CENTRALIA, Wash. - Lewis County authorities are seeking the public's help in locating a 33-year-old Centralia woman who has disappeared under unusual circumstances and may be suffering from postpartum depression, according to her family.oher
Elizabeth Pham, a mother of three, reportedly left her home on Saturday morning and was last seen later that day getting out of a taxi and then ordering a meal at a restaurant at Exit 59 off Interstate 5, about 20 miles south of Chehalis, said Chief Stacy Brown of the Lewis County Sheriff's Office.
Pham was wearing only socks, purple pajama pants and a pink-and-red top when she was last seen, according to witnesses. She may later have been spotted sitting under a bridge near the Cowlitz River.
Elizabeth’s vehicle was located, unlocked with the keys inside, along southbound I-5 near near Toledo on Saturday evening by the Washington State Patrol.
Investigators believe Pham left her vehicle along I-5 Saturday morning, then walked to GeeCees Truck Stop at Exit 57, where she attempted to get a ride with a truck driver who was heading to Redding, Calif. An employee of GeeCees stopped her from getting into the truck cab and called a taxi for her, Brown said.
Once the taxi arrived, Pham asked the taxi driver to take her to Olympia. The taxi driver first stopped at Pham’s vehicle so she could retrieve personal items from it. The taxi driver described her behavior as "unusual and confused."
The taxi driver then dropped Pham off at the Shell station at Exit 59. She went into the Shell station, but did not buy anything and stayed in the store for about 20 minutes. Witnesses say she then walked to Beasley’s restaurant, where she ordered a meal...

Not sure if older women do it, but for decades, I have seen college age girls wearing pajamas in public, and it was just a fashion choice.
Doesn’t look like what I’d expect a Pham to look like.
she lives in washington..... reason enough for depression
Hearing voices and paranoia doesn’t sound like manic depression. Sounds a lot more like Schizophrenia, and folks like that can be a real danger to folks around them if they won’t stay on their medications.
No one noticed she was in PJs?
They could have thought she was going to Wal Mart. But seriously I hope they find this young lady quickly and in good health.
Bump.
Prayers up that she will be found quickly- and that God will send legions of angels to help her and protect her now- in the name of Christ Jesus.
She is very pretty-and being at a truck stop in pjs and possibly being very disoriented-scary. She needs prayers!
Please keep us updated if you can. Thanks.

Might want to check local Walmart. Sounds like Standard Dress in many of them.
It is worth a shot to post anywhere you can. It certainly won’t hurt. I don’t do FB but I know things go viral there pretty quickly. I’m sure that avenue is being explored. That said, sending out good thoughts, and prayers for this lady’s safe return.
This sounds very bad. This woman and her family need our prayers badly.
Keep hope alive.My sister went missing for 3 days.She was diagnosed Paranoid Schizophrenia.We searched everywhere.I even had a dream of her calling to me for help in a field so we search the fields.She had no shoes,no coat and did not take her pocketbook.On the 3rd day she called at night and asked us to pick her up.She was trying to hitch a ride barefoot at a major intersection when we got there.Where was she all that .She was next door to my other sister’s apartment.She asked to borrow a cup of sugar and she stayed there-a total stranger.I am going to pray for her SaveFerris.
Do you really think that comment is funny in this context? Such an odd fella you are.
I remember dark wood exterior.
Most likely a browser issue. Everything is formatted on mine. I'm using chrome. When I use internet explorer, I had formatting issues. Firefox worked well for me as well.
Mid-day bump.
Glad you found her alive, BTW. Wow.
I hope she’s ok but it is a familiar scenario that plays out badly too often.
Yah, I’m afraid so, too. Well, here’s to that 1% chance.
Thanks to all who replied today, too.
“No one noticed she was in PJs?”
Some people do that. If they’re expecting to go from one heated garage to another, they’ll have on PJs, flip-flops and a light coat in the dead of winter. Works okay until the car breaks down in the blizzard.
