boosting the signal for a runaway girl

[tsuki-no-bara.livejournal.com]

this isn't a davis square specific post and i apologize in advance, and in fact i'm not 100% sure this is even allowed - and if it's not, i absolutely understand - but my friend bifemmefatale lost her daughter and is freaking out and i'm hoping you guys have a wider reach than just my flist. and every time i've needed assistance from the dslj, y'all have totally come thru.

bff's daughter is sixteen and named morgan, altho she also answers to mo, and i think she disappeared over the weekend. (i was out of town and just saw the post yesterday.) at last notice, mo was on a bus from chicago theoretically heading towards carbondale, il, for a rainbow gathering on oct 1. she's 5'5", 120#, short hair with bangs and sidelocks. she didn't take her backpack with her, so all she has is the clothes she was wearing. according to her mom she hangs out in the gutterpunk community in chicago, specifically a punk/bicycle gang called the rat patrol, if that means anything/is any help. mo may or may not actually go to the rainbow gathering in carbondale if she thinks people might be looking for her, and apparently at this point she could be in st louis or heading to texas or anywhere.

details and a couple photos are here. please, please boost the signal if you can.

UPDATE! SHE'S BEEN FOUND AND HER MOM WENT TO GET HER AND BRING HER HOME. (apologies for capslocky excitement. :D )

i've seen this all over both livejournal and tumblr. i wish her the very best in a safe homecoming.

that's actually weirdly comforting. i really, really hope someone finds mo soon and she's ok, or that she calls home, or even better goes home.

no, it is. word is getting out. she looks like me at that age, and just because she looks like "that" and isn't four years old or something, she still should be found. i'm actually really warmed that so many people are taking it so seriously.

I'll spread the word on FB. I have a large community of punk friends across the country.

yeah i saw this on facebook through a former coworker in chicago, so it's gotten pretty far on the interwebs.

I believe Wil Wheaton retweeted this the other day, so lots of eyes are seeing it.

She's been found

According to the link in the OP.

She has been found! (http://bifemmefatale.livejournal.com/861724.html)

Please edit the post to reflect that so people don't keep reposting. Thanks!

^^^They beat me to it. Please edit. She's on her way home.

I left a comment for the mother. She looks _exactly_ like I did then. And I left home just shy of 16.

The power of the internet, man. This made my day.

Glad to hear that. If the OP does not re-edit the post soon, we moderators should probably delete it.

i made a new post. i've been offline all day (rosh hashana services :D ) and didn't see the update myself until tonight.

i'll edit this post too, tho.
