It’s what every parent of a missing child aches for. A phone call saying their child is still alive. In April 2014 a man claiming to be Luke Degerness called the MissingKids.ca hotline. He said he was looking for his mother’s contact. 

Gina Degerness has long since moved away from the Prince George home she shared with Luke before he disappeared. But citing privacy reasons, the hotline declined to provide Gina’s number to the caller. He never called back. 

Gina, is now appealing directly to Luke through the fifth estate, hoping against hope that the call was not a prank and that her son is still alive.
