Now, her desperate grandmother Nicole Louk, is willing to go to Gaza to locate her beloved Shani and rescue her from the hands of brutal Hamas militants.
Speaking to the French news channel La Chaine Info [LCI], the devastated grandma claimed: "Shani is alive, but badly injured in the head".
It follows reports that the family obtained information suggesting Shani had not been killed, despite viral images showing her seemingly lifeless body being abused by cruel Hamas terrorists.
“I don’t understand why the German government did not arrive in Gaza to save my sweet little girl so that she could receive care,” added the Franco-German.

In a heartbreaking final statement, Louk offered to go to the war-torn city herself if it meant saving her granddaughter.
"f you need me… if I can go to her… I ask you to do everything possible. I want to be next to her," she said.
Shani, a pacifist and peace activist, had been attending the Supernova music festival in south Israel on Saturday when Hamas launched their initial horror attack on the unsuspecting country.
The festival was one of the first sites attacked when the Palestinian militant group stormed across the border with paragliders and armed soldiers.

At least 260 attendees were massacred at the event as hundreds of others still remain missing - with many, like Shani, thought to have been kidnapped and taken into Gaza as hostages.
Witnesses said the Palestinian militantscut the power and opened fire- with shocking footage showingterrified ravers fleeing the site.
The 22-year-old is believed to be among 150 hostages being held captive in several locations across the Gaza Strip.
The sickening footage also showed Shani being tossed into the back of a Hamas truck, but this hasn't stopped her mother, Ricarda Louk, from holding onto the hope that she will soon hear from her daughter.
Ricarda toldCNN: "The video looks very bad but I still have hope. I hope she's still alive somewhere.
"We don't have anything else to hope for. We're trying to believe."
The family was able to identify her by her distinctive tattoos and black and blonde dreadlocked hair.
“I just don’t want to believe it,”Shani’s mother told LCI.
The pair's last telephone exchange dates back to the beginning of the horror attacks, when Ricarda begged Shani to go to a bunker.
But in a harrowing turnaround, Shani's parents were informed by their daughter's bank in Tel Aviv, that her credit card had been used in Gaza, according to the German news siteDer Spiegel.
Meanwhile a chilling rant was sent from the phone of Shani's missing boyfriend, Orión Hernández Radoux, 30, amid fears he too has been abducted by Hamas terrorists.
Harrowingmessages written in Arabicwere sent from the dad's phone as his family desperately tried to find out what had happened to him.
Sick texts seen by The Sun say "I spit on you" and "God damn you".
They also vow to "liberate Palestine" and make it "free of Zionists".
Friends say Orión, from Mexico, travelled to the Negev desert for the music festival to share his knowledge of Mexican traditional Huichol art and to DJ.
Shani had shared a sweetphoto of the pair on herInstagramin July and called him "my love".
It comes after at least 1,000 Israelis were killed in Hamas' initial assault on October 7- with the latest figures stating that the deadly war has now claimed at least 2,400 lives on both sides.
The attack, the deadliest assault in the country's 75-year history, followed two years of subterfuge byHamasthat involved keeping its military plans under wraps.
And as the battle rages into its seventh day, Israel is preparing to flood soldiers into Haza for a full-scale invasion.
