Jenna was 22 when she broke up with Mitchell in February 2020 because she felt too overwhelmed by life. The next day, he went skiing.
At Beaver Mountain, Utah, he attempted a jump on an icy run, his feet slipped out in front of him, and he landed headfirst. He woke up as paramedics were taking him to the hospital, suffering from a severe concussion. And with one detail that changed everything: he had forgotten that his girlfriend had broken up with him the day before.
From the hospital, he called Jenna to pick him up, and he kept texting her and trying to see her. Confused, she thought maybe he had taken the idea of staying friends too seriously. Jenna began to regret her decision, worked up the courage, and asked him if they wanted to date again. That’s when she discovered he didn’t remember the breakup.
Mitchell thought it was very funny, and she felt relieved. They got married seven months after that goodbye he never knew had happened.
