I think the person saying "diuretic" is trying to say she had diarrhea.

A diuretic is a drug or food/drink that dehydrates you.

 

[katydid23]

Ok so it is reported that little aliayah was diuretic, so i'm assuming that means she had a pee accident, but what if it means she lost complete bladder control, what if she'd been injured earlier in the day on friday from mom from dad from an accident, from playing around with a sibling and mom panicked due to earlier run ins with the law..

Or the bladder is a muscle so could aliayah have had a closed head injury that caused her to feel sick and have loss of bladder control..


Just talking out loud.. MOO

I had a similar thought. With the poor baby being sick the night before, I wondered if she might have gotten a hold of some drugs or pills and that is how she got sick. Maybe they were afraid to take her for help because of that. ??

In the transcript it said "diruetic (inaudible)"-so I'm assuming it could also mean diarhea. Perhaps both? If this little one had a fever and was having accidents of whatever kind and was crying (maybe because she was in pain)-perhaps a trip to the ER was in order.
Now, I'm wondering if she was really sick because of cold/flu or because she may have ingested something she got her little hands on!!:banghead:

 

[BeBeBru]

Wow BeBeBru you are fantastic, :hug:

Could you tell me, about approximately how high the window are off the ground in the bedrooms? How large are they and do you know if they slide over to open or up?

And you spoke of a cellar (upthread) what is that like is it dirt floor?

Thanks for the hug....I really appreciate it!!!!

The windows are rectangular and one side of the window slides to cover the other side when it is open. There should be a screen on the open side. I would have to be on a ladder to touch the windows on the side of the house
so I would estimate the height of the window to be around 7 feet. There is also a large picture window on the front of the house that is located in the living room. If one is on the front porch looking thru that window.....the eye would see the living room, kitchen nook and back door. Also, one could stand at an angle with head turned to the right and see the large bedroom door. This bedroom was added to the original house decades ago..... I hope this makes sense......

 

[dsntslp]

Your Awesome momtective!! This helps, I knew one of our super Sleuthers had some picture of the house... and tax appraisers site is a great thought...
:hug:...

Can anybody tell what is on the porch here? A stroller on the left and possibly a wagon (upside down) on the right?

I wonder why the ground level has a rail but the upper level where a child could fall off and get hurt has no rail. Just an observation. It sure isn't how I would have done it. I am wondering if there is a reason and I just don't see it in the pic.

ETA: Ooops, I thought the images that were posted in my quoted post here would come down here too. Brb w/a link to the post.

I do not recall anything in the backyard like toys or a swing set. If I can, I will try to take some pictures of the area and post them. I did not take my camera with me when I went to search on Sunday because there were too many people around and we were focusing on climbing through brush, etc., to search. Plus I just thought it was inappropriate. And, I will pay more attention about the size and height of the windows. When we walk the dog in that area, we go up the other 2 streets since Dennison is a dead end. But most of the houses on Dennison adjoin the other street via their back yards.

 

[dsntslp]

Do they have pets? A dog or cat to chase around and possibly follow out of the house if it got out?

Thank you again and now I am going to double hug you... :hug: :hug:

The windows IMHO would not have been the entry or exit way she left that house.

Therefore the front or back door. across from the front of the house is there another house that faces it and in the back by the rear door does another house face it?

 

[KaylynnCouture]

Does anyone know where they're searching today (the river still?)?

 

[CN2Souls]

WENC and BeBeBru... and any other locals...

We are so happy that you are our Boots on the ground to help us "visualize" the area and home..

Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Much!!! :blowkiss:

 

[elepher50]

Hey elepher and mom....I was able to give the layout on my post #194.....My aunt lived in that house for 40+ years before her death. I have been in that house many times....I tried to get your pic, mom, before my post but my cat
walked across my computer at about the same time......I apologize....I don't know how to fix it now so that the two posts would show together. If someone wants to help, I would appreciate it. I am soooo shocked and sad about this whole story that it has taken a few days for this to settle in so I could be able to post. I still have family in Bendale and have spoken with them. They just can't believe that this beautiful little girl is missing. The whole little community is really torn up about all of this.

I am in constant prayer that this little precious one is still alive and can be found......

You are awesome for doing this - first hand information about the layout - it just does NOT get any better than this. I have to go back and catch your post - quick question though - is there a basement or crawl space under that house?

 

[dsntslp]

Beberu,
Thank you for your input, truly.
Do you happen to know offhand what the temperature of the river is right now or the day she went missing?

Thanks,
Dsn

 

[justbeachy]

Did the mom actually check on her at 6:30? Or did the 9 year old come into bed and TELL her that she was finally sleeping?

And, if Aliayah was crying/fussing all night, was she just left in there with the 9 year old or was the mom taking care of her all night?

I'm still trying to catch up on this case, so sorry if this has been covered.

The upper level isn't a balcony, it's the roof of the house.

 

[terracotta]

If this little sweetie was sick all night and had a fever, the chances of her walking out of the house to go "explore" are slim to none.

 

[terracotta]

I'm hoping that searches are being done in areas that she drove in those two hours. Dumpsters checked etc.

 

[dsntslp]

LOL! No sweetie, I mean the porch itself. See the railing on the left and then the open porch area at the right with no rail? I should have been clearer, lol.

 

[dsntslp]

I hope they halted the trash at the golf course.
I wonder if step-dad took a back pack or any other large container (tool box, cooler?) to work that day. It is amazing how small of a container a child will fit in to begin with but even more amazing is how little room is needed once someone is deceased.
Not accusing, just wondering.

 

[shefner]

I was pregnant with twins...and had two little sons ages 4 and 2 to look after all day. Its not so bad. I went full term with the twins and they were girls. I had 4 children 5 and under and it was a full time job to take care of them. Some nights there was little sleep, especially if one of them was sick. But I would sleep near their beds and check on them through the night. Don't all mothers do this?

If the baby A was sick, it would make sense for the mommy to put a soft pallet by her bed so she could hear her and attend to her through the night.
