Doctors believe the amnesia might have been caused by antibodies from her tumor.

She was taken to a local hospital where she was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. Doctors told her that antibodies from the tumor may have caused the amnesia. Friends at the hospital set up this Facebook page.

"Sam" believed she might be Australian due to a possible slight accent. She was added to an Australian missing persons directory. She was also added to Interpol's missing persons database.
