a child that was abducted from my oldest sister, but it was like it passed in a moment when the lost child was found, grown with children of her own. Hope is what must not be given up. Never, never give up until you are certain there is no hope. Remember that Yaacov the Patriarch was separated from his son Yosef for decades, but when re-united the time apart was like a moment in the joy of finding the treasure (son) that was lost.
