American Idol’s Chris Medina

A recent audition on American Idol Season 10 touched the hearts of many. Chris Medina, a 26-year old male came into the audition room to sing for his fiancĂ©e, Juliana Ramos. They have been together for eight years and engaged for almost three years. After their engagement, they planned to get married two years after. However, this plan was ruined because of an accident that happened on Oct. 2, 2009. Sadly, she was involved in a terrible accident that caused a traumatic brain injury. Even though the doctors said there seemed to be no way she would wake he continued to have faith and believe she would come back to him. Luckily enough, she woke up a month and a half later. Even though she is awake, her body is in a wheel chair and seems to shake from time to time, an action she can’t control. The great thing about this story is that even through all this, Chris Medina has stayed with her to care for her. In sickness and in health. Have a listen to his audition and see if it touches your hearts, like it did to many others.
