“That’s where she last was and I don’t think she’s been taken a million miles from there." she said. "I’ve always said Praia da Luz is the place where I feel closest to her.”Nine years and thousands of 'sightings' later, police are no closer to finding the child.

Contemplating Maddie's 13th birthday, coming up this May, Mrs. McCann said she and husband Gerry never stop thinking about her:
“Nine years. Time just goes too quickly. It’s the quiet times that are tough. Times when you are thinking about her — or something related to her. “The urge to look for Madeleine absolutely hasn’t changed at all. You hear all the time about people who have been missing for years being found. There have been so many cases like that. “We will never give up. You couldn’t settle if you thought about giving up. I want an end, an answer. Whatever that it is.”If you live in the UK and you would like to register receive Child Rescue alerts just text HERO and your postcode to 85080.
