Call me cynical, but it sounds like pop may have gotten tired of feeding and caring for the boy. I hope I'm wrong and if I am, apologies will be forthcoming.

Maybe your cynicism is well-founded -- but it shouldn't keep you from praying for the little boy.

I read this story on some St. Louis websites (newspaper Post-Dispatch and TV, KSDK), and it looks like the father's story is not considered believeable by police. He's not cooperating, they say.

Police report progress in search for missing boy
06/13/2003
Missing boy's parents have been feuding in court. Click here for full story
St. Louis (AP) -- Searchers continue to look today for the severely disabled child who has been missing without his needed medicine since Wednesday.

Christian Ferguson
St. Louis police Captain Harry Hegger said detectives are making headway in the investigation into 9-year-old Christian Ferguson's disappearance. He did not elaborate.
The boy's mother and her family continue public pleas for help.
The boy's father, Dawan Ferguson, told police he left the boy in his S-U-V to make a call from a pay phone. The car was recovered later Wednesday without the child in it.
Since then, Ferguson has remained silent publicly.
His lawyer, John Rogers, says Ferguson is grieving in private.

Hi t! If you hear anything new (I've seen a little on TV), would you ping me? I hate to say it, but don't believe Christian is with us anymore. :o(

Nothing online but this story from earlier today:
Father of missing boy gives saliva sample
Dawan Ferguson, father of a severely disabled 9-year-old boy missing since Wednesday, provided a saliva sample Monday to St. Louis police but refused to answer questions, officials said.
If authorities find a body, they could use the sample to determine whether it is Christian Ferguson, who lives with his father in Pine Lawn.
By Monday night, there was still no sign of the boy. His family has said he could not live much beyond 24 hours without medication for a rare disorder that inhibits his processing of protein. Christian cannot communicate or take care of himself.
Dawan Ferguson, 30, told police someone drove off in his SUV when he stopped to make a call at a pay phone in St. Louis about 6 a.m. Wednesday. The vehicle was recovered empty in the city of Ferguson about two hours later.
Ferguson talked to police Wednesday morning but eventually requested a lawyer and declined to say more, officers said. Post-Dispatch

Thanks very much, mountaineer! I've heard nothing today about them locating poor Christian. Do wish they could find him. :o(
