Struggling to hold back tears, Kate McCann tells the Sunday Express of her anguish and gives a heartfelt message to her little daughter, promising that she will never give up the search for her...Every single line of police inquiry appears to have come to nothing and despite renewed hope for her parents following a sighting in Belgium last week, Gerry and Kate McCann are for the first time preparing for a future without their daughter. But with the dark shadow cast by Madeleine’s kidnap looming over this corner of the Algarve, things will never be the same until vital questions are answered.
For Madeleine’s parents the harrowing ordeal shows no sign of ending and nor will it while they cling to the hope of embracing their daughter again. Gerry and Kate McCann have reconfirmed their determination to remain in Praia da Luz until the four-year-old is found.
Next Saturday will mark 100 days since the toddler disappeared and last night her frantic mother spoke of her increasing pain. Alone, without her loyal husband by her side, Kate McCann spoke openly of her anguish. Throughout the interview she grasped the silver locket which houses her most cherished photo of Madeleine. On the outside the words “Tower of Strength” have been clearly engraved on it to give support.
“I can’t describe how much I love Madeleine. If I’d had to think for one second, ‘should we have dinner and leave them?’ I wouldn’t have done it. It didn’t happen like that. I didn’t have to think for a second, that’s how safe I felt.”
As her voice began to break, Mrs McCann added: “Maybe it was because it was family friendly, because it felt so safe. That week we had left them alone while we had dinner. There is no way on this planet I would take a risk, no matter how small, with my children. It did feel safe and so right.
“I love her and I’m a totally responsible parent and that’s the only thing that keeps me going. I have no doubt about that. You don’t expect a predator to break in and take your daughter out of bed. I do feel regret. I’ve gone through all my life and said I never want to have any regrets, but you can’t not regret something like that. It could have happened under other circumstances and there would still be the regret. It wasn’t like a decision we made. It was a matter of ‘let’s get the kids to sleep then we’ll have dinner.’ It wasn’t a ‘shall I, shan’t I?’ thing. People have told us that we are the unluckiest people in the world and we are. That night runs over and over in my mind and I’m sure people will learn from our mistake, if you want to call it that.”
Mrs McCann went on: “It is important not to lose sight of the fact we haven’t committed a crime. Somebody has. Somebody’s been there, somebody’s been watching.”

'Insights into the likely pathway ahead in the coming week for Kate McCann'

Two of Crescents
Receiving information relating to The Shining Star to put her mind at ease. The Star being the significator of Madeleine McCann. The 10 of Weapons reversed indicating clearly that the passing away of Madeleine McCann has NOT occurred.
The information received relates to the reflection of the crescent moon on the 'media sea' indicated by the 2 of Crescents... the news to be given to official sources is but a reflection of the real information. Kate McCann will receive information appertaining to the harmony indicated by the 2 of Crescents --- its actual book meaning 'the lord of love' and relates to the moon always having two faces. It links with a spiritual union or perhaps a new business partnership.
The Prime of Crescents reversed indicates a creative phase is coming to its close. Kate will seemingly face a week of unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life. But it in no way relates to Madeleine's disappearance or any of the current news stories which we, the public, get to read. There is something forming, forming ... something contradictory to what is being reported?
Things commence their fading out of view this week. An eraser rubbing out pencil lines. Something which is safe to tell appears to be on her lips thus I will pay especial attention to between the lines of all things which Kate says in the coming days. Kate has said more than is apparent on first read ... this is clearly etched in her eyes in the photo above. She wants to say more than she is permitted. It will be interesting reading when her biography is published like no doubt it will ... 'her mind appears to think different to how she looks' ...she is resentful now she's climbed that hill but the news is still reporting the climb. Her 'secret' is safe ... for however long it may remain and I'm sure it will.
"She'd never make a good actress ... she'd not be good with reading her lines ... she'd forget and say something not written there when the camera rolls and she is under pressure to act."
