There are no words to describe the relief we are feeling knowing that Esti has been found safe. For the first time in days, we can hug our daughter and breathe again.
To be clear, while this is the end of the search, Esti still needs proper medical care, evaluation, and support, and our family is focused on making sure she is surrounded by the love and care she needs in the days ahead. We are incredibly grateful she is home, but we are still taking things moment by moment, and we ask that people refrain from speculating.
To the thousands of people who carried our family through this nightmare — thank you will never feel big enough. To every person who searched, shared her photo, hung flyers, checked cameras, sent messages, prayed, or simply held our family in their hearts: you gave us strength when we were running on none. We are so blessed to have a Jewish community here in Toronto that stood behind us and relentlessly did what they could. There are not enough words to thank the overwhelming support from the Jewish community and every resident of Toronto and the GTA who searched for Esti as if she was their own daughter.
We want to thank the Toronto Police Service, Shomrim Toronto Safety Patrol and everyone who worked tirelessly to help bring Esti home safely. We also want to thank God for sending all of this support and ensuring Esti has come home safely.
What we witnessed over these past days was extraordinary. People from all over the city, the country, and around the world came together for a child they had never even met. Complete strangers stopped what they were doing to help bring our daughter home. That love and humanity are something our family will never forget.
Right now, our focus is on Esti’s health, recovery, and well-being. We ask for continued prayers, love, and privacy as we begin the next stage of helping her heal.
