Update Monday morning 6:30 AM

This was sent out by Bryan late last night. I am too incoherent to write an update myself. Although I am not able to express it right now, I am so grateful for everyone's help and kind words. But I am too sad to write more.

"Hey y'all...

Here's where things are right now. Rebecca and I are going to sleep without our Bean for the 2nd night in a row. Theo, Rebecca's dad (Curtis), and I just got in from one more late night sweep, and we didn't find anything.

I did, however, just get a call from someone who said that he saw Bean near Lancaster and Markham today with another dog, wandering about. Our baby has, apparently, made a friend, and is looking for us.

While this has been an excruciating couple of days, we are so warmed by all that everyone has done. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family of people around us. Many of you have worked with us, many of you have worked on your own; many of you have said prayers and chanted for Bean to come home to us, and many of you have spread the word far and wide. I personally am in love with the people of Walltown, who have been so supportive and so willing to help us, calling just to see if we've found her, and going out of their way to bring our baby back to us. It's just a testament to how many wonderful people are in this world, despite the broken soul who took our Bean in the first place.

Please don't stop. Everyone in the area knows about Bean, and everyone is looking. One more day of persistent searching, and I know that our love will be back here annoying all of us on a daily. Please keep talking to your neighbors. Please keep walking around and looking for her when you can. Please keep putting up flyers. We will find her. And we will find her because of this wonderful family that we have.

Rebecca and I are checking the animal shelters first thing in the morning, and then we'll be back out in the neighborhoods if she's not in the shelters. We'll find her. Hit me on my phone (210-9256) if you want to come out with us.

Thanks so much y'all. You don't know how much it means to both of us.

We are so sorry. We are purring and thinking good doggie thoughts that she is found soon and comes home safely.

Hey, I'm Amanda & work at the APS. We met briefly, and I know how much you love Bean. I am gonna post some of those flyers around here, b/c we get a lot of people that live out near Durham & Chapel Hill. *hugs*

I wish I lived near you so I could go and help search for your beloved Baby Bean!

All I can do is offer every prayer I have that she makes it home to you safe and sound
