The Woman Who Woke Up in the Future: Part 1
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.
In 2008, Naomi Jacobs went to bed as a 32-year-old woman. When she woke the following morning, her world had changed. Overnight, her memories had gone. She didn't recognise her home, or her life. Instead, she believed she was a teenage schoolgirl living in 1992. And she was utterly bewildered by how she had ended up in the future.
