Shen Lan, 38, has committed himself to looking after Li Mei for the past 10 years in the Zhejiang province of eastern China.
In 2014, just before their wedding, Li suffered severe injuries in a traffic accident. She was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), where doctors issued three critical illness notices.
Li incurred significant damage to the left side of her brain. The medical team informed Shen that even if they managed to save her life, she might remain in a vegetative state.
Desperate for her recovery, Shen pleaded with them to do everything possible to save her and cared for her every day. Remarkably, Li awakened after three months.
