Woman’s Husband Can’t Remember His Wife After Being In A Wreck, Her Half-Sister Still Refuses To Choose Another Song For Her Wedding Other Than Theirs

There are certain things that we attach our memories and emotions to, but seemingly the strongest ones aren’t material things. They say that smells are the strongest memory triggers, but music also has a similar effect.

That’s why people online couldn’t understand how this woman could be so insensitive towards her step-sister by choosing the same wedding song as she had despite her ex-husband getting in a car crash that erased his memories of her.

The song the Original Poster (OP) chose as the first dance song for her wedding is Come What May from the movie Moulin Rouge. There is no particular reason behind the choice as the OP just simply likes it so much and doesn’t want to change it.

But she knows how special the song is to her half-sister. The story is that the half-sister and her now ex-husband first met at that movie and when they went on their first date, it was playing in the restaurant.

Maybe the song wouldn’t be such a big deal if the man hadn’t gotten in a bad wreck that damaged his brain to the point where he doesn’t even remember his wife. What adds to it is that according to the half-sister, when she sang the song to him, it seemed to spark something in his memory.

At first people thought that the OP can play any song she wants at her wedding, but at the same time, they suspected that there is more to the story and the woman is not telling everything. They were right, because when they found out about the tragedy, they called the OP the biggest jerk and were shocked by how insensitive she is to her half-sister.

They also added that the half-sister probably still loves her husband and the reason for divorce was because a single person could be eligible for insurance and because the man lives in a specialized nursing home, it must cost a lot.

Eventually I realized editing gives me the most enjoyment and I'm focusing only on that right now.
