Bugün öğrendim ki: "Fifty First Dates" filmi aslında gerçek bir hikayeden esinlenmiştir. Michelle Philpots iki araba kazası geçirdi ve sonraki birkaç yıl içinde hafıza sorunları geliştirdi ve sonunda 1994 ve öncesinde takılıp kaldığı her sabah uyanmasına neden oldu.
The Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore movie _50 First Dates_ might be a romantic comedy, but if you imagine a life where you were unable to create new memories, it probably wouldn't be all that funny. And that's reality for Michelle Philpots from Spalding in Lincolnshire, whose memory has been wiped every single day for the past 23 years, just like Barrymore's character Lucy in the 2004 film.

The first accident took place in 1985 when Philpots was on a motorbike, and five years later, when in a car in 1990, she was involved in a second crash. She traumatized to her head in both incidents. Four years later, in 1994, doctors diagnosed as Michelle with epilepsy a result of the head injuries she had sustained, and from there things got steadily worse. Michelle was experiencing regular seizures, as well as beginning to become forgetful. Her memory got so bad, in fact, that she was eventually fired from her office job after she photocopied a single document over and over again one day, simply having forgotten she'd done it. And now Michelle is stuck in 1994. Her memories don't go past that year, meaning she wakes up every day thinking she's 23 years younger than her actual 53 years, believing that John Major is still Prime Minister and that _Forrest Gump_ is a new movie, reports _[TODAY](http://www.today.com/id/38695449/ns/today-today_news/t/groundhog-day- real-woman-stuck/
