Family of girl who went missing on way home from work still searching for answers

 CLEVELAND -- The family of a 17-year-old girl missing for seven months is even more desperate to find her after a body was found on Cleveland's east side on Wednesday.

 On April 21, Amanda Berry disappeared during her short walk home from work at the Burger King on West 110th and Lorain. She was still wearing her uniform. It was the day before her birthday.


 Berry's mom, Louwana Miller, only has pictures left of her missing daughter.


 "All I want to know is where is my child," said Miller. "If she's out there, somebody just call me. Let me know if she's alive so I don't have to sit and think that she's laying somewhere like that little kid."


 Yellow ribbons are still tied to the fence and Berry's missing signs are torn and tattered.


 Many businesses have already taken the signs down. Her family hopes that while she's out of sight, she won't be out of mind.


 Dimitri's Family Restaurant replaced missing posters after realizing window washers damaged the others.


 At the Burger King where Berry worked the drive thru, signs still hang on the outside and inside of the building.


 Miller says she's frustrated by the system.


 "Seven months of my lifetime and there is no suspects," said Miller.


 There's been some confusion in Berry's case. Another teenager, Amanda White, had an Amber Alert issued when she disappeared from Cleveland Heights last month. White was found safe and sound a few hours later. But Berry's family says many people confused the girls and thought Berry was home.


 There will be a candlelight vigil next Friday in front of city hall called the Rally for the Return of Amanda Berry.

Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry on America's Most Wanted

Reported by Paul Thomas

 CLEVELAND -- The stories of missing Cleveland teens Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry were highlighted on the show America's Most Wanted Saturday.

 Berry's story has been on the program before but it was the first time that a national TV audience saw and heard DeJesus' story. And her family hopes the national exposure will lead investigators to Gina.

 When Felix DeJesus got his mail Saturday, there was a welcome surprise inside -- his daughter's smiling face.

 Mail carriers are delivering fliers featuring DeJesus.

 Fourteen-year-old DeJesus disappeared Friday, April 2nd.

 "Any help is appreciated," her father says.

 Appreciated too, any method of getting the word out to people who don't know she's missing.

 "Because I know somebody had to see something," Felix DeJesus says.

 "Maybe she's not in Ohio. It's very important [to get Gina's story out]," Mayra DeJesus, Gina's sister, says.

 So Gina's family gathered around the TV, hands clasped, hopes raised to watch Most Wanted.

 The show also gave life to the story of another missing Cleveland teen, Amanda Berry.

 The 17-year-old was last seen one year ago, only six blocks away from where DeJesus disappeared

 Daughter's Disappearance Takes Toll On Woman's Health
 Doctors Find Tumor On Louwana Miller's Brain

CLEVELAND -- It has been more than a year since Louwana Miller has seen her 17-year-old daughter, and the stress of the girl's disappearance has taken a dangerous toll on the worried mother's health, reported NewsChannel5.

Amanda Berry disappeared in April of last year, the day before her 17th birthday, as she walked home from her job at Burger King on West 110th Street and Lorain.

Now, Miller says she is so stressed that she practically lives on pills, reported Lee.

"I stay so stressed out - that's all I think about, when she's coming home," said Miller.

Miller takes 17 different medications in all, for everything from severe stomach pains, to insomnia, to headaches.

Doctors have now found a small tumor at the base of her brain.

Family friend Terry Sanchez says they still have hope that Mandy will come home.

"Was this a jealous friend? Did she get taken out of the country in one of those prostitution rings? -- Because she would have never gotten in the car with someone she didn't know," said Sanchez.

The two things Miller says she wants most in life are Mandy's safe return and to be around for the homecoming.

The reward for information leading to Amanda Berry's safe return is now more than $20,000.

If you know anything that might help lead to Amanda's recovery, call the Cleveland police or the FBI at (216) 522-1400.

Nearly four months ago, 14-year-old Gina DeJesus disappeared, near Lorain Avenue and West 105th Street.

Faithfully, every Friday night since Gina disappeared her family holds a vigil.

And a year before Gina went missing, 17-year-old Amanda Berry also disappeared from nearly the same spot.

Family members said authorities are also planning on putting up new billboards with Gina's and Amanda's pictures on them, hoping for any new information.
