Sharing with Dan Tri, Ms. Thinh said that her family is very grateful to receive the attention of the online community nationwide during the past time.

"I have wanted to tell my daughter these feelings many times, but for the past 25 years, no information about her has been found. Therefore, my husband and I want to use social media to tell our daughter, wherever she reads it, to contact her family, and ask the online community to share so that she can find her soon," Ms. Thinh wishes.

According to the content of the shared status, Ms. Thinh's daughter, Le Thanh Trang (born November 20, 1995), was lost on July 15, 1998 at house number 17 Ly Nhan Tong street, Dien Bien ward, Thanh Hoa city, Thanh Hoa province.

At about 5:30 p.m. on July 15, 1998, while the TV was showing Journey to the West, Trang was watching the movie with her aunt Dao and sister Quynh (Trang's older sister). Mrs. Thinh went to the kitchen to cook rice. When she finished cooking, Mrs. Thinh called Quynh to bring her sister down to bathe and eat, but Trang was nowhere to be found. The whole family and neighbors went looking for her and were shocked to find that Trang had gone missing.

In her status, Ms. Thinh kept mentioning the last memories before the fateful day of separation between mother and son, making many people emotional.

Mrs. Thinh wrote: "Trang, time passes by according to its own rules, but the pain is still deep in my heart. 25 years of cruel time, I waited and waited, looking forward to your news every day, every hour. Trang, do you remember July 15, 1998, that afternoon I came home from school, I got to come home earlier than usual, so I went to get 2 bags of sugar to sell.

When we got home, Mom mixed sour plum juice for Aunt Dao, Quynh and me, each of us had a cup. I fought over the big cup to drink. I couldn't finish it, so I brought it back to Mom and told her to drink it. Mom didn't expect that the two of us drinking that same cup of sour plum juice would be the day we had to part.

Every time I think back to that scene, my heart breaks. Trang! Where are you? Are you okay? How are you doing? Did you come looking for your parents? Your parents have been looking for you for 25 years but to no avail! I miss and love you so much!"...".

The "heartfelt letter" without a recipient's address made the online community cry (Screenshot of the character's personal page).

According to Ms. Thinh, since her daughter went missing, she has not stopped thinking about her. Even during every meal, every sleep, and every night, she still wakes up in pain and calls her daughter's name. "Trang, I miss you so much, I long to see you again and hug you even just once!" Ms. Thinh's words brought many people to tears.

According to Mrs. Thinh, during the 25 years of searching for their child, she and her husband have gone through many difficulties and suffered many shocks, both financially and mentally. Many times, because she missed her child so much, Mrs. Thinh suffered from depression and had to go to the hospital for treatment.

"Now my husband and I just want to see our daughter. We hope that if our daughter reads this information, wherever she is, she will contact her parents so we can see her," Ms. Thinh hopes.

The missing daughter of Ms. Le Thi Thinh is named Le Thanh Trang (born in 1995). Trang went missing on July 15, 1998, when she was only 3 years old (now 28 years old).

Identifying features: White skin, double eyelids, a small mole under the left jawbone, wearing a white polka dot short-sleeved shirt when missing.
