O/T my hubby's nephew has an artificial leg..........looks like a regular leg.
He says it hurts all the time.
He gets blisters and water pouches at his nub.
He uses oils and lamb skin, everything someone tells him.
He can only stand and use it so many hours out of a day.
He has had many over the years.
He lost his leg at 14.....now about 40 yrs old.
So, like anything, they can hurt, like a shoe that rubs wrong.
Poor Zahra............

Deal said there was nothing specific to lead searchers to the pond. He said law enforcement wanted to be thorough in the efforts to find Zahra.

Local 10pm news (WSOC & WBTV) has LE calling off search in Burke County (again). Pond was drained with no results.

(After reading these pages for two days I was finally able to contribute).

EDIT: The reporter seemed to think LE would have to start back at "square one".

She was obviously a bright light that was shinning in the midst of a great darkness that she lived in. She will shine forever.... and I will never forget this little girl. A lot of cases tear at my heart, but this one seems really, really personal to me. God Bless you Zahra..... your soul cannot be extinguished by the evil you had to live with.

That's exactly what I have heard also. Even the most expensive prosthesis have to fit perfectly, and with a growing child like Zahra, I can't see her getting the level of care she should have. MOO

About 150 people held hands and sang religious songs at a vigil Wednesday night in Hickory to remember Zahra Clare Baker. She was reported missing Saturday and police are treating her case as a homicide.
Many in the crowd implored each other to love their children.

photos of vigil ....

Thanks for the update and welcome! Sadly I'm not surprised. She could be anywhere especially if the woodchipper is involved. MOO

Wonder if they are going to drain the other ponds there in the area?

Again tonight my prayers will be for LE to be given the leads they need to find Zahra.......and to be able to prosecute whoever is responsible.

Good night everyone!

I grew up in NW Hickory, my wife is from Sawmills, the father of one of my best friends lives on Hartland Rd, and I have a 10 year old daughter with disabilities. Needless to say, this hit close to home.

The passports... it seems odd to me that they were in a vehicle. Why would someone carry passports around in a vehicle unless they expected to need them on the fly, or had recently used them? I don't think anyone in the family had recently been out of the country, so that leaves someone planning on a need to fly - quickly. It seems to point to a crime that happened a while back, and there was idiotic planning that involved a ridiculous ransom note to "throw LE off" the case, with plans to bolt at some point. Guess LE was smarter than they figured. I would be focusing recovery efforts around the last address they lived at.

Ms. Sadistic (sm) is behind bars doing nothing and Mr. eyes closed is standing around saying nothing - while LE are working their azzzzes off 24/7, exhausted, heartbroken, and determined.

How dare those two keep their silence! moo

The problem with the photos as regards the leg is that I have seen photos of Zahra with two different sytles of prosthetic leg. One is more resemblant of a human leg, shape, etc.

The other is of the slender titanium-ish looking variety where it is just a slender pole running from the shoe and then fitted at the stump.

We can't know what we are dealing with til LE or someone tells us if one of those legs was a replacement for the other or whether she wore both at teh time of her disappearance. I tend to think it is one or the other as it was reported her prosthetic (singular) was missing along with her but without knowing which one it was, how can we know whether it can be partially chipped or not?

sigh. I hate it when I hit the informational dead end!

bdp, I have a disabled daughter as well. She's eight, and though she has not overcome nearly as much as Zahra did, I know what you mean by hitting close to home.
