I learned about him in psych. he had encephalitis which damaged parts of his brain, so he ended up like the guy from momento. very interesting, you can read about him here.

if you have heard of him, any of you know or have any other info about him? i find his case very interesting and would love to learn more.

very interesting article. I'm a little confused on something though, "he seems to know that Deborah lives far away", does that imply that he and his wife are divorced?

from what i remember about the video, he does not live with her, as he requires special care, so i think he must have learned that they were going to live separately before he completely lost his ability to form memories.

EDIT: much more in-depth article
