Gavin has been retained in Europe by his father since December 2005. He is the full-blooded brother to my 5 year old son. We have tried desperately to come to an agreement with their father. This is what any divorce book will tell you to do. I am exhausted today. I found out from my husband's 24 year old mistress, that my husband is on the run again. It makes everything more difficult of course, trying to deal with all the government agencies and paperwork.
My brother, a wise old soul, told me that it's time to "burn the midnight oil" and that he is willing to start a fund for my Folger's Crystals to keep me propelling in the right direction. There are no words for the sorrow we feel every day and night. We miss our little friend more than a person can explain in words.
My hope one day, once this nightmare comes to an end, is to start a non profit that helps families like mine get their children returned home. I have fought hard and fair to ensure that everyone in the end is happy. Now, I fight only for my children - that one day they both can live and play together under the same roof.
International parental child abduction is the most cruel thing that a parent can do to the left behind parent and child. This is his nature, we have unfortunately come to find out. He has another unwanted child on the way that he will not provide for. Another woman that he will leave for the next. I want this cycle to stop for the sake of these innocent children, who are brought into this world out of what we believe is love. What once seemed like love, was really a game. We are all played.
I am here to express my thoughts and to seek others that are going through this hell. There are not enough hours in a day, and not enough response from the governmental agencies. In fact, the Consulate of the U.S., may even assist the evildoer in getting away with this crime. I will not stop fighting even after my child is at home where belongs. I will not stop fighting for any left behind parent or child.
Thank you for listening, I feel strong enough again to fight my battle.

Your son does not appear in the database of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (USA) as a missing child. That said, if you need assistance with the European aspects of your case, you are welcome to write to us.
