PUBLISHED OCT 5, 2018

An elderly couple who had planned on taking a quick trip to a local hospital ended up driving through three states after they could not remember the way back to their east Tennessee home.

The authorities eventually tracked down and found Tony and Delores Amaral, both in their 80s, in Atlanta, more than five days after they had set out in their car for the trip to the local hospital.

People reported the couple's daughter, Lisa Oelerich, speculating how such an incident could have unfolded. She revealed how it was pretty clear that her parents suffered from memory loss, telling People that the whole ordeal has been "overwhelming."

She said that one of them possibly fell inside their home, resulting in the other getting in the car to transport their partner for treatment at the UT Medical Center.
