Madeleine McCann: Kate McCann’s Message And McCann Posters For Mari Cortes Luz
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY EXPRESS: “I feel your pain – Kate’s note to kidnap parents”
Kate McCann has delivered a “heartfelt message of support” to the parents of missing girl Mari Luz Cortes
Writes Kate, a “GP”: “I feel your pain, as parents we know what you’re going through…I am praying that Mari Luz is found quickly, safe and well”
Not that it’s all about the McCanns, a Maddy 2. Although: Says Juan Jose Cortes, Mari’s father: “Only now I understand what Madeleine McCann’s parents are suffering”
Neither Mr Cortes nor his wife are named suspects in their child’s disappearance
The McCanns have offered to equip posters of Madeleine with a shot of Mari – 12,000 of them are to be put up in Spain, the Balearic and Canary Islands
Mr Cortes says thank you but “We don’t feels strong enough to make a decision”
Says Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ spokesman: “The posters could lead to vital clues in both cases. Mari Luz’s face would sit along Madeleine’s… We just want to help”
Help who?
DAILY STAR: “’I KNOW THE PAIN YOU ARE FEELING’”
“Madeleine McCann’s mum has told the parents of a child feared snatched by the same abductor: ‘I feel your pain.’ GP Kate, 39, sent her words of comfort to the parents of five-year-old Mari Luz Cortes when the McCanns’ private detectives met them to investigate links between the two cases”
How did the papers come to know of this message, and how can knowing help either child?
“POLICE reject claims of link” – Portuguese police do not “believe” there is a link between Mari and Madeleine
Kate McCann is a “GP”
DAILY MAIL: “McCanns comfort lost girl’s parents”
Kate McCann has sent an “emotional message” to the parents of Mari Luz Cortes
THE McCanns will have to wait until September this year to discover why they were made suspects
THE MIRROR: “KATE’S PRAYER OF HOPE”
“I FEEL YOUR PAIN – Kate’s message to parents of missing Spanish girl Mari”
Reports are that police are seeking a “local sex pest” in Huelva
“70,000..the number of kids under 16 that go missing in the UK every year. Only 10 per cent vanish for more than five days”
Any more room on those posters? How are they remembered?
DAILY TELEGRAPH: “McCanns tell lost girl’s parents: We feel for you”
Says a friend of Mari’s parents, Irene a
nd Juan Jose Cortes: “They have been touched by the fact someone who is going through her own turmoil can find the strength to think of their moment of need”

I agree, the search for Madeleine should be halted. The whole World has been saturated with
pictures of Madeleine and sad as it is I don”t think she is alive. I remember a short while ago
it was reported that £80,000 had been spent on Posters, are these the same 12,000 to be
distributed do you know.? The fact that Carrefour in Spain refused permission for the last
lot of posters to be attached to shopping trolleys and the fact that PDL has removed everything related to Madeleine may mean these new Posters will not be so eagerly received
and that”s why the offer of putting a photo of Mari next to Madeleine was made (says she cynically)

Which you admitted did not fit with your Theory about her being
Murdered in the bedroom…so you had to accept that the checks
were much less than reliable.
By the way….why suffication ?

Hmm. Firstly, lets just assume the McCanns know their own tots sleep patterns a little better than the likes of you or I.
Now with that in mind, the liklihood of them inhaling vomit whilst not sick is pretty much nil. And to add, even if that did happen, you may not hear the commotion even if you were sat in your own front room.
Wandering? Where? Falling? From what?

Garth, have you been falling off your bike again?
You can’t be serious asking that. Even GM himself said Madeleine gets up and walks around in the night. He even said M may have got up to go to the toilet in Apartment 5a. As the door was unlocked she could have fallen down those steps.
You’re fillibusting again like Peter O says. You know what’s being discussed so you’re just mischief making as usual.

The ONLY reason that the Mc’s left those kids alone is that they wanted p*ss up time for themselves. FFS if you have children, you realise that a certain amount of freedom needs to be given up! Firstly they were utterly selfish, secondly they were utterly stupid and thirdly, they’re not as smart as they think they are!

So you think the McCanns know more than child welfare experts? They can predict the future and know the unknowing? I’m not buying into your argument.
Any responsible parent knows that children of that age must have someone available supervising them within the immediate premises of where the children are. As a GP, Kate McCann should have known better than most how irresponsible it was to leave her babies and Madeleine alone. They chose their own selfish pursuits over a pragmatic child care arrangement (or chose to portray it that way to cover a terrible accident/death to their child).

