OK.......I'm confused. Did she suffer from amnesia? Did she know her own name? If not, what did the folks in the Atlanta office "look up"?? If she DID know her name, why was she so........lost??

Sorry......just too many holes in this story.

I believe this story. This woman clearly went off the deep end due to the divorce. I think it's wonderful that Mr. Guess made the leap of faith - true human faith - and believed the woman when she had these memories.

I keep thinking the same thing. She has amnesia and she somehow knew all the information on her account. The firm which handles my accounts asks for my name, Social Security number and PIN. The only thing I can think they were able to help her is if someone in the particular office knew her personally, which is possible.
She might have said that she had an account with the firm and they only have a few offices. The people in the correct office may have remembered the news accounts of the missing woman. If the people at the headquarter were able to work with the woman and take the time with as little information as they had, they deserve a hats off congratulations.

Yeah.
Sounds much like those cutesy or tearjerker stories that constantly make the rounds on the web, made up by well-meaning folks with waaaaaay too much time on their hands.

I dare say that a bedraggled looking person, could flop around in homeless shelters and missions, look for work, beg, seek aid, etc. for years even if she DID know her own name, before anyone necessarily would even check to see if someone by that name were reported missing or wanted by family somewhere.

This even though today, any of us could get on a computer and find persons with similar name, news stories of her vanishing, and the like.

PS Wonder how much money she had? Apparently she also owned a home
