A Nova Scotia mother says she's worried about her teenage daughter in Alberta, who hasn't been in contact with her for the last two weeks.

Melissa King said her 18-year-old daughter, Julia Elvena King, was last seen June 1 in Grande Prairie in northwestern Alberta. King is originally from Antigonish.

"It's not normal behavior for her not to be talking to me. She usually calls me every three to four days just to let me know she's OK because she knows I worry about her. We have a very close relationship," King said Monday.

"It's not normal for her to just disappear like that."

King says her family used to live in Alberta but moved back home to Antigonish. Her daughter returned to Alberta two years ago to finish school and find a job.

Julia stayed with a friend's grandmother and then got her own apartment, says King. But she was forced to move out when she lost her job.

"That's the last time anyone had seen or heard from her," said King.

As the second week with no contact rolled by, King turned to the police.

"She was very active on Facebook. She loves the phone. She loves talking. She touches base with people. All of a sudden it stopped and there was nothing more from her," she said.

King said her daughter missed an important medical appointment on Monday. She's trying to fly to Grande Prairie to help find her.

"I just need conformation that she's OK," she said.

King says she's made her personal Facebook page public so anyone with information can contact her.
