In 2015, Mark Hatzer realized that Sylvia, then 82, was starting experience extreme forgetfulness. So much so that he decided to hospitalize her so that she was safe.

The sickness was so bad that Sylvia forgot she was in a hospital and instead thought she was in a hotel. She stopped recognizing her son Mark when he came to visit, and she thought someone had kidnapped her.
