TWO HEARTS SEEK LOVE ONE BRAIN FORGOT
Is it possible to find the same love twice in a lifetime? Jeff
Ingram and Penny Hansen were about to find out. If they were
going to stay together, they would have to get to know each
other all over again. For Jeff, there was no past.
But Penny knew Jeff in another life -- before he went missing
and wound up on a downtown Denver street with no memory.
''Dissociative fugue,'' doctors called it, a rare form of
amnesia caused by stress or trauma that can influence people to
travel far away from their homes. . . .
''He is the same person,'' Penny said optimistically. ''He just
can't remember he is.'' . . .
The old Jeff hated green peppers and turnips. The new Jeff loves
them. His likes now are based largely on food he ate in the
hospital. . . .
He still smokes though, just as much as he did before. Penny
jokes that she wishes she could have told him he never smoked.
