Linda Perhacs‘ friends are celebrating.

Eight months after the “Hey, Who Really Cares” singer was discharged from a residential care facility—during which her friends alleged that they could not get into contact with her—she was found alive July 29. 

“She was found today. She’s safe,” the LAPD Missing Persons Unit confirmed to The Daily Mail the same day. However, officials, citing the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, added, “We can’t share where, as it involves her HIPAA.”

Her former manager Laurel Stearns expressed her gratitude to everyone who supported efforts that led to Perhacs—whom Stearns said was being treated for dementia—safely returning home.

“We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who helped amplify this effort by sharing information, reaching out with support, and expressing genuine care for Linda’s well-being,” the manager shared in a statement to Entertainment Weekly. “The overwhelming response from fans, fellow musicians, journalists, and the broader creative community has been a powerful reminder of the profound impact Linda’s music.”
