  2010-12-20
  My name is Ruan Jiancheng, and I'm an eight-year-old boy. My father, Falun Gong practitioner Ruan Xianchou, was arrested on November 26th and is being held in the Taishan City Detention Centre. They have not given us a detention warrant, and neither have they allowed me to visit him. Since my father's detention, I have lost the strong backbone of my life. I'm also unable to go to school. I am short on food and clothing. No one takes care of me, and I have been left alone. I plead with you to please help secure my father's release.
