If you didn’t recognize your spouse after a surgery, what would you say to her?
Jason Mortensen first gained national attention when he woke up after hernia repair surgery asking “did a doctor send you?” to his wife who he said was “eye-candy.” In the three-minute video on YouTube, he is coming round from having hernia surgery, before he spots a lady at the side of his bed.
He said: “Did the doctor send you – you are eye candy. Woah – you are the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen, are you a model?”
She replied: “Nope, my name’s Candice I’m your wife.”
Looking shocked he then said: “Oh my god – I hit the jackpot.”
Jason’s surgery was just the latest in a six-year string of procedures to fix tears from a previous hernia surgery. The clip has gone viral and has had over 15 million views as of writing.
