Dec 4, 2003 The Keene kids have vanished again in what may be another magic trick in the anti-family tool-kit of the Davis-Flores child abduction gang.
Now You See It
After years of searching, I was finally able to exchange positive emails with my son, James, now 15, and daughter, Grace, now 19, as previously reported. This brief correspondence for little over one month (Aug 5 to Sep 16) was the beginning of the first real parent-child communication since James and Grace were kidnapped by their disturbed mother, Feb 1, 1995, almost nine years ago.
Both James and Grace wrote how glad they were to be in contact with me -- their father. Each expressed plans to send things and continue the exchange of ideas and news. Both had questions for their Dad and wanted more news from their Dad. Grace wrote that she was glad to be able to discuss things with her father -- with a person she could "trust".
Just as I was beginning to think it might be time to travel to visit them, now that they had finally been located in Burlington County, NJ, the lights went out.
Now You Don't
Sep 16 marks the last email received from my children. They have vanished again, at least from their father's email inbox.
Has something terrible happened? Were my children lying to their father in their emails about how happy they were to finally be able to develop a relationship with their father? I believe my children were telling the truth. Or was this exchange of emails "allowed" as just another Davis-Flores puppet show?
This famous anti-family gang may be on the run again. Running and hiding is their trademark. And after almost nine years of abuse, my children may be on the run with them, either as willing or unwilling participants.
The author received a Nov 12 email from a reputable, responsible citizen in this same Burlington County, NJ, area stating, in part:
"I saw Dr. Nilda Keene listed as a practicing Dr. recently and am trying to
figure out where this woman actually is."
A reputable physician should be easy to find. There would be an office or associated hospital or phone listing or something. Or how about just a beeper? The correspondent quoted above, however, in the same region of NJ, apparently could not locate Dr. Nilda Davis-Flores aka Keene, the serial kidnapping and child abuse mastermind in this case.
So the author may not be the only one "trying to figure out where this woman actually is". I have been trying to keep up with her run-and-hide game for almost nine years. Welcome aboard. I could use some help.
If John Walsh or Dan Rather do a feature on this story, running sneakers may be essential equipment. Law enforcement, including the FBI, may also be on the run, and much like the perpetrators, trying to run away from this story.
Maybe others are also trying to "figure out" things. There is the DEA of the U.S. government, for example. Maybe the New Jersey Board of Medical Examiners is looking at the Dr. Nilda case.
If, perish the thought, Dr. Nilda has actually had contact with patients in New Jersey, then there is the patients and their families. How often does a spouse and parent visit a psychiatrist like Dr. Nilda? Answer: very often. One wonders whether the other spouse would like their husband or wife under the treatment or influence of an anti-family child abductor and abuser. Would the advice be: "Run away with your children and hide"?
Such possibilities suggest the on-the-run-again theory, to explain why the lights went out on my brief email contact with my children.
Sometimes Dreams Do Come True
For other parents who have been victims of child abduction, the foregoing illustrates just how dreams can come true. These are the recurring dreams of searching for one's children, seeing them and running to hug them and save them. But, alas, at the last instant, they disappear.
Such dreams have a real-world basis, as events reported above show.
Each dream invents a new way for the children to vanish. It might just be that you see them in a room and rush there, only to find they are now in the next room, and so forth, until you awake in a panic, unable to reach them. Or it might be you find them wounded and hurt in some terrible place, but wake up before you can take them to safety, with nothing but the words of your son or daughter in the dream, "Daddy, I'm hurt".
Better dreams can come true, too. The dream that my son and daughter will not internalize and adopt the totally anti-family posture of the Davis-Flores gang. That my son and daughter will have the strength to overcome the handicap of their kidnap and abuse experience.
The dream that authorities will do their duty to curb harm by Dr. Nilda to others. The dream that authorities will do their duty to make her accountable for her misdeeds. These dreams, so she may receive the help she needs.
