Jodi

Jodi is a pregnant woman who had anterograde amnesia after a car accident.

History
Jodi came to the practice for an ultrasound. She was pregnant, but had no memory of that fact as she was in a car accident before finding out she was pregnant that caused anterograde amnesia. Her memory reset every five seconds and she had to be constantly reminded who people were. Her husband, Zach, talked to Sheldon about Jodi's condition and taking care of her. He admitted that sometimes, he wished she'd just died in the accident.

They scheduled a c-section to deliver the baby and Addison said they'd talk about how she'd handle life after the baby was born, but Zach had Violet take Jodi to the waiting room and told Addison that after the baby was born, he was leaving her.

Unable to speak to Zach herself, Violet asked Addison to speak to him. She went to him, but he showed her what his life was like taking care of Jodi. He wanted their kid to have a normal life, but he couldn't take care of them both. While she was there, Jodi went into labor.

She labored, confused the whole time about what was happening. Zach came to the hospital, but stayed out of the room until Addison convinced him to come in and talk Jodi through her labor. Jodi's ICP increased as she labored, but Zach was able to talk her through delivery. He said they needed to give her the baby before she forgot. They gave her the baby right after birth, but she quickly forgot what had happened.

Zach later held the baby and said he'd stay until he couldn't stay anymore.

Romantic
She is married to Zach. When he tells her the story of when they first met, she lights up. He was a waiter when she came in with all her friends. It wasn't even his section, but he worked that table and all he could see was her. He says he knew at that moment he was in love with her. She came into the restaurant every week for two months after that. After they married, they struggled with infertility, but Violet says they never blamed or resented each other for their trouble conceiving.

Familial
Jodi and Zach wanted a baby, but they struggled with infertility. Jodi finally got pregnant shortly before the accident and later gave birth to a healthy baby.
