Columbia, SC (WLTX)- Over two weeks ago 15-year-old Gabbiee Swainson was kidnapped from her mother's home.
52-year-old Freddie Grant has been charged with kidnapping Gabbiee but Richland County Deputies still haven't been able to find her.
Gabbiee's mom, Elvia Swainson, says this has to be a mother's worst nightmare.
"It is getting a little bit harder everyday and I am busy trying to find my child," said Elvia.
Elvia says her strength comes from God and people who are continuing to pray for Gabbiee.
"She is alive and we will find her."
The suspected kidnapper is behind bars but before he was arrested he was seen on tape helping in the search for the missing teen, passing out fliers.
According to a background check on Grant WLTX has determined that his phone number was on fliers passed around to help find the teen.
Gabbiee hasn't been seen since August 18.
