The thread title should say HispFemale right or am I missing something?

Yep that should be corrected my mistake.

No worries. I just clicked on it expecting to see a guy and I was like huh? Haha

Poor woman. I hope she receives the care she needs. Quite a bit underweight. I wonder why they could not ID her eye color?

Surely one or more cameras have some footage of the drop-off. Even if she needs LTC, being abandoned without ID/health status being shared is callous.

I hope a social worker or ombudsman is advocating for her.
MOO

She looks a bit older even. I’d widen the age range to about 80. Maybe because she’s very thin? I know you get thinner as you age. My great grandmother is 100. She’s 4’11” and maybe about 55-60 pounds. She can barely hold herself up. She’s using a walker. She needs a wheelchair for distances longer than maybe 100 feet. I’m 30 pounds heavier than this Doe, same height, still thin. My god-grandmother is a very tall woman, about 6’6”. She’s maybe 140 pounds. She’s 86. That’s just a thing with older people I guess.

Probably because she might be blind or have cataracts which can make the eyes look a bit different.

Still no updated information, boosting for visibility. This is someone's grandma... I hope the hospital has moved her somewhere comfortable by now.
