James Foley wrote this letter to his family after Isis capture
The parents of James Foley, the American journalist murdered by Isis, have released a letter written by their son during his captivity.
All letters Jim wrote to his family were confiscated by the jihadists in Syria - but last June he asked a fellow hostage, who was about to be released, to commit a letter to memory.
In the dictated message, which his family posted on the Facebook page Find James Foley, the journalist speaks about how he is coping with being held hostage and his yearning desire for freedom.
I have had weak and strong days. We are so grateful when anyone is freed; but of course, yearn for our own freedom. We try to encourage each other and share strength, Foley says.
Foley was kidnapped in 2012 while covering the Syrian uprising; on Tuesday Isis posed a video online showing his killing.
