Add The New York Post on Google The sister of missing Elizabeth Waddell – the American tourist who vanished on the Caribbean island of Grenada – said she is “grieving” for her sibling after leaving the search for the missing mom.
“Today I leave Grenada with a broken heart,” Anna Watkins wrote online Thursday, one week after her 44-year-old sister suddenly vanished.
“While the missing person investigation remains open, I am grieving. I am devastated, my heart hurts, and the world around me feels like a blur.”
Waddell, a physical therapist from Cary, North Carolina, was last seen jumping into the water near her Airbnb in the picturesque resort of Grand Anse on July 22.
She has not been seen since then, but Watkins is still holding out hope that her sister, affectionately known as Liz, will be found.
“I’ve been holding on to that idea this week,” Watkins wrote.
“She’s not lost. She’s exploring the sea, still sharing her magic with those around her.”
Watkins also revealed she spent time near Grand Anse Beach – the location where Waddell, a keen traveler, was last seen.
“I floated along Grand Anse Beach this morning, spending some time enjoying the beauty of the place she was last seen,” she wrote.
“I imagined Liz’s contentment relaxing in the warm calm salty water.”
