@@raylenenielsen5943 It's the disappearance of Melissa Highsmith. She was kidnapped in 1971 in Texas, when she was a toddler, by someone posing as a baby sitter.
My child was kidnapped and was missing for 8 days and it nearly ended me. I cannot imagine the fear, guilt and pain and loss of hope they were feeling after 50 years! The intense feelings of joy and so many other feelings cannot even put into words when your child is found, that they must feel after finding their child this many years later. My heart hurts and is happy for them all at once. It is not an easy feeling to explain until you’ve been there. It is like nothing else you will ever experience in your life the fear, the hope, the loss of hope and eventually the pain and grief and acceptance that you may never see your child again then finally to have them in your arms again alive and safe. There’s just no words to explain that feeling properly. I’m so happy for these parents and this woman that they were reunited and they can start to build memories together. ❤
This is truly amazing! Kidnapped as a toddler and 51 years later is reunited with her parents! It's amazing that her parents are still living. How was she found, who took her? What kind of life did she have with her captors? I'm really happy that they got to see their little girl again and that she was received with such unreserved love. Depending on her age when she was taken, she wouldn't even have known her parents names or possibly even her own (or her last name, at least) and would have forgotten them. But children aren't usually take for innocent reasons, I would like to hear her story and how they were reunited 51 years later But this is a heart touching reunion ❤
No...sadly, for some of us who had horrible 'mothers,' we are far better off without them. For us, this is a reminder of what we never had. But, we survived in spite of them. How good GOD is to bring them together again. ❤
@@plumbustootshe was still lucky that her parents are alive. Two things can be true at the same time. 1. She’s super unlucky she got kidnapped for such a long time 2. She’s lucky she got to still meet her parents after being freed. Those two points are not mutually exclusive, you can be lucky with one thing and unlucky with another
Heartbreaking to be sure, but thankfully it wasn't a *whole* lifetime. The three of them did get to know and love each other while there is still time. ♥️
I prefer being happy about the fact that they got the chance to meet again. Her parents don't have to leave this earth without knowing what happened to their little girl. A lot of parents never get to see their kidnapped kids again.
My birth mother found me when I was 29. I was stolen when I was 1yrs old. This happened to more people than anyone realizes. Some of us don't even know. Some of us don't live that long. My birth mother is gone now. I was blessed to have met her and had time with her before she left.
@mysharonarose She knew the people who took me. But didn't know where. So when she had money to hire somebody, they did a state by state search. I was born in the West. Was taken to the east. My name was changed too. I was driving when I got the call. Was a bit of a shock to say the least. Had a woman on the phone saying she was my mom, while my "mother" was sitting next to me in the car. I said the woman's name out loud, my "mother" whom was next to me flipped out. That told me something was up.
I'm so happy for her parents to know that she is alive and well. It would have been so sad if she came back too late and they had passed away not knowing what happened to her.
There should never be a statute of limitations on kidnapping a child. Laws need to be changed, this woman and her family deserve justice and peace. Glad they found each other.
A lot of the parents that adopted these kids had no idea they were stolen. They were agencies that worked with low income places that would tell the mom the baby died during child birth but some remember hearing baby crying it’s awful. I have had patients tell me about it or they was young and their family sent them to these labor houses they would stay there as soon as they start showing and come back the day the baby is born but never allowed to see the baby
In my country Vietnam, we have a show called “As if we never apart…” that reunited Vietnamese people who was kidnapped/separated from family during the Vietnam War for almost 80 years. If you know Vietnamese you will like that show 😊
I’m right there with you Bro on the Jesus front! I thank and praise my Lord and Savior _everyday_ because of all He has done for me. He has seen me through so many rough times. He’s protected me from myself in times of foolishness. He has carried me throughout my life in times when it seems all hope is lost. He protected my mind, heart, and spirit just recently when someone in my life attempted to trigger a panic attack so that I would accept their alcoholism. I had prayed vigorously before broaching the topic. Jesus kept me so calm and peaceful inside, when it used to be that the guilt tactics and deflections would have sent me into a crying, shaking mess. I cannot be more grateful to Him. The person I “confronted” about their problem, despite saying some incredibly hurtful things, has so far attended 2 AA meetings. I just got done thanking God that you have a loving family and support each other. I also thanked Him for His never-ending goodness to us. We truly have a great God in Jesus! 🙌🥰🙌 ✝️ 🙌🥰🙌
That makes no sense- you’ve mixed 2 things up. Don’t give up hope and tell people you love them every day as you don’t know if it will be the last time you see them.
