Nicola Bulley's family have spoken for the first time since police revealed the missing 45-year-old has 'health issues'.
The mum-of-two vanished into thin air on January 27 while walking her springer spaniel Willow in the village of St Michael's on the Wyre in Lancashire.
Lancashire Police investigating her sudden disappearance said they believed she had entered the river - but despite a thorough search by specialist teams she was not found.
