He was still able to get around but he wasn't able to you know, dress himself or feed himself

From then on up until he disappeared. We had already suspected the poisoning part

She says we can't find Rob and she just hung up the phone and that was it

But the whole time my mind is going

Can he be disappeared? Where's he gonna go? There's nowhere for him to go and he can't travel that fast. What do you mean you can't find him?

Hello and welcome to episode 75 of the vanished

57-year-old Robert Wayne Cox disappeared from his home in Havana, Arkansas on February 19th, 2011

The thing about Robert's disappearance is that it isn't one of those that will have you wondering if he walked out on his own free will

You see in the months leading up to his disappearance Robert began suffering from a mystery illness and he just happened to disappear before he could be diagnosed

Robert wasn't well enough to walk away from his home on February 19th, 2011

In fact, he couldn't even lift up his head and had become nonverbal

This episode will leave you wondering what was causing the sharp decline in Robert's health

And why certain people close to him have never made any effort to search for him. This is Robert's story
