What happens when a living person is found but unable to identify themselves? In 2004, an older woman is found living in a beach park in Honolulu, Hawaii. Diagnosed with both dementia and schizophrenia, she is unable to provide her own name. We talk about her case as well as what happens with living Does and why it’s often difficult to identify them.
