perhaps the Aruban definition of "kidnapping" is different than ours...seems most of their terms are different....
Also, thank you all for your concern about my son. I was told, by his doctor, after his 4th neurosurgery that "There is no medical reason he should be alive!- and that God must have a special plan for him." Imagine...but he is, and doing very well.
I was hesitant to post that, it happened over 15 years ago. He is in his 30's now, holds a Master's Degree and is working and has his own apt. Although I still have sadness for what he lost, and the plans he had that can never be realized, I am so very, very proud of what he has achieved. Yes, cases like this bring back some rough memories.
