PER CURIAM

Reversed.

PER CURIAM

The trial court entered a judgment of involuntary commitment based on its finding that appellant suffers from a mental disorder that renders her unable to meet her basic needs.  On appeal, appellant argues that the record lacks sufficient evidence to support the trial court's findings.  The state concedes the insufficiency of the evidence.  On de novo review, we agree that the evidence is insufficient.

Reversed.
