How many times can you fall in love in one month? Once? Twice? If you were Jenny Gisby, 20, from Nottingham, UK, the answer would be four times or more. But Jenny doesn’t fall in love with a new person every time. She falls in love with her boyfriend, Stuart Balmforth, over and over again.
This isn’t a romantic story of a young couple’s relationship. Jenny and Stuart began going out around three years ago. Then one day, Jenny became ill while she was at work. She was sent to hospital and she was in a coma there for some time. The doctors at the hospital said that she had a brain condition. Her legs were affected by the condition and after she woke up from the coma, she couldn’t walk. She also couldn’t remember things – including her parents and her boyfriend. She slowly started to recognise them, but at least once a week, she woke up in the morning with no memory again.
Many young men would break off the relationship if this happened to their girlfriend. But not Stuart. He accepted Jenny’s condition and stayed with her. To solve her memory problems, Jenny decided to keep a memory album with pictures of her and Stuart together. Every important event in their relationship is in the album. If Jenny forgets Stuart, a look at the pictures will always help her remember. Jenny told reporters that every time she saw their memories on the pages, she felt like she was falling in love with Stuart all over again. Hopefully, she will continue falling in love with him for many years to come!
