so sad. If you have loved one suffering form Dementia, please saw or put in their pocket, their names and to to contact.
Excellent idea
Your local Alzheimer’s Assoc can give you information about how to get an ID bracelet for your loved one so that all necessary contact and medical data will be available to police in this type of an emergency.
God bless her.
Those new fit bit. Watches have gps trackers in n them too. Different brands. Find a good one for your loved one. I hope she has found her family already.

She was identified.
Considering her age, I would think it safe to assume she has had medical attention. DNA on file?
I hope her family has been or will be located. Prayers for all concerned.
No one has come forward as of yet.
So sad
Where was this picture taken or did she have it on her?
It was given to us by police so I would guess it was taken at the police department.
What part of the country is this? I willshre, but would like to put my FB friends in your area on special alert.
Northeast.
Finger print or teeth. Her family could have been notified in 48 hours easily. Stop pretending to care and actually do your jobs.
Because the police don’t want her to go home? Highly unlikely.

Wishing her the best and I hope her family is located soon!
They found her son
Yes. We have an update in the article.
Hope she finds her Family soon
How sad . Definitely need to invest in an ID bracelet or necklace for and those loved ones with Alzheimer’s. Praying her family sees this post and she’s able to get the love attention and care that she needs
Bracelets and necklaces do no good….they take them off….they need to be with someone 24hrs a day….7 days a week and 365 days per year….
This gives power to the Government agenda to have those ID chips implanted in everyone. How funny that this was a story just weeks ago and now we have Poor Elderly “Madeline” who will now give the argument power.
Thank God it didn’t happen but had she been shot by Law enforcement everyone in her family would have come forward by now to bring a lawsuit against LEO’s.
So her son just happened to lose contact a few years ago & didn’t think maybe to file a missing persons report or ? The story makes it sound like they wern’t even looking for her! I hope thats not true.
