Missing Girl...

I had a few lighter topics that I wanted to write about for a fun Friday post but there is an issue going on that has been weighing heavily on my mind and heart...

I am a proud Cajun woman from Lafayette, LA.  No matter where my journey takes me, Lafayette will always be my home.  It is known for it's excellent cuisine, original music, and amiable people.  We love our Saints, proud of our heritage, and when a crisis arises, we rise up and come together as a community.  It is a truly, beautiful place to call home.

As of right now, Lafayette is dealing with a crisis.  We have lost one of our girls.  Since last Saturday, Micky Shunick has completely vanished.  No one knows anything about her whereabouts.  

I have never met her or her family.  I haven't lived in Lafayette for nearly six years.  I may seem a little silly posting this because I have no idea who reads this blog... but as a proud former member of this community, I just had to help in spreading the word.

Yesterday, while perusing the internet and seeing all of the sites that mention Mickey, I came across a radio interview with her sister.  Her sister made a plea to anyone that knows ANYTHING to please let them know so that she could find her sister.  

This absolutely broke my heart and had me in tears.  Anyone who knows me, knows that my sister is my world.  She is my rock and my best friend and I know that if she went missing, I would go through Hell and back to find her.  So, please, take a look at the links, look at the pictures, post, forward, do what you can... because someone has to know SOMETHING about this poor girl.      

Hug your loved ones and thank the Lord for them.  I know that this is exactly what I will do tonight.  

Much love- 
Dee
