It's early, the roads are calm when we arrive to the stop for Crystal Morrison, their awaits her law officials and her family, as we drive in I think of her, her life and son the most. It's a clear day and the reality sets in of the loss we have felt so far from the prior stops, it becomes heavy for a moment. We are greeted in full force and the mood is up lifting. We fall right into the program set by the family and wrapping up with pictures and feeling accomplished in our quest.
We are still searching for her, matter of fact I leave knowing CUE is coming back in two weeks so you feel different because everyone knows we will be back together very soon. It's not like the last few stops when the families are requesting you to get back and search again or are sad because they know you just came and it might be while before its their turn again. That is the main thing that bothers me the most as a searcher and an advocate for the missing, to know that you cannot be everywhere all the time and search every single day for those lost, which brings comfort to those left behind suffering. I pray for more help, more organizations that will do more, we need more help on the ground, real help!
So now here we have a mother who is lost from her son, a daughter from her father, a sister and the list goes on and on just with one family unit. I find myself wondering with the thousands of people that missing people touch each day how can it not be more than the silent crisis it is?
