Help find Sean Sidi

Critically brain injured teen, Sean Sidi, age 19, has been missing from San Francisco, California for over 4 months now. We are in a desperate race against time to find Sean. Sean needs URGENT MEDICAL ATTENTION. Doctors have warned that Sean's medical condition puts him at significant risk of death if he is not found soon. We do not know whether "soon" has come and gone. We only know that Sean has not been located. More information and pictures of Sean at www.seansidi.com or www.facebook.com/findseansidi.

PLEASE HELP US LOCATE SEAN. WE CANNOT FIND SEAN WITHOUT YOUR HELP!! 

Sean may be in OR out of San Francisco. He is likely disoriented and may be unable to ask for help. Our plea is to EVERYONE who lives in the UNITED STATES. If Sean got into a car, he could be very far from San Francisco. 

IT ONLY TAKES 1 PERSON TO SPOT SEAN. 

1. STORE Sean’s picture and our telephone number (415.713.5913) in your cell phone. 


2. STOP AND LOOK at every homeless or disoriented looking young man. It may be Sean. SEAN IS 19 YRS OLD, 5' 5", 120 lbs. and of Asian/Caucasian ethnicity. He has silver dental braces, dimples, surgical scars on right forehead. 

If you think you have seen Sean, please take a picture and CALL us 24/7 at 415.713.5913.


3. HELP POST SEAN'S FLIERS - ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES

We desperately need help keeping Sean’s fliers posted in and out of San Francisco.

Sean has now been missing for over 4 months…..Each day is more painful than the previous one - as we (his parents) oscillate between despair and sadness, with no end in sight. Sean’s disappearance has also affected the lives of his close friends. One of Sean's closest friends is Paul Vajda.

Paul and Sean have been fast friends since middle school – spending countless number of hours together in school and out. During his winter break from university in January 2013, Paul spent many days with Sean, after Sean’s accident and 2 brain surgeries - talking, listening, and building up Sean’s strength by walking and hiking with him. This summer, we spent some time with Paul. We could not help but be reminded of Sean, and all the fun times he and Paul spent together over the last 7 years…. 

BELOW IS A LETTER FROM PAUL TO SEAN:

“Sean, It started with a birthday party…then came the lunches, followed by the weekends and the numerous sleep overs, the long Friday nights of rock-climbing and watching “Lost”, rafting, skiing, swimming, biking, gymnastics, aikido, walking Ginger, Paris, Tahiti…and the list goes on. But what about our plans to go flying? and your visit to Montreal? Sean, this list is still too short and has too many unchecked boxes. Where are you? Where have you fled to that's better than San Francisco, filled with friends and family, all longing for your return. There has been nobody to call all summer. The number of times I had a natural instinct to dial your number that I know all too well only to quickly realize there is nobody to pick up, is a stinging reminder that a piece of me has disappeared.

Come home now.

Much love, 

-Paul”

Several months before Sean went missing on May 21, 2013, he sustained a severe traumatic brain injury in an accident. In this accident, Sean completely shattered the right side of his skull and fractured so many bones in his body that it was hard to imagine that he could survive. It was touch and go for a week as Sean fought for his life. Thanks to the extraordinary skill of the neurosurgeons at San Francisco General Hospital, the impeccable and compassionate care by ICU nurses, and the incredible resilience of youth – Sean, by some miracle, SURVIVED.

I will never forget Sean’s first words, which he weakly whispered to the nurses upon emerging from his coma….

He said, “I WANT MY MOTHER.” 

It is beyond comprehension that my beautiful son would survive such a horrific accident, only to be torn from my life several months later, when on May 21, 2013 - Sean vanished without a trace from San Francisco. Every night, I think of Sean, alone on the streets - wondering whether he is cold and hungry, wondering how long he can hang on, and whether he is asking for me... 

Sean’s neurosurgeon says that as a missing person, Sean is at high risk of death due to his medical condition. We are trying desperately to find Sean, in time. We cannot possibly find Sean on our own. Only with everyone’s help do we stand a chance of locating Sean, in time, to bring him home safe and sound. 

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT OUR SEARCH FOR SEAN. YOU CAN HELP BY:

1. POSTING SEAN’S FLIERS (download or email lynnkching@yahoo.com for fliers) – IN and OUT of San Francisco. There are still SO MANY people who do not know that Sean is MISSING. 

2. SHARING SEAN’S FACEBOOK POSTS, TWEETING etc. 

3. MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU CAN HELP BY KEEPING A LOOKOUT FOR SEAN, WHO MAY BE DISORIENTED, UNKEMPT AND WANDERING THE STREETS UNABLE TO ASK FOR HELP. Remember, Sean has dimples and silver dental braces. HE COULD BE IN SAN FRANCISCO OR NOT. WE JUST DO NOT KNOW. 

Please keep Sean’s picture and my telephone number (415.713.5913) in your cell phone, and call me anytime if you think you have seen Sean. 

Thank you all,
Lynn
Sean’s mom

From Lynn and Claude, 

Today marks 4 months that Sean has been MISSING…There are no words to describe the horrific change in our life – since that fateful day on May 21, 2013, when Sean’s cell phone went dead at 2 pm, and he did not return home. Everyday, we live a life of unfathomable sadness, depression and guilt. How could we have let this happen to our beautiful boy, who all his life strived to do the right thing….. a good student on his way to university and only beginning life’s journey. How could Sean have vanished from the city he loved so much!!? 

Sean’s room remains untouched. It is too painful to walk into his room as doing so reminds us too much of our loss...Sean with his beautiful smile and funny jokes, Sean so sweet and thoughtful, Sean the son who wrote the most touching Mother and Fathers Day cards that we will cherish forever. Sean, our beloved child who we miss SO, SO MUCH……. 

Everyday, we wonder whether we will ever see Sean again…. The only certainty in our life - is that we know that will NEVER stop searching for Sean. 

Thank you for all of you who came to the Vigil yesterday to support the families of the missing boys from San Francisco ~ Crishtian Hughes, Shawn Dickerson, Cameron Remmer, Jackson Miller and our son Sean. It was heart breaking to hear the parents speak about their missing sons. 

We need to keep the awareness of these missing boys alive ~ each of these boys deserve to be brought home safely to their families. As difficult as it continues to be each and every day for us, we must continue our search. 

We certainly appreciate everyone's help. With your help, we have been able to expand our outreach of Sean's disappearance throughout several western states. Thank you.

The Sidi Family
