Wisconsin -  Nearly 48 hours after Jayme Closs was reported found, updates about her condition are continually being posted to a Facebook page called Healing for Jayme  Closs. Two new photos were posted Saturday afternoon.

The first was a solo selfie of Jayme, snuggled up in bed with her dog Molly and another unidentified pup.

The second photo was another selfie with her aunt, Jennifer Smith, with a caption reading “Love her so much!!! What a glorious day !!”


Jake Patterson, 21, allegedly shot and killed Jayme’s parents. Their bodies were found October 15 after a mysterious 911 call led deputies to their home in Barron, Wisconsin.

The 13-year-old was missing when police arrived, leading to an intense manhunt that ended when she was found alive Thursday about 70 miles from her home, 88 days after she disappeared.
