In an episode that seems straight out of a romantic comedy, a man freshly discharged from the hospital experienced an incredibly sweet and at the same time bizarre moment following a surgical procedure. The effect of the anesthesia made him unable to recognize his own wife, even forgetting their marriage. The situation, captured and shared on social media, quickly caught the attention of millions of users, going viral.
Morgan, an American citizen from Georgia, had just undergone shoulder surgery when, still under the effect of anesthesia, he got into the car with his wife Ashley without any idea of who the woman driving was. His spontaneous and confused reaction was documented in a video posted on TikTok which shows the man, incredulous, asking his wife: «What are you doing here?». Ashley's response, simple yet full of affection, «I came to pick you up after the surgery. Do you want to go home and rest?», marked the beginning of a sweet exchange that touched the hearts of many.
The video continues with Morgan, visibly surprised, complimenting Ashley on her beauty, still incredulous to be married to her. This moment of temporary amnesia proved to be a unique experience for the couple, offering Morgan the opportunity to fall in love with his partner all over again. As the effect of the anesthesia began to fade, Morgan started to remember details of his life, including the existence of their two daughters. Ashley, patient and loving, helped him reconstruct the memories of their bond and the reason for the surgery.
The popularity of the video on TikTok, with over 5.6 million views, testifies to the public's appreciation for this story. Users expressed their admiration and amusement in the comments, with many finding the situation both moving and humorous. Some even joked about wanting to have their partners undergo surgery in hopes of similar compliments: «I'll make sure my husband gets operated on and then tells me I'm very pretty».
