Police Asking For Community's Help To Find Missing Woman
MIAMI(CBSMiami) -- A living hell; that's what a family says the last five days have been like since the 28-year-old woman they love went missing on Tuesday.
"I know what hell feels like because I am in it right now," said Ramon Gonzalez, father of the missing woman. "Until the day I find my daughter and I see her, it's not going to stop. I'm here now in the worst situation that a parent could be. I don't know what stone to turn upside down anymore."

For the first time in four days, Ramon Gonzalez showered and changed clothes. He has been tirelessly searching for his daughter, 28-year-old Tanya Gonzalez.
Gonzalez says his daughter was just starting a new phase of her life. Tanya just moved into a new apartment after breaking up with Roy Blanco, her live-in boyfriend of five years.
Gonzalez says Blanco was controlling and obsessive, distancing Tanya from her family, monitoring her phone and stopping Tanya from going anywhere without him.
"She felt (she didn't) feel nothing for him no more," said Gonzalez. "She told her mother, she told me, she told him. (Blanco) went ballistic."
Tanya had just started dating someone new. Her family believes Blanco was stalking her when she went missing. Although police haven't named Blanco a suspect or even a person of interest, Gonzalez's family believes he was involved in her disappearance.
Gonzalez's family says Blanco rented a boat in the days since Tanya went missing from a Coconut Grove marina, loading his mom and two dogs on it. The family says Blanco never returned the boat and was later found off the coast of Key West when he ran out of gas.
Gonzalez's family believes Tanya's missing car may be the key to finding her. She drives a dark blue 2011 BMW with Florida license plates 705-YLJ.
"God knows where's my daughter now because I'm not stupid. I'm only trying to pray and hope. I can't imagine life without her. It cannot be. I will not allow it. I'm going to find her. I'm going to find her and when I find her, I'm going to take her with me."
Blanco's whereabouts are unknown. Dogs that may belong to him were found in a North Miami park.
Anyone with information is urged to call the Miami Police Department at (305) 603-6300.
