In the movie The Vow, a married woman suffers a brain injury in a car accident. When she wakes up in the hospital, she has no memory of her husband. She had lost two years of short-term memory wiping out the period where she met, fell in love with, and married her husband. The movie is based on the true story of Kim and Krickitt Carpenter. Their story is even more compelling than the movie. Two months after they were married is when the horrific accident took place.
