please, please return my mother's passport, and let her come home."Paris, who is struggling to focus on upcoming exams, said the incident
has "infected all of my life".Overcome with emotion, she continued: "It's as if my feelings of sadness fill me completely
I don't know how I have managed a month without her."I really hope it ends
I would do anything to see her again."
