MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- The search continues for 27-year-old Kelly Dwyer, who has been missing since Friday. On the fifth day since her disappearance, loved ones continued to look to clues as to Dwyer's whereabouts.

Flyers have been distributed throughout Milwaukee since Dwyer disappeared.

Dwyer went out to the bars on Thursday night, and stayed at a friend's house on the East Side that night. She reportedly left her friend's place around 9:00 a.m., and that was the last time anyone saw her.

"Whatever the outcome is, I just need to find her and find out where she is," Dwyer's mother, Maureen told FOX6 News.

Recently, a Facebook page has been created called "Find Kelly Dwyer." During the first 24 hours that the page was up, it received nearly 1,000 "likes" and 20,000 views -- and that number continues to grow.

The page creator is Caroline Andrew, who is a friend of Dwyer's. Andrew told FOX6 News she "created (the page) with sadness, as nobody should ever have to create a missing post for a friend or family member."

However, Andrew says she feels strongly that "social media has become a pivotal tool for our society and there's no such thing as over-sharing."

Words of encouragement and hope are displayed on the page from people across the country.

Andrew stresses the importance of getting Dwyer's face out to the public, and stressed "it is very hard to believe that this disappearance was at her will. I strongly believe that someone has to know something."

Milwaukee police haven't said whether foul play is involved in this case, but Dwyer's mother believes that is the case.
