Vickie Metcalf says she won't give up searching for her missing daughter, Myra Alissia Freeman.

The Highland Home mother took her search national on Thursday night and appeared by phone on Nancy Grace on HLN.

"She could be in any state so getting it out there nationally I thought would be a lot better," Metcalf told AL.com on Friday, adding that she and other family members had emailed the show repeatedly.

Freeman disappeared seven months ago, on the evening of Dec. 13, 2015, after taking out the garbage from her room. Neighbors said they saw the girl, then 17, walking along nearby Highway 331 later the same evening. Freeman wasn't carrying anything with her.

The police investigation revealed Freeman had wiped the hard drive of her computer. The teenager had apparently been speaking with unknown individuals in chatrooms and on the instant messaging app Kik.

Metcalf launched an online petition when Kik wouldn't release records of who Freeman was communicating with to law enforcement. She declined to comment on the status of obtaining those records.

In the Nancy Grace clip shared on social media, guest host Jean Casarez asked Metcalf what she wanted people to know about Freeman, and if she had any identifying marks.

"She has one of those faces that you know her when you see her," Metcalf replied. Her (blue) eyes - they stand out."

As of late Friday morning, Metcalf said sharing her daughter's case on Nancy Grace hasn't garnered any new leads for law enforcement yet.

Neither has a $10,000 reward offered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which was announced in April.

In the meantime, Metcalf said she is praying and keeping up hope that her daughter will contact her or someone will see her and notify police.

"I honestly don't see how someone can get through this without faith in God," she said.

Metcalf had this message for her daughter: "I would like to tell her that I love her, and that we all love her very much."

If Freeman can hear her message, she wants her to at least call home, and let her know she is OK. She doesn't have to come home if she doesn't want to, Metcalf said.

Metcalf begged anyone who knows where her daughter is located to notify the police "because that is what we would do for them," she said.

"We won't ever give up until we bring her home safe," Metcalf said.
