Man with Alzheimer's Remarries Wife Again after Being With Her for 12 Years
News 18Up until now, we have come across multiple movies showing how one loses their memory but ended up falling in love with the same person all over again. Well, this romance films plot became a reality for a couple in Connecticut, US, who got married all over again when the husband, who suffers from Alzheimer’s, proposed to his wife another time. 56-year-old Peter Marshall has been battling with Alzheimer’s for the last few years and often forgets that he is married to Lisa for 12 years. Lisa told the local news outlet that last December, the couple was watching TV when a wedding scene came on and suddenly Peter said to her, “Let’s do it.” Lisa was puzzled and asked him what did he wanted to do, to which he pointed to the TV screen. Lisa described the second wedding ceremony as magical and added that she couldn’t remember seeing him so happy for so long.
