Nining Sunarsih the 52-year-old Indonesian woman who was on vacation in Sukabumi, West Java, when she was swept away by a wave on Citepus Beach, has been found.
The lady who was presumed dead by authorities when she was washed away by the strong wave in January last year, was found alive on that same beach after 18 months. Eyewitnesses said they heard the woman screaming and waving her hands for help but they were too scared to help her.
When she went missing, search and rescue operations didn’t find any sign of her until a week after her disappearance, a dead body was found on the area. They called on Nining’s family to come and identify the body, and even though it was in a very bad condition, her relatives were convinced that it wasn’t her, because Nining's birthmark was missing and the fingernails were different.
Reports said that her family who never gave up hope of finding her alive, returned to the same beach on Saturday after her father began having mysterious dreams and found her lying unconscious on the sand, wearing the same clothes as on the night she vanished. The family began searching in the early evening and at first were unsuccessful, but discovered Sunarsih around midnight.
She was found by her sister, who was one of the people who watched her disappear. According to reports Sunarsih was unconscious, fully clothed, and around 500m (1,600ft) from where she initially vanished.
At the hospital, doctors said that her vital signs are stable and she is expected to make a full recovery, she has regained consciousness and has been able to eat and drink, but have not made any comment since she reappeared ashore. Hopefully she will be able to tell her family where she have been since more than one year.
