## Resource

An elderly couple, Colin and Claudette, have vanished after fleeing their aged care facility—both suffering from dementia and medical vulnerabilities. Last seen driving west on the Monash Freeway, they’re feared lost or in danger, with police urging the public to report any sightings. Their daughter says they were overwhelmed by the facility and simply wanted to be home together. Authorities confirm they stopped at a pharmacy, but medication may not last long. This isn’t their first escape attempt. The family is pleading for their safe return. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
