October 28, 1998 I am still receiving mail from all over the US. I love getting the letters and read each and everyone. With little energy, it is something I can do easily. I opened a letter today with a picture in it of a big read, hand colored heart. Obviously drawn by a child. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the art work had been done by a little girl named Heidi O'Maly. I began to cry. I could not help it....this little girl was kidnapped to Saudi Arabia. Her mother sent me the picture. It says "I LOVE YOU" on it. I cry as I write this because as the mother of a missing child, I treasure all that Nadia left behind. I can not imagine parting with anything that was her's. For this mother to give me such a prize represents the ultimate in gifts from the heart. I will always treasure it as one of my most valuable possessions. The reporter stayed two days and never ate a thing! I do not believe the incredible amount of support and well wishes that continue to mount daily. Americans DO NOT GO ON HUNGER STRIKES. I am told that the Human Rights division of the State Department is very concerned, However I have never spoken to them nor have they ever contacted me. Perhaps they are working towards. "damage control".
