Florida Man Wakes Up with Amnesia; Now Speaks Only Swedish
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (AP) — Doctors are looking into the mystery of a Florida man who awoke speaking only Swedish, with no memory of his past, after he was found unconscious four months ago at a Southern California motel.
Michael Boatwright, 61, woke up with amnesia, calling himself Johan Ek, The Desert Sun reported.
Boatwright was found unconscious in a Motel 6 room in Palm Springs in February. After police arrived, he was transported to the Desert Regional Medical Center where he woke up.
Hospital officials said Boatwright may have been in town for a tennis tournament in the Coachella Valley. He was found with a duffel bag of exercise clothes, a backpack and tennis rackets. He also carried four forms of identification — a passport, a California identification card, a veteran’s medical card and a Social Security card — all of which identified him as Michael Thomas Boatwright.
Palm Springs police have documented his information in case anyone lists Boatwright as missing or wanted, authorities said.
In March, doctors diagnosed Boatwright with Transient Global Amnesia, a condition triggered by physical or emotional trauma that can last for several months.
The rare mental disorder is characterized by memory loss, “sudden and unplanned travel,” and possible adoption of a new identity, according to the Sun.
After an extensive search, medical personnel and social workers have been unable to locate Boatwright’s next of kin. Authorities are still unsure of his birthplace, listed on his identification as Florida. Photos show him in Sweden at a young age.

I suppose it could have been worse.
He could have been asleep in Luxembourg, accidentally rolled out of his bed, and landed in Germany.

That is fascinating! Losing his primary language and retaining a secondary one from years previously! Now I want to dissect his brain!

I don't speak Swedenese and I'm pretty sure I know what that means.

I'm thinking that Swedish was his primary language and that Johan Ek is his real name. He is probably an illegal immigrant living here under a false identity. Talk about your wetbacks, he must have gotten wet all over. Damn those Swedish Mexicans anyway.

That's racist. Where's the trust? It's like the 1860's all over again. *trauma*
