HOUSTON - A once-worried mother is now expressing relief after her son was found safe. 
 
 "He doesn't even know where he was, he doesn't know," said Monica Conyers, Carl Conyer's mother. "So we're just trying to sort it all out right now." 
 
 Although, 21-year-old Carl Conyers is now back home, many questions still remain, including where was he and why he disappeared. 
 
 Monica said that Conyers doesn't appear to know anything and will be checked out by doctors soon. 
 
 "He's limping, I don't know what happened to him. I don't know where his mental state is. It just doesn't seem like my child, I just want to get him all checked out," she said. 
 
 Two days after the University of Houston student went missing from his off-campus apartment, sparking a search, police said he turned up early Friday morning at that very same apartment. 
 
 Ezequiel Mendez, a neighbor said, "It would be the same thing if I was missing. My family would be worried sick. Just great to hear that he's back with them." 
 
 Police said Conyers' girlfriend told them that he was at the apartment around 1:30 in the morning. 
 
 Officers arrived and eventually brought him to the Houston Police Department for questioning, before being reunited with his family. 
 
 His mother is thankful he's back home and describes their first exchange when she saw him. 
 
 She recalled telling Conyers "That I love him and that I'm sorry (for) whatever happened to him. I don't care, I just love you and want to you to go home." 
 
 Conyers is the son of U.S. Rep. John Conyers, a Democrat who represents the 13th Congressional District of Michigan and the longest-serving current member of the House of Representatives. 
 
 A spokesperson for Conyers told KPRC 2 News, "Rep. Conyers has been in touch with his family and is happy his son is safe and uninjured." 
 
 According to Houston police, Conyers was last seen Tuesday afternoon by one of his roommates at their apartment in the 3700 block of Southmore Boulevard. 
 
 Police said Thursday that while the image they released of Carl Conyers showed him with a beard, investigators believed that he shaved his beard before his disappearance. Corey Gentry, his friend, described that as "unusual behavior." 
 
 "He loved that beard," Gentry said. "He was known around campus for that beard. Everything he needs to go somewhere, every form of transportation, was in his room -- his IDs, his credit cards, his cash, his bike, his keys, everything was in his room." 
 
 "He was cooking. I greeted him. I noticed he was hiding his face a little bit. I didn't think too much of it," Chett Bell said. 
 
 Carl Conyers' girlfriend, Daisha Lewis, said that he was last seen going into his room and closing the door. When she went into her boyfriend's room Wednesday, she said it was a mess. She said she found a backpack full of clothes. She said his cellphone and an envelope full of family pictures were also left behind. 
 
 Conyers' friends describe him as a good guy who is very involved in school and had no enemies. 
 
 "He doesn't seem like the type of person who would just leave. So I have no idea what happened to him," his best friend Jawan Givens said.

 Monica Conyers flew into Houston on Thursday afternoon. 
 
 "This is not like my son. He left everything in his apartment. His cellphone, computer and laptop and the car is still there," she said. 
 
 Texas EquuSearch and the FBI were both asked to assist in the search. 
 
 They spent Thursday passing out missing-person flyers and searching across the area.
