The Woman Who Woke Up in the Future: Part 2

BBC World Service - Outlook, The Woman Who Woke Up in the Future: Part 2

Naomi Jacobs went to bed aged 32 but woke up thinking she was 15, her adult memories gone

Naomi Jacobs went to bed a 32-year-old woman and woke up with her adult memories gone, believing instead that she was a teenage schoolgirl.

One morning Naomi Jacobs woke up with a rare form of amnesia - she had lost all her adult memories, and although she was 32 - she thought she was a teenager again, utterly bewildered by how she had ended up in the future. Naomi had to rediscover the person she grew up to be, and what she found out wasn't promising.
