I was afriad it would come to this .... as much as I didn't want it to, the worst that could possibly happen has occurred, and I am scared to death ...

Richard (my ex-husband) has taken our two-year-old son, Wyatt Gage, away from me; Wyatt is now missing and an Amber Alert has been put up on his behalf.  People think that Richard could be capable of doing great harm to Wyatt; he's always had a major problem with anger.  There is no telling what he could do to our son ....

Wyatt has been missing now for over two days; there's been no sign of him (or Richard) anywhere.  Police officials think that Richard and Wyatt may be headed either to Canada or to Mexico, as a way to take Wyatt as far from me as possible.

I have been beside myself: I haven't slept in two days and the thought of eating anything nauseates me.  I don't know what's going to happen, but if Richard harms Wyatt in any way, I don't think I could ever forgive myself.  I've tried to be a good parent, and I've tried my best to keep Richard away from our son except for supervised visits every few weeks.  Well, Richard obviously snapped somewhere along the line and wanted to take revenge, so he kidnapped Wyatt.  And now I am missing my baby and wondering if he will ever be found ... alive ....

Please keep me (and especially Wyatt) in your prayers; I am so shaking-scared I don't know what to do!!  I'm about to go crazy-mad with grief over this!!
