JAYCEE LEE DUGARD: A HAPPY SMILE REASSURES US ALL

People Magazine has the 1st public and exclusive photos of Jaycee Lee Dugard, 29 years. Jaycee said, “I’m so happy to be back with my family”, she told the magazine. "Nothing is more important than the unconditional love and support I have from them.” Watching the joy in her face brings tears to my eyes when I think of what she has suffered. Then I feel inspired by how enduring the human spirit can be. That Jaycee can look so stunning is truly wonderful. Jaycee looked radiantly happy, healthy, with a great broad smile and gorgeous long brown hair over her shoulders.

Jaycee Lee Dugard was kidnapped in 1991 when she was just 11 years old. Dugard was abducted as she walked to the school bus stop within sight of her home in South Lake Tahoe, CA. Jaycee’s stepfather, Carl Probyn, a few hundred yards away in the entrance to his house garage, watched helplessly as she was pulled into a gray sedan by a woman. Carl’s frenzied efforts to catch up with the gray sedan on his bike were futile.

Angel, 15, and Starlit, 11, are Jaycee's daughters, apparently fathered by Phillip Garrido, 58; a registered sex offender who police say raped her repeatedly over the years. Jaycee and girls—who had never been to school or seen a Doctor—seemed to have spent all of their lives in the backgarden of Garrido’s home close to Antioch, CA.

This house in Antioch, CA, where Jaycee and her two daughters were kept prisoner in the backyard is actually owned by Phillip Garrido’s mother. She lived there with Phillip and Nancy Garrido, Jaycee and Jaycee’s two daughters. It feels as if the authorities are keeping very quiet about her involvement. Possibly dismissing it on the grounds of ill health and being elderly. She hasn’t always been ill or elderly. What was her involvement in this horrendous crime over 18 years?

This backyard area, covered by mimosa trees and hidden by a tall wooden planked boundary fence, featured a hellish warren of four tents and five sheds.This is where Jaycee and her two daughters, Angel and Starlit spent their days and nights. Remaining for years in these filthy tents and vile woodenshacks.

Today Phillip and Nancy Garrido face a combined total of 29 felony charges, including forcible abduction, rape and false imprisonment in connection with the kidnapping of Jaycee Lee Dugard in 1991. Garrido remains in custody at the El Dorado County Jail in Placerville, California, as he and his wife Nancy Garrido await trial.

Jaycee and her two daughters are now living in seclusion with her mom, Terry Probyn, 50, and family. A family spokeswoman said Jaycee was riding horses, cooking meals and thinking of collaborating on a book.

These images are almost too good. If we are not watchful we may allow ourselves to mask over or dismiss or even diminish Jaycee’s appalling ordeal from the age of 11 years old to a 29 year old mother of two.

They do however give us all hope. The sort of hope that comes from seeing another human being putting on a heartwarming smile even after suffering 18 years of hell.
It is truly inspiring.

Lets all wish her well on her road to recovery.
