Original entry:

Good to see so many familiar names and a few faces! Is anyone not doing well?

Finished medicine and working as a cardiology registrar in Leicestersince Jan 2000 (hopefully temporarily). Had a brilliant year in New Zealand 1995/96. Married to Kate (Healy, for those docs in Glasgow) and very happy although no kids-yet!

Don't get to Glasgow that often but have bumped into a few old friends around the southside where my mum still lives.

June 2003- Still in Leicester but now family of 3 after birth of Madeleine Beth on 12/05/03. Thankfully she takes after her mother although definitely has my lungs even without a dew drinks.

August 2004- Bones- glad i left after 5th year! Currently in Amsterdam learning some fancy heart scanning(MRI) but returning to UK in New Year when hopefully will become family of 5. Looking for a consultant job and shortlist is Glasgow, Liverpool, Leicester in fact pretty much anywhere north of Birmingham

April 2005- Back in Leicester and looking for a job. Now father of three with Sean and Amelie joing Maddie. Anyone fancy babysitting?

It is all a big effort for Gerry, isn't it? Has he ever said one single happy thing about his children? Ever said they were a blessing after so many problems?

Yes he did, and not only that, even though he was so busy 'looking' for his 'abducted' daughter he spent the time to call up a long forgotten two year old blog entry and edit it within a few weeks of his daughters 'abduction'… Confused

"Good to see so many familiar names and a few faces! Is anyone not doing well?" has been removed.
"Anyone fancy babysitting?" has been removed. Just a light-hearted comment, removed after May 3 for obvious reason.
I see nothing suspicious in either of those deletions.

It seems strange that he would remember and be conscious of his "babysitting" joke entry at a time like that. He must have changed it pretty early on, as his last entry is May 2007. Personally, entries to my Friends Reunited would be the last thing on my mind.

The other thing that stands out to me is that they obviously have referred to M as Maddie, and have since at least 2005.

because he did not need babysitters now that Madeleine was 3 years old and could look after herself and the twins?

Thats probably because us lot were busy looking for information and some kind Mc advisor probably highlighted that perhaps his statement wasnt appropiate and it should be deleted. Smile

******************************************************************
interesting that Gerry got quite uppity about the press referring to his daughter as "Maddie" and said that she would not respond to that name, yet he referred to her by that very name.

It is simple.

When he edited his Friends Discontinued entry in May 2007 he no longer needed a babysitter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hmm, yes, so he did ...... what a weird thing to do. Like, your daughter has been abducted but it still occurs to you to go on Friends Reunited and update your entry. Shocked

I guess the "babysitting" reference had hit a raw nerve.

"Is anyone not doing well?"

Interesting because I don't think Gerry thought he was doing well according to this his own blog.This sentence harmless you might think has now been edited out.
Why?
Is it dangerous or incriminating in some way to leave in? In some way it is.

Look at the discontent.
January 2000,"cardiology registrar in Leicestersince (hopefully temporarily)"
He is plainly unhappy and feels he's too good to remain a registrar for one moment longer that is absolutely neccessary.

Then August 2004..," Looking for a consultant job " in view of the pending birth of the twins,in the " New Year when hopefully will become family of 5 ".

And did Gerry get that consultants job in Leicester ?

April 2005,"Back in Leicester and looking for a job. Now father of three with Sean and Amelie joing Maddie."
Seems not.

Maybe life just wasn't working out for Gerry after all.
