Help find Sean Sidi

This was posted on FB FindSeansidi last week: 

Some days I can't stand posting on Sean's page. It just reminds me how long we've been in hell - how long Sean' has been lost without us, and how long we've been without him - But I have no choice, because there is a chance that Sean is alive. SFPD recently issued another nationwide BOLO. 

4 tips received in last 4 months - thanks to those sharing and posting (♥ ANN A. Tina, Luana, & Leona (HI) & ALL): 2 tips discounted by photos; 1 from Colorado of a young man recently arrived from CA (no picture); and an interesting set of tips from Venice Beach area - So Cal - being monitored - will share soon.

Happy Birthday Sean!  You are MUCH loved and missed!

(Thank you Jamie O. for the flier!)

Happy Valentines Day SEAN! Our search for you...for answers.... will continue for as long as it takes. There are many, with heart, with soul, with compassion - who walk with us.  While you may not remember us, or who you are - WE ARE WITH YOU Sean wherever you may be...

With So Much Love,

Mom, Dad & Danielle

(Thank you Cynthia Caron & LostNMissing for Sean's flier - made with love.)

See www.facebook.com/findseansidi or www.seansidi.com for more information on missing Sean SIDI, age 19, who vanished from San Francisco, CA on May 21, 2013 shortly after sustaining a traumatic brain injury.

We were thrilled to hear of (FB's) Mark Zuckerberg & wife, Dr. Priscilla Chan's $75 million gift to SF General HOSPITAL. See http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Zuckerberg-wife-give-75-million-to-S-F-hospital-6065958.php.

WE will never forget the incredible doctors and nurses at SF GENERAL WHO worked around the clock for days to SAVE Sean's LIFE....that fateful day 2 yrs ago...when Sean arrived at SF's only LEVEL 1 TRAUMA CENTER -- IN a COMA, with a SHATTERED skull & many, many other injuries....racing towards DEATH.

Several months ago, near the time of Sean's 2 year 'anniversary' of his accident, I received a call from a nurse at SF General. She told me that SEVERAL of the nurses REMEMBERED that it had been 2 years since Sean's ACCIDENT, and that they wanted ME to know that THEY HAD NOT FORGOTTEN SEAN or our family.....I was incredibly touched by that call.

We HOPE with all our heart that ONE DAY we will be able to tell SF General (& all of YOU) that Sean has been FOUND..........Thank you all for continuing to support us in this effort!

Another year ending with no sign that Sean is alive, but no body identified as his. We go to work, we live our lives, we go on & YET we DO NOT.   We can never truly move forward without resolution.   We ache to hold Sean & dream of seeing him alive.  However, if Sean is not alive, we want to know. "Not knowing" can drive one to the depths of depression & beyond.....

How do we survive with any semblance of grace & dignity? Perhaps it rests with acknowledging the needs & suffering of others & helping in whatever way possible.

TO THAT END, we are proceeding (it was on hold)  with 'SOCKS for SEAN". The intent is to distribute a few WARM, NEW SOCKS to those in need. This will NOT cure the ills of the world, nor will it find Sean, but its something... IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE in "Socks for SEAN":

1. Please DISTRIBUTE 1 or 2 PAIRS of WARM SOCKS TO homeless NEAR YOU & include Sean's flier. THIS WILL HELP SPREAD THE WORD about SEAN & HELP someone in need. Some, like Tina A. in Marin share Sean's fliers while feeding the homeless. Danielle and I generally distribute Sean's flier with a $1 bill. THIS is the same idea, but with SOCKS.

IF YOU ARE ABLE, SEND A PICTURE, OR LET US KNOW WHERE YOU DISTRIBUTED YOUR SOCK(S).

2. IF YOU PREFER THAT WE DISTRIBUTE THE SOCKS, Send or drop off your sock contribution to:

Claude SIDI, 450 Sutter St, Suite 1819, San Francisco. CA 94108

**We will distribute the socks January & February 2015.

See www.seansidi.com or www.facebook.com/findseansidi for more information on critically injured Sean SIDI (age 19) missing from San Francisco CA May 21, 2013. Sean may not know his name or his DIRE MEDICAL NEEDS due to a severe traumatic brain injury suffered shortly before going missing. Please email lynnkching@yahoo.com to have Sean's fliers MAILED to you anywhere in the U.S. (REFILL requests welcomed).

Thank you to so many who emailed and messaged US with your prayers.

We will post with updated information when received. I’m not sure how long the ID process will take - several weeks to several months - depending. There are many missing persons nationwide and many homeless living in Golden Gate Park…..the remains located on Sept 9th IN GG PARK could be anyone.

It has been a very long 16 months since Sean vanished – with NO promise of an “end” regardless of the ID outcome. Nonetheless, we are extremely grateful FOR THE support we have received from all of YOU.

YOU played & continue to play A CRUCIAL ROLE in giving us a FIGHTING chance of locating Sean. There are TOO many to name & many more we have never met - but you each share a special place in our hearts….

We have NO guarantee of finding Sean or answers, but WITH YOUR HELP we retain some comfort in KNOWING that we continue to do as much as we can.

We PRAY that somehow – even without memory, that SEAN can sense how much he is LOVED....

THANK YOU ALL,
THE SIDI FAMILY