If I lost one of my children… that search would never end. My love would never fade. My heart is so full that the three of them were able to meet b4 anyone passed.
“Melissa was a toddler when she was abducted from her Fort Worth, Texas, home on Aug. 23, 1971 by a person posing as a babysitter. Melissa grew up just 10 minutes away from her biological family, raised as Melanie Miyoko, and ran away from home at the age of 15.” "I wasn't allowed to go outside and play, or she always sheltered me," she says. "And she said the reason she sheltered me was because I was born at home and that I had brain damage."
Oh my GOD how cruel So happy , Beautiful lady you have SURVIVED , such EVIL PLEASE PLEASE JUST “ SOAK UP “ your parents LOVE & HUGS & with GODS GRACE, just alllll of you be HAPPY WHILE THEY & you all STILL !!!! Have TIME , to be HAPPY & LOVING 🙏❤️
@@opalcollier8325I'm surprised that the police or the F.B.I. didn't check the homes near by. The basement is the first place to check. Was one of the kidnapper still alive?
@@SunscreenSmoocherit doesn’t say kidnapped, it says taken. And anyway the point is that statistically it shouldn’t be possible to be reunited after 51 years, this is such a unique story, basically…. 😐
So happy that their daughter has been found such a beautiful and amazing story Why I'm crying I guess it's tears of joy for this family. Thank you God for this blessing for this family.💕💙💓💜💖💗💞💞💚🤗
This took my breath away. Her parents had given up hope long ago. I would love to see her story. My tears are joyful ones. When she said, “Is that my momma?”, it completely broke me down.
Wow! The strength of her parents to endure such hardship and heartache. I don't know that I wouldn't have lost my mind if anything happened to my daughter. The rivers running from my eyes at the joy of their reunion.
Wow. Amazing that her parents were able to see their child again, and vise versa. No matter how old I get, I will always want my Mama❤ I would like to know more about this story.
"No matter how old I get, I will always want my Mama." Me, too. Sadly, my Mama's in heaven. She's been gone nearly 10 years. I'd give anything to have even just one more day with her. I miss you, Mama. 😭
Stupid statue of liminations. Saying she can't be arrested because of it. I think they need change that old ass rule and make kidnappers, killers, criminals have none so they don't get away with it.
Even more sad that she was raised by people she didn't know weren't her actual family. I bet she felt she didn't fit into that family and was sadly relieved to find out the truth.
This story really is unbelievable! It’s so heartbreaking that a couple lost their child all those years ago! Oh, the memories they could have had… But on the other side, I am so glad that she was reunited with her parents. Much love ❤
Its sad but at the same time is beautiful that god give this poor parents extended time to make memories and love her how they will give her the love bless god.
Oh my god!!! I couldn’t imagine ever going through something like that!!! As a child but especially as a parent. Always wondering where your child is .. if she’s alive and being taken care of and loved ….. I would never want to let her go!! This is both extremely heartbreaking and heartwarming all at the same time
I’m so glad for them z you know they thought she was dead a long time ago so to find out she isn’t and be able to hold her must be the greatest gift. I hope they have the time and ability to make more memories together than they lost ❤
Even that man in the brown jacket is getting choked up and teary! How amazing she got to reunite with her parents while they were both still alive. Now they can rest easy knowing their baby is back!!😢
I cannot imagine how terrible that would have been for all of them...but then to find one another again after 51 years would have been so joyful. Blessings on you all for the rest of your lives, and may you share still wonderful experiences.💞🙏💙
😢so beautiful my heart is so emotionally torn from joy and happiness seeing this. . I cant imagine the pain her parents felt 51 years ago. Nor there child. Wow blessings to this family 🙏
She was taken at 22 months old in 1971 by a babysitter in Texas. She tried many times to find her true family with DNA but never got a match and was discouraged. Her children's DNA was matched to her biological sister and from there she found her parents
@@Chicago_Cabbie no she wasn't told and was raised very sheltered by her abducter. She was told she has brain damage from.being born at home as their excuse to keep her isolated. She ran away from them at age 15. I double checked just now and it was her bio father who searched for her as well and was his DNA matched finally to one of her children and that's how she found out she was abducted. She was raised only 10 minutes from her bio family! She changed her name back to the one she was given at birth and is happily reunited with her bio family
OMG! I can't even imagine what all of them went through! This is by far one of The Best Videos I've Ever Seen! 💗💞😘✌️ I'm sending More Love Than Ya'll Know! Congratulations! I hope Ya'll Keep The Love Going On! If this is fake, shame on whoever put this video up!
