I have posted this as I cannot find another about this,
greek police are looking for the parent's of a 4yr old girl,she was found with people and stood out as she is blond,DNA test's showed she is not related to the couple who had her and fear it may be a abduction,she is being looked after by the greek authorities until they find her natural parent's.

looking at the picture of her she look's what I would call Scandinavian,white hair and pale blue eye's.
I hope they find out were the poor little girl belong's as she must be so confused.

sue.

Hi Sue

It was the first thing i saw on the news this morning.

It must bring great hope to parents such as those of Maddie Mccann.

Hi Sue

Yes I saw that and I agree she looked Scandinavian. How much of these sorts of abductions go on we shall never know.

I do hope that it is resolved satisfactorily but what a traumatic time for that little girl.

I have seen the newspaper and tv coverage over the weekend. I think the poor little girl looked so sad her eyes looked
to be traumatised. I can't get her little face out of my mind.

she could of course be looking sad as she has been torn away from the family she thought was hers - no one knows how long she has lived with them, and apparently her family gave her to these people - wonder if will ever discover the truth