Firstly….there are plentiful doubts about the McCann’s testimonies.
Secondly….For your self-posted Theory about Madeleine having been
suffocated to death by the so-called “Abductor” to fit….you had previously
admitted that the Dr’s may have told a few porkies regarding their checks.
You can’t have it both ways Garth.
—————————————————-
But Matt, you dont actually know what doubts there are in fairness. So that one is a non starter as far as Im concerned.
With regard to the McCanns checks, how does that affect an abductor smothering a child in this case?

It’s the same here in the US basically. You see a general practitioner but if you need to see a specialist, you look in Yellow pages to find the one you want. The way it works is like the UK but you have more flexibility about who and where you want to be seen.

The point is, the McCanns obviously had their tots in a routine. They knew the risk (if any) was very small. And like Gerry McCann has stated, to him it was like being in his back garden. Now, if that were the case, what harm would a child come to in their own home that would be different to the apartment? Bearing in mind of course, they were checking every half an hour which would be no less frequent that the checks you’d make in your own home.

falling of that balcony
______________________
I remember the Michael Jackson video when he dangled his baby over that balcony. I know it was “Bad” and “Off the Wall”, but I still think leaving kids alone is orders of magnitude worse than what he did. I know what he did was wrong and “risky”, but it was brief and silly…a spur of the moment thing. What the McCanns did was repeated night after night and was premeditated with a clear decision making process. Leaving kids alone was not a spur of the moment thing. They had the best part of a week to think about what they were doing.
And let’s face it - the McCanns did it because they were selfish.

It is obviously a different system in the USA which I am not familiar with. In the UK, the GP refers the patient to a consultant. If the problem is the heart, it would be to a cardiac consultant (consultant cardiologist) although, in the National Health Service, the patient would not necessarily see the actual consultant - they might see a more junior doctor, such as a registrar, who is specialising/training in cardiology (I think you call them interns in the USA but I am not sure of that). However, the consultant cardiologist takes overall responsibility. It is also possible that the cardiologist could ask a cardiological colleague, such as the supervising consultant, to review the findings (for example, scans etc) without seeing the patient. There are also inter-departmental meetings, often weekly, during which cases would be discussed between junior and senior cardiological doctors.
Gerry McCann is a consultant cardiologist and I believe he deals with some specialised heart scans. These could be angiographical scans when a catheter (or line) with a tiny camera is fed through the femoral artery up to the heart, all this being guided by ultrasound - this can give an excellent idea of the state of the coronary vessels, whether there are blockages etc. Or he could deal with echocardiological scans (termed echos), a non-invasive technique using ultrasound to see what is happening within the heart, particularly with reference to the heart valves. There are also newer more sophisticated techniques being pioneered and I think I read that GM had worked on something like this. He could either carry out the scan himself (which would be usual) or he could review the pictures and report on them with someone else carrying out the actual test.
As he apparently specialises in these heart scans, he could more easily be kept from seeing patients than a consultant who actually sees, examines and treats patients in the consulting room. But usually a cardiologist who specialises in these scans does see patients as well.
What I am saying is that, here in the UK, a consultant physician is one who specialises in a particular field to a much higher level than a GP, not just one to whom results and findings are referred for a further opinion, although that could happen as well. Within the NHS you could see a consultant physician in a hospital, but you could also consult one in a private consulting room, such as in Harley Street, if you wished to “go private”.

Perhaps the flip-chart easel with “The Wider Agenda” was his belated calculation?
I’d like to ram the wider agenda down the man’s throat - figuratively speaking.

Thanks…good link.
My point entirely. Leaving kids is not a risk - it’s an absolute NO-NO.
Do we play with rattlesnakes and take a risk of them biting us? No. Do we take a risk by not bothering to treat a bad cut for infection? No. Why then is this stupid phrase about calculating a risk coming from? Looking after children properly means putting them at NO RISK to themselves. There is NO calculation necessary and NO calculation that could result in any decision affecting process (under normal circumstances of course). Going on a holiday for a week to a child friendly resort means you take your children to dinner with you or you stay in the apartment. The only 3rd alternative is to pay for the babysitting service. There are NO alternates to these 3 scenarios…period.

599 Sally,
Sorry Sally, I think you mis-understood me. I was being sarcarstic, wondering if this missing child was a set up as part of a mcscam in an attempt to manipulate us into believing the abduction theory. I know its OTT, but I would not put anything past the Mccons and the infamous Metado 3, they would try anything, thats not saying that they would hurt the child but she may have been a neice of a Met 3 employee or something. Its really silly I know but then again its no more dafter than any of their other attempts at manipulation. IMO
