I think it was found and the reason it went from amber alert to homicide so quickly, also why LE was so upset MOO

I agree i dont think they have any medical records at all. What if this child didnt have cancer ? what if these ppl said she did and when ppl came to investigate they got rid of her.....

I would like some medical records to say she had cancer.

there are ppl out there that exploit their kids for monitary gain!

I think this is what the LE are looking for!
