SPRINGFIELD - The family of a pregnant Springfield woman who has been missing for several days has asked the public to help locate her.

Yvonna "Vonnie" Adams-Black, 39, was last seen about 10:15 p.m. Wednesday, when she told her sons, ages 15 and 13, that she was going to go out karaoke karaoke

Adams-Black's children "are her life," and she would never go anywhere without calling them, her sister, Correna Compton, said.

Compton said she normally speaks with her sister at least three times a day and has not heard from her.

Adams-Black has diabetes, her sister said. Her family believes she disappeared without medication she needs to control her symptoms. She also left behind her identification and bank card, taking only a little bit of cash with her.

Family and friends have spent the past few days posting fliers throughout the city and calling people connected with Adams-Black, she said.

Still, Compton said her sister, who is single, may have been meeting someone she met on a local party chat line, and fears the worst.

Compton said her sister, who is six months pregnant and unemployed, was told by her doctor that she may be carrying twins. She missed her first scheduled OB-GYN appointment Thursday.

She also missed a court date regarding an eviction The removal of a tenant from possession of premises in which he or she resides or has a property interest done by a landlord either by reentry upon the premises or through a court action.  from her home in Springfield.

But Compton said, "She knew she was going to win. And she just wouldn't leave her kids."

"If we can get her face out there, the better chance we have of finding her," Compton said.
