Mother: College student found alive after being missing for days
NEWNAN, Ga. - A Newnan family is feeling grateful after their son was found alive after being missing for days.
No one had spoken to 20-year-old Xavien Khalid Weatherly since Thursday night.
"I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. He’s my firstborn child," said Shannon Weatherly, sobbing.
Weatherly said the last time anyone spoke to her son was when he was leaving his uncle’s house.
"We don’t know what happened, I don’t even know what direction he went in when he left," she said.
So they tried calling.
"It just started going to voicemail and I haven’t heard from him since."
His disappearance had made a stressful for the family unbearable.
Three weeks ago, their house caught fire, displacing them. They have been staying in a hotel ever since. Weatherly thinks that the stress has caused her son’s depression to worsen.
"This is not normal for him, at all," Weatherly said. "He does not just disappear and gone for days, my son doesn’t do stuff like that."
Monday, Weatherly told FOX 5 that Xavien had been found alive. She did not give any information on his condition or where he was found.
