God, she is so pitiful. Just so sad.

I'll say one thing about the Holloway & Twitty families. These people know how to organize and be effective. They have gotten the world's attention focused on Natalee and are to be admired for their tireless efforts under such excruciating circumstances. They must come from wonderful communities and have many wonderful friends.

Let's pray that this nightmare will soon be over for them.
