PIKE COUNTY, AR – A local woman found alive after being missing for four days is being examined at a Hot Springs hospital.

Theresa Jackson, 73, was found early this afternoon by a volunteer who noticed a broken branch and took a closer look, finding her underneath a brush pile.

The woman was suffering from hypothermia as she was taken from the scene in a helicopter.

Her relieved family members hugged one another at the scene.

Jackson, who suffers from Alzheimer’s, had disappeared from her home on Oct. 10.

There’s no further word on her condition.
