More pictures of our precious Sean...Always smiling, always so good natured and funny. We miss him so very much.... The third picture is of Sean (on left) and friend Nico who lives in Tahiti.  The 4th is of our car with Sean's flier - apparently the only way to keep a flier up in San Francisco....

Search for Sean SIDI - July 27, 2014

Today, Claude (Sean's dad), Danielle (Sean's sister) and Danielle's friends are out water skiing, swimming and tubing on Lake Sonoma. It makes me happy to know that Danielle is smiling and laughing with her friends...

I am desperately working on regaining some sense of ...?? healing?? happiness?? Not sure what the words are. Unfortunately, I do not know if that is possible given the depth of my sense of loss.

I thought I knew love - until Sean (my firstborn) & his sister arrived.. There are no words to describe THAT feeling is there? That - that love could burn even brighter and stronger as time passed - was amazing!! All parents know what I am saying. In the back of my mind, I knew those feeling made me vulnerable to incomparable pain should something happen to Sean (or Danielle). But how could it? Like every parent, I took every care and precaution I could!!!

I still cannot believe that this happened to my funny, articulate, personable boy - who made us smile and laugh so much?!!! Last week a family found their 18 year old autistic son who went missing in Los Angleles - 20 days after he went missing. He was dehydrated and hurt, but ALIVE. WHY could WE not locate Sean when he needed us??!! How do we live with this guilt?

... I recently spoke to a cafe owner in Eugene OR who claimed to have seen someone resembling Sean. He did recall braces....& claims to have seen "Sean" late spring/early summer. On the other hand he says there are SO many street youth and MANY missing persons fliers in Eugene. I hope that he calls me if he sees "Sean" again.

THANK YOU to all those continuing to POST Sean's fliers. PLEASE send PICTURES & location so that we can POST. It is good to know where the fliers are. Claude saw a black & white flier in Berkeley yesterday - Please send PM or email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your ADDRESS to have fliers MAILED TO YOU anywhere in the U.S....I still have BOXES & BOXES of Sean's fliers.

Santa Rosa, CA Sean SIDI Sighting - Update

Santa Rosa, CA Sean Sidi Sighting Update:

After the (unconfirmed) "Sean" (SIDI) sighting of March 24th, we spoke to the Santa Rosa police dispatcher and faxed Sean's flier & information to Santa Rosa police. We also provided Sonoma County Sheriffs with Sean's missing person flier. At this point, we wait...and HOPE. 

Over the past 10 months, we have received many "Sean" sightings. While NONE of the sightings have been confirmed to be Sean - by a photo or by someone who knows Sean, we are nonetheless VERY GRATEFUL to those who have called in the sightings. MANY have told me that they DEBATED whether or not they should call - because they were not sure whether it was not Sean..... 

PLEASE, DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL (415.713.5913) IF YOU THINK THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE THAT SOMEONE MIGHT BE SEAN (SIDI). IT WILL ONLY TAKE 1 RIGHT TIP TO FIND SEAN...

I will keep you posted with any development. 

Thank you to everyone - including some from OTHER STATES - who recently requested that Sean's FLIERS be mailed to them. We appreciate your help posting/distributing Sean's fliers. 

We have printed THOUSANDS of fliers - & will mail to anyone (anywhere in the U.S.) wiling to post. Please send a message on FB or email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your address, if you would like Sean's fliers mailed to you.

Comments from 2 POLICE OFFICERS about SEAN SIDI

The roller coaster of hope & disappointment continue. I try to survive by going through the exhausting process of blocking out all thoughts of my personable, good natured , charming son, who - despite the horrific accident, had the promise of a fulfilling LIFE ahead of him. Unlike a death, where pain may dim over time, the loss of having a MISSING CHILD & the anguish of NOT KNOWING become more PAINFUL as time passes, with HOPES diminished and ANXIETY INCREASING - wondering whether I will LIVE out my life NOT KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED TO SEAN......

This week, we got some help from 2 kind San Francisco Police officers. I approached 2 policemen at the Montgomery MUNI/BART station IN SAN FRANCISCO with Sean's fliers. After speaking to them, they ASKED me if I had more fliers - which of course I did. They took a stack, and had the station agent (at Montgomery) post the flier In the STATION window. They said they would distribute the fliers to other station agents. WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL TO THE 2 SAN FRANCISCO POLICE OFFICERS FOR THEIR HELP. 

INTERESTINGLY, when I asked both police officers if they would recognize Sean among the homeless, they BOTH said they would RECOGNIZE SEAN'S DIMPLES (whether smiling or not)!!! I thought that was interesting as several people have said the same thing. 

Please keep your EYES open for SEAN, among the HOMELESS, LIKELY looking FAR from the well groomed boy in these photos, except for his signature DIMPLES & BRACES....
