On April 30, 2008, Naomi Jacobs, 34 years old, went to bed peacefully and woke up in a different world for herself.
In the morning, the woman was firmly convinced that she was only 15 years old: she had completely forgotten the past 15 years overnight.
Opening her eyes that morning, Naomi saw a strange room in front of her and was very frightened.
She hurried to the bathroom and approached the mirror, where an adult woman was looking back at her.
Reality literally knocked Naomi down. An ambitious student, with the whole world open before her, suddenly found herself as an adult woman, whose life was gradually declining.
Friends took Mrs. Jacobs to doctors. After several tests, a diagnosis was made: extremely rare transitory global amnesia.
With this condition, a person doesn’t lose acquired skills.
Naomi remembered how to drive a car, knew the PIN code of a credit card, and other similar things.
But her global memories had completely disappeared, 15 years vanished overnight. Fortunately, a true solution to the problem was found.
It took nine weeks of constant therapy and work with doctors for Naomi to come to terms with reality.
But every night until she fully recovered, she went to bed, hoping to wake up again as a student.
No pain, no gain. After passing all the tests, Naomi Jacobs wrote a book that quickly became a bestseller and brought her good money.
