Well this would be a radical shift. Decades or centuries of years would alter their personality, relationships and pretty much everything about them. Laura and Logan would be different because now he would be a distant memory. All relationships would start anew. Not from zero but perhaps from less then zero as emotional needs have changed.

It would mean a new Laura who now suffers from the detachment and scars usually attributed to an immortal.
