Missing NJ woman found safe 48 hours after disappearing into woods

For forty-eight hours, a 66-year-old Ukrainian-speaking woman named Danyila Nykytyn moved unseen through the woods and roads near her Mount Laurel, New Jersey home — without identification, without a phone, without anyone knowing where she had gone or why. She was found Tuesday morning by a stranger whose alertness and instinct accomplished what organized searching had not. Her return to family is a relief, but the silence surrounding those two days reminds us how thin the membrane is between the familiar and the unknown, and how much of human experience remains beyond explanation.
