Please click the link above for a full picture and info. On Saturday, Tiffany ran away from her very loving home. Tiffany was adopted a few years back by Tracey, whose SCA/Faire name is Rose. As you can imagine, Tracey is worried sick right now.

Please take a look at the picture on the webpage and keep both Tiffany and Tracey in your prayers.

I know that the faire community reaches far and wide - please keep your eyes open for this young lady. Her mom is *very* worried about her. ANY information you may have on Tiffany or her companion would be greatly appreciated. Photo is at the Livejournal link posted below.  Rose (the mom) is very active in our local SCA chapter, although Tiffany is not.  But... you never know.  You know?

Tiffany Marie Duncan - Age 17. Tiffany was last seen at home in Raleigh, NC, on Saturday, December 6, 2008. She may be in the company of an older man named "Ryan" or "Brian" that she met on myspace. She also has a black sharpei/pit bull puppy with her. If you have any information about her whereabouts, please call Tracey Duncan at 919-906-6153.

Tiffany has called to check in with her mom - but AFAIK, she is still unaware of her physical whereabouts. ANY information would be appreciated.

Thank you so much!  The outpouring of support has meant the world to Rose.  And - we have some good news!

Tiffany called and talked to the Detective last night.  She was clearly already second-guessing this situation.  She called me this morning and she is willing to let me come and get her.  She still doesn't want to live at home, but I told her that we could sit down with her therapist and her mental health support caseworker and see what alternatives there are to get her in a place where she is safe, but feels more independent.

YIPPEE!!  I know it's not over yet, but at least I know she's OK and (at least for now) she's being more reasonable.  Pray for my wisdom and strength as we try to plan appropriately for Tiffany's future.

Unfortunately, the news is not so good this morning:

Tiffany came home yesterday, but unfortunately left again.  Literally within 5 minutes of my going to get her, she was belligerent and demanding.  No apology, no reasoning, just ....  well, a bi-polar, damaged teenager.  Took her to the therapist.  Tried tough love.  Her birth brother called yesterday because she had called him.  He told me that nothing worked for him until his grandmother finally said, "I wash my hands of you."  He thinks this is the only way she will learn as well.  He made me feel good because he said, "I told her she was crazy.  I wish Ms. Tracey could have adopted me and here you are throwing it all away." She left in the night without the puppy this time.  The police have said there's no point in searching now because she just doesn't want to cooperate.  Thanks for caring.  Please pray to the deity of your choice for her safety, until she wakes up and realizes that a loving family is better than the streets.  I believe in prayer.  And I believe in hopeful thoughts and good karma.  I believe in God, because He kept me safe when I had no one to care about me.  He sent me many friends and all of you.  I will not be hopeless.  Thank you all again for your support and encouragement.  Let us pray.


Please keep Tiffany and Rose in your prayers.

I'm literally at a loss for words right now.I just don't know what to say except that I hope that Tiffany realizes what she is doing and comes back to her senses one day and decides to come home for good.She and Rose and the rest of the family continue to be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
